BOEM-Oregon Science Exchange Webinar 8

Characterizing Tribal Culture Landscapes

BOEM Marine Archaeologist David Ball will describe three case studies from Native American communities in California, Oregon, and Washington that have been used to develop a methodology and process for working with Native American communities to identify areas of tribal significance that need to be considered in the planning process for offshore renewable energy. This BOEM-funded study was developed through a partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Office of National Marine Sanctuaries and Marine Heritage Program, Tribal Historic Preservation Offices of the Makah Tribe, Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde and Yurok Tribe.

Please join the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) in the next BOEM-Oregon Science Exchange webinar from 10:00-10:30am PDT (17:00-17:30 UTC) on Wednesday, September 21, 2016.  This will be the eighth in the series of webinars on BOEM-funded studies related to renewable energy off the Oregon coast.
