The firm advocates aggressively for our tribal clients’ rights under federal and state environmental statutes. We assist tribes in preparing and pursuing Treatment as a State Status under the Clean Water Act, solid and hazardous waste disposal, and underground fuel storage tanks, among others. We also assist tribes in using federal environmental statutes, such as the National Environmental Policy Act and the California Environmental Quality Act to defeat or limit development projects that threaten tribal culture and resources.
