Army Civil Works Seeking Tribal Input on Draft Partnering Policies

By Lauren LeuckAugust 1, 2023

The Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works continues to modernize how business is conducted with Tribal Nations by strengthening Nation-to-Nation relationships through partnerships. Army Civil Works is currently seeking input and engaging in Tribal consultation on the draft Tribal Partnership Program Engineering Pamphlet and a revised non-Federal interest policy to include partnering with Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) Corporations.

A webinar for each policy will walk through a summary of the policies, overview of any changes, and provide an open forum for comments. These webinars will also be recorded and placed here when they are available. The webinar information is below.
