WHEREAS :

WHEREAS :

PROHIBITING THE DISCHARGE OF POLLUTANTS IN THE HOOPA

VALLEY INDIAN RESERVATION.

The Hoopa Valley Tribe did on June 20, 1972, adopt a

Constitution and Bylaws which was approved by the

Commissioner of Indian Affairs on August 18, 1972,

ratified and confirmed by Congress in 1988 in Section 8

of Public Law 100-580, and Article V of this

Constitution establishes that the Hoopa Valley Tribal

Council is the governing body of the Tribe, and under

Article IX, the Council is authorized to: enforce the

protection of Tribal property, wildlife, and natural

resources, Section 1 (e); safeguard and promote the

safety and general welfare of the Tribe and the

Reservation community, Section 1 (1); and

Prohibiting the discharge of pollutants in the

Reservation is consistent with the goals of the Hoopa

Valley Tribe and the Federal Government for the

protection and enhancement of the quality of the waters

of the Reservation, and

' The Tribal Council has concluded that it is necessary to

exercise Tribal authority over wellhead protection

within the exterior boundaries of the Hoopa Valley

Indian Reservation, and over other activities in order

to protect fundamental Tribal ceremonial, property

interests, water quality, and the public health and

safety; and

THEREFORE BE IT NOW RESOLVED THAT: It shall be the policy of the

Tribe and its authorized entities and departments to

vigorously enforce the provisions of this Ordinance and

the Water Quality Control Plan; continue technical and

legal efforts pertaining to Trinity and Klamath River

water rights and flow allocations; monitor off

Reservation waters which flow into the Reservation for

pollutants; and to coordinate with the off-reservation

jurisdiction of the North Coast Regional Water Quality

Control Board, State Water Quality Control Board, or the

State of California or any of its agencies, with regard

to matters herein regulated by the Tribal authority.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT: The Tribal Council hereby reaffirms

its intent that the provisions of this Ordinance be

enforceable equally against Tribal members, non-members

of the Tribe and upon private lands within the exterior

boundaries of the Reservation, and accordingly the

Tribal Chairman is authorized and directed, in

consultation with the Office of Tribal Attorney and the

Planning Department, to transmit this Ordinance to the

Bureau of Indian Affairs, Indian Health Service, North

Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, Humboldt

County Board of Supervisors, Inter Tribal Fish and Water

Commission, Karok Tribe, Yurok Tribe, Klamath River Task

Force, Trinity River Task Force, and the Environmental

Protection Agency, and to seek the support of those

agencies through a Memorandum of Agreement, Memorandum

of Understanding, or Cooperative Agreement, if

appropriate for this important assertion of Tribal

jurisdiction.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT: The Tribal Council hereby reaffirms

its previous decisions in Resolutions 81-80, 81-90, 81-

91, 81-93, and 94-19; and that it is the intent of the

Hoopa Tribe to prohibit the commercial use of

herbicides, pesticides, and insecticides within the

exterior boundaries of the Reservation unless

specifically exempted; and to oppose the use of such

chemicals outside the exterior boundaries of the

Reservation within watersheds affecting Tribal

resources. ,

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED THAT: Under the authority contained in the

Constitution of the Hoopa Valley Tribe, the Hoopa Valley

Tribal Council hereby enacts this Ordinance prohibiting

the discharge of pollutants in the Hoopa Valley Indian

Reservation,

Section 1. SHORT TITLE, FINDINGS, AND PURPOSE

1.1 Short Title: This Ordinance shall be known as the Pollutant

Discharge Prohibition Ordinance of the Hoopa Valley Tribe.

1.2 Findings: The Hoopa Valley Tribal Council hereby finds as

follows:

(A) Since time immemorial, the Trinity River, its tributary

streams, the streambeds thereof, and the riparian areas

2

>)

POLLUTANT DISCHARGE PROHIBITION ORDINANCE

ORDINANCE NO: 3-95

DATE APPROVED: August 3, 1995

(B)

adjacent thereto, have been natural resources of the

most profound significance to the Hoopa Valley Tribe,

and Hupa people have always used these resources for

cultural, ceremonial, religious, fishery, seasonal

residential, and other purposes fundamental to the

Tribe's way of life.

The people of the Hoopa Valley Tribe have a primary

interest in the protection, control, and conservation of

the water resources which flow into and through the

Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation, and the quality of such

waters must be protected to insure the health, economic,

aesthetic, and cultural well-being of the Hupa People.

Various sites along the Trinity River are or may be

contaminated with toxic or hazardous materials as a

result of previous land use activities, many of which

were authorized without adequate review of impacts or

without adequate disclosure to the Tribe of the

potential for such impacts, and the contamination at

these sites may, if not properly contained and cleaned

up, pose significant risks to water quality and public

health.

The Tribal Council hereby finds that wellhead protection

is a pro-active approach to managing public groundwater

supplies focusing on preventing contaminants from

entering recharge areas to public water supply wells.

Protecting wellheads involves: knowing: the location and

boundaries of the recharge area; identifying any

potential sources of contamination in the recharge area;

controlling those potential sources to prevent the

release of contaminants; and, controlling future land

use in the recharge area to prevent activities which are

known to threaten groundwater quality.

Pursuant to federal law as determined by the US Supreme

Court in such cases as Montana v..United States, 450 US |

544 (1981), the Hoopa Valley Tribe possesses inherent

sovereign authority to regulate on-Reservation pollution

discharges that affect fundamental Tribal interests and

the public health and safety, including when such

activities are conducted by non-members of the Tribe on

privately owned land within the Reservation.

Under 1988 amendments to the Clean Water Act, 33 U.S.C.

1377, Indian Tribes are entitled to be certified by the

US Environmental Protection Agency as authorized to

exercise exclusive jurisdiction (Tribal primacy) over

all on-Reservation surface and ground water quality

matters, including over on-Reservation portions of

POLLUTANT DISCHARGE PROHIBITION ORDINANCE

waters, such as those of the Trinity and Klamath Rivers,

that also flow through other jurisdictions.

(G) Regulation or elimination of all discharges of

pollutants into the waters of the Hoopa Valley Indian

Reservation is necessary at this time in order to

maintain the quality of those waters for their

beneficial uses by members of the Hoopa Valley Tribe and

residents of the Reservation.

(H) Such protection of Reservation waters is not adequately

provided for under existing legislation, and such

protection will be furthered by the passage, adoption,

and implementation of this Ordinance.

Purpose: The purpose of this Ordinance is to exercise

comprehensive Tribal regulatory authority over all surface and

groundwater matters, and to protect fundamental Tribal

cultural, ceremonial, religious, fisheries, seasonal

residential, public health and safety, and water quality

issues by ensuring adequate drinking water, protecting

beneficial uses, prohibiting all point source discharges and

restricting non-point source discharges of pollutants within

the exterior boundaries of the Hoopa Valley Reservation.

Scope: The provisions of this Ordinance shall apply to all

existing and proposed point and non-point pollution discharges

into surface or ground waters, and to all activities which

have the potential to affect cultural, ceremonial, religious,

fisheries, seasonal residential, public health and safety,

water quality, and other fundamental interests of the Tribe,

including such activities conducted by non-members of the

Tribe or on privately owned lands. Activities to be regulated

hereunder include but are not limited to:

(A) Landfills and open dumps;

(B) Storage of animal waste;

(C) Automobile graveyards and junkyards;

(D) Landfilling of sludge or septic system waste;

{E) Individual, residential, industrial, commercial, or

agricultural sewage treatment facilities;

(F) Individual, residential, industrial, commercial, fire

protection, or agricultural water control devices

including but not limited to treatment facilities or

systems, dams, reservoirs, ponds, pools, tanks, welis,

pipelines, flumes, canals, and intake or diversion

systems;

General Water Quality Criteria: The following criteria set

forth limits or levels of water quality characteristics for

surface waters to ensure the reasonable protection of

beneficial uses from degradation or unreasonable effect of

point and nonpoint pollution which may be a result of any

cause including agricultural, mining, construction, urban

runoff, silviculture, salt. water intrusion, hydrological

modification and residential activities. The water quality

standards included in this Ordinance are developed on a

Reservation wide basis. .

(A) Color: Waters shall be free of coloration that causes

nuisance or adversely affects beneficial uses.

(B) Tastes and Odors: Waters shall not contain taste or

odor-producing substances in concentrations that impart

undesirable tastes or odors to fish flesh or other

* edible products of aquatic origin, that cause nuisance

or adversely affect beneficial uses.

(C) Floating Material: Waters shall not contain floating

material, including solids, liquids, foams, and scum, in

concentrations that cause nuisance, adversely affect

beneficial uses, or degrade water quality.

{(D) Suspended Material: Waters shall not contain suspended

material in concentrations that cause nuisance or

adversely affect beneficial uses.

Settleable Material: Waters shall not contain

Substances in concentrations that result in deposition

of material that causes nuisance or adversely affect

beneficial uses.

Oil and Grease: Waters shall not contain oils, greases,

waxes, or other materials in concentrations that result

in a visible film or coating on the surface of the water

or on objects in the water, that cause nuisance, or that

otherwise adversely affect beneficial uses.

Biostimulatory Substances: Waters shall not contain

biostimulatory substances in concentrations that promote

aquatic growths to the extent that such growths cause

nuisance or adversely affect beneficial uses. .

Sediment: The suspended sediment load and suspended

sediment Gischarge rate of surface waters shall not be

altered in such a manner as to cause nuisance or

adversely affect beneficial uses.

Turbidity: Turbidity shall not be increased more than

twenty (20) percent above naturally occurring background

levels.

pH: The pH shall not be depressed below 7.0 nor raised

above 8.5. .

Dissolved Oxygen: Dissolved oxygen concentrations shall

not be reduced below the following minimum levels at any

time.

Waters designated COLD .......--- 202 ee eee 6.0 mg/l

Waters designated SPWN ..........2--+ ee ee eee 7.0 mg/l

Waters designated SPWN during critical

spawning and egg incubation periods ... ... 2.0 mg/l

Bacteria: The bacteriological quality of waters of the

Reservation shall not be degraded beyond natural

background levels. In waters designated for contact

recreation (Reci), the median fecal coliform

concentration based on a minimum of not less than five

samples for any 30-day period shall not exceed 50/100

mi, nor shall more than ten percent of total samples

during any 30-day period exceed 400/100 ml.

Temperature: The natural receiving water temperature of

intrastate waters shall not be altered unless it can be

demonstrated to the satisfaction of the Tribal Council

that such alteration in temperature does not adversely

affect beneficial uses. ,

ORDINANCE NO: 3-95

DATE APPROVED: August 3, 1995

At no time or place shall the temperature of any water be

increased by more than 5° fF above natural receiving water

temperature.

Toxicity: All waters shall be maintained free of toxic

Substances in concentrations that are toxic to, or that

produce detrimental physiological responses in human,

plant, animal, or aquatic life. Compliance with this

objective will be determined by use of indicator

organisms, analyses of species diversity, population

density, growth anomalies, bioassays of appropriate

duration or other appropriate methods as specified by

the Riparian review Committee.

(1) The survival of aquatic life in surface waters

subjected to a waste discharge, or other

controllable water quality factors, shall not be

less than that for the same water body in areas

unaffected by the waste discharge, or when

necessary for other control water that is

consistent with the requirements for "experimental

water" as described in Standard Methods for the

Examination of Water and Waste Water, latest

edition. As a minimum, compliance with this

objective as stated in the previous sentence shall

be evaluated with a 96-hour bioassay.

(2) Effluent limits based upon acute bioassays of

effluents will be prescribed where appropriate,

additional numerical receiving water standards for

specific toxicants will be established as

sufficient data become available, and source

control of toxic substances will be encouraged.

Pesticides: No individual pesticide or combination of

pesticides shall be present in concentrations that

adversely affect beneficial uses. There shall be no

bioaccumulation in pesticide concentrations found in

bottom sediments or aquatic life.

6.3 Water Quality Criteria for Toxic Pollutants: The potential

benefits to human health of establishing toxic criteria

include: (1) Reducing the potential health risks to persons

eating fish contaminated with toxic pollutants, (2) reducing

the potential health risks to persons drinking contaminated

drinking water, and (3) reducing the potential health risks to

swimmers from dermal exposure to contaminated surface waters.

The criteria listed below consist of two measures. The “Water

and Organisms” measure represents the maximum ambient water

concentration for consumption of both contaminated water and

fish or aquatic organisms and to all water designated MUN.

The “Organisms Only” measure represents the maximum ambient

water concentration for consumption of fish or other aquatic

organisms and applies to ail waters without an MUN

designation. The exposure to concentrations above the

following specified criteria shall not exceed a thirty (30)

day duration. All concentrations are micrograms per liter

(ug/L), except asbestos which is million fibers per liter

(MFL).
