MEMORANDUM

TO:

Oneida Business Committee

FROM:

Jo Anne House, Chief Counsel

DATE:

May 3, 2023

SUBJECT: Research Request – Webster. House, Stevens – Bean Rematriation

The above individuals have requested authorization to conduct research on the Oneida

Reservation. The research proposes to “document oral history of how Native American

seedkeepers and communities received bean seeds and other seeds back into their communities.”

The researchers will conduct individual interviews and focus group sessions. Sample questions

would include –

Does your family have a history of growing beans?

How did you or your family acquire your bean seeds?

Do you have any stories you would like to share about bean seeds or other seeds?

The Institutional Research Boards for University of Minnesota Duluth, University of Wisconsin

Oshkosh and University of Wisconsin Green Bay have identified under the revised-NIH rules

that no IRB review is required.

The Oneida Nation has adopted resolution # BC-05-08-19-A, Research Requests: Review and

Approval to Conduct. This research request involves conducting interviews and focus groups,

recording those activities, and reporting the findings. Members participating will be required to

consent to be interviewed and that the information and/or interview may be utilized to produce a

“research paper, research article, book, website, and/or film.” This would be like the elder

interview videos the Nation had undertaken in the past and a new group of interviews is being

conducted. These videos appear on a YouTube channel.

I have found nothing in this research proposal that would cause harm to the Nation, its

community or otherwise misrepresent the culture or history. Unlike other research projects, this

is not a focused activity to produce a specific product, it is intended to create a research database

for the individual. As such, the request is rather broad.

Recommendation: Motion to approve the “Bean Rematriation” research study by Dr.’s

Webster, House, and Stevens and to request the researchers share the results with the Oneida

Nation Museum for use in other research or projects.

RE: Institutional Review Board (IRB) Application to Oneida Nation – Bean Rematriation

Shekóli Dr. House,

We are writing to request approval from the Oneida Nation for a project to gather oral history

stories from Oneida tribal members and extended Indigenous community members. There are

three of us on the research team representing three different universities. All three of us are

enrolled Oneida Nation citizens. We have each obtained exemptions from our respective

institutions for this research based on the classification of our work as the collection of oral

history and not as a study of human subjects.

Our goals with this project are to capture stories of Indigenous seed varieties coming home to our

people, with a focus on beans. We want to gather historical and contemporary stories from

people about the process of being reunited with those bean relatives. We believe that being

reunited with our seeds is a way for us to simultaneously reconnect with our language, history,

culture, and community.

More information about our project is included in the exemption application from UMD attached

to this letter. We are also including the exemption notifications from our respective institutions

informing us we are exempt from those IRB processes. In addition, we are including our semi

structured interview questions and the consent form for participants to sign.

Thank you for your time and consideration.

participation. Participants can end the interview or leave the focus group at

any time without any penalties. Any data collected about the participants will

be provided by the participants. Interview questions and focus group

discussions will center on bringing seeds home to their communities. The

interview questions and focus group discussions will take place predominately

on the Oneida Reservation in Wisconsin.

1.3

Data and/or specimens

● Data and/or Specimen Collection and Analysis

Responsiveness – Availability to the public and timeous reaction to the needs and opinions of

the public.

How outcome/Goal Supports the Good Governance Principle:

Our Oneida Veterans are respected within our community because of our commitment and

service to the Oneida Nation and the United States. It is through our service being given back to

our community which solidifies this respect. Our individual and organizational involvement

within our community shows both our honor and pleasure to be a part of the Oneida

Community. Our efforts to respect ourselves and our community encourages our veterans to

want to be a part and also share our participation for the benefit of the whole. Furthermore,

we as Veterans are an integral part of the Oneida Community within which we live and serve.

Accomplishments Regarding the Outcome/Goal:

ONVAC remains engaged in extracurricular activities within our Oneida Community and

continuously assists the Veterans Service Officer with veterans meetings, celebrations, funerals,

meals, community events (annual Christmas tree lighting), color guard responsibilities at tribal

How Outcome/Goal Supports the Good Governance Principle:

Out of RESPECT, our veterans, their respective families and our community continue to expect

our participation in all veteran associated and community activities, programs and services.

Accomplishments Regarding the Outcome/Goal:

Continuous VISIBILITY and PARTICIPATION: Within proper guidelines, our veterans maintained

their respective roles within the community during the Covid-19 Pandemic and continue to do

so today. Our ONVAC members support activities of the Nation’s Tribal Action Plan (TAP) by

participating in their efforts to make drug and alcohol issues better recognized and understood.

We continue our efforts in maintaining the Veterans Wall site, which incidentally, the Oneida

Land Commission just recently transferred the management of the site to the ONVAC and have

started the process by which the location will receive an official name.

organizations and their membership as well as the public will be included in site plan reviews

periodically.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

Prior to the Covid-19 Pandemic “closure” of the ONVAC, a DRAFT Site Plan was completed by

the Oneida Planning Department. This Plan will continue to be the basic footprint to all of the

enhancements to be made within the site. Currently, the enhancements will include positioning

of two additional memorials, one to Dr. Josiah Powless and the second to the Oneida Code

Talkers. A second Eagle will also be placed within the site. Upgrades are currently being made

to the memorial wall and replacement of the individual “remembrance bricks” will also be

replaced. In addition, sidewalks, lighting and “other” enhancements are proposed for the site.

EXPECTATIONS/FUTURE PLANS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

It is the intent of ONVAC to continuously work to improve the Memorial Site, including the

honoring and recognition of our Oneida Warriors past, present and future. We are also very

PROUD to have the Wisconsin State Military Order of the Purple Heart Monument within our

Memorial Site, with special thanks to the unconditional commitment by our former ONVAC

Member and Commander of the Wisconsin Military Order of the Purple Heart, our comrade

and colleague, Mr. George Greendeer.

Status report of Three-Year Outcomes/Goals

Outcome/Goal # 1

One of the Commissions goals is to develop positive relationships with the Oneida

Community

IS THIS A LONG-TERM OR QUARTERLY GOAL?

Long-term

GOOD GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLE:

Participation - Fostering a system in which the public feels that they are part of decisionmaking processes, including freedom of expression and assiduous concern for the best

interests of the Tribe and community in general

HOW OUTCOME/GOAL SUPPORTS THE GOOD GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLE:

The Oneida Police Commission is appointed by the Oneida Business Committee and

entrusted with oversight of the Oneida Police Department. Duties include evaluating

appointments and promotions, standard operating procedures, and work standards

(SOP/WS), Memorandum of Agreements (MOA), expenditures and grant opportunities.

The Commission is a “checks and balances” of the Police Department because it is

composed of Tribal members who are vested in the Oneida Community, which in turn

encourages citizen input. The Oneida Police Department had several unfilled police officer

positions. To address the vacant positions, the Commission has given approval to hire nontribal members at entry level positions.

Public Packet

119 of 185

ACCOMPLISHMENTS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

The Police Commission has open mandatory monthly meeting with the Police Chief and/or

Assistant Police Chief to review and approve the Oneida Police Departments monthly

report and to keep the Police Commission informed of all the duties and responsibilities of

the department and provide guidance. In accordance with the Law Enforcement

Ordinance, the Commission worked with the Police Department to approve and fill vacant

positions and approve standard operating procedures and work standards (SOP/WS).

EXPECTATIONS/FUTURE PLANS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

In the future, the Police commission will continue to develop a positive relationship with the

community and the Police Department. The Police Commission can plan and attend

events together showing support.

Outcome/Goal # 2

Develop three community events to promote good relations between the community,

Police Commission and Police Department while measuring attendance at events.

IS THIS A LONG-TERM OR QUARTERLY GOAL?

Long-term

GOOD GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLE:

Responsiveness - Availability to the public and timeous reaction to the needs and opinions

of the public

HOW OUTCOME/GOAL SUPPORTS THE GOOD GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLE:

The Oneida Police Commissioners are dedicated to building a strong community built on

Tsi? Niyukwaliho’*ta by participating in community events and sharing our knowledge and

experience. The Oneida Police Commission and Oneida Police Department collaborates

with other tribal entities and other municipalities to strengthen our community.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

The community event aspect of this goal has been placed on hold due to the COVID-19

pandemic, however, it remains a priority for the Commission and we hope to resume these

activities as soon as it safe to do so.

EXPECTATIONS/FUTURE PLANS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

The Oneida Police Commission will continue to collaborate with other tribal entities and

municipalities. We can also investigate alternative methods to reach out to community in a

safe manner during the pandemic.

GOOD GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLE:

Rule of Law - Ensuring the rules are known and applied equally to all with clear appeal (if

needed)and are enforced by an impartial regulatory body, for the full protection of Oneida

Nation stakeholders

HOW OUTCOME/GOAL SUPPORTS THE GOOD GOVERNANCE PRINCIPLE:

Regulations set forth standard expectations and minimum requirements to accomodate

the creation of consistent and repeatable processes. Documented and up-to-date

regulations also allow for effective compliance audits, accountability, and efficiencies.

ACCOMPLISHMENTS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

The three remaining chapters, General, Revenue Audit, and Definitions, are being finalized

and prepared for OGC review and approval. Draft enforcement regulations were reviewed

and updated and are begin prepared for OGC Review. Additionally, Sportsbook regulation

revisions have been discussed with Gaming Management, as well the State (informally). The

final revision document is being prepared to share with the State and initiate formal

revisions. OGC-Compliance continues to work on these revisions.

EXPECTATIONS/FUTURE PLANS REGARDING THE OUTCOME/GOAL:

Once the remaining OGMICS sections are completed, Employee Licensing, License

Hearings, Administrative/Staffing, Raffles, and Enforcement regulations will be prioritized,

reviewed and revised so they are brought up to date, and submitted for approval.

Requests

The only requests at this time are for the Oneida Business Committee to include the OGC in

the onboarding/training of upcoming newly elected OBC officers/members. We also

request that OBC-OGC quarterly meetings resume in FY2024.

Other

• The OGC, Gaming Management, and the State Office of Indian Gaming and

Regulatory Compliance met (informally) on February 15 to discuss Sportsbook

regulatory changes and operational status after a year of operation. The State was

open to start discussions on regulatory revisions.

o

Please note, Gaming Management has requested that not all suggested

revisions be given to the State, and instead, present the revisions to the State

in phases. However, the OGC believes that all revisions should be presented

in their entirety.

•

OGC representatives are participating in the Illegal Gambling Strategic Planning

Development Team coordinated by Intergovernmental Affairs.

•

The OGC informed the Development Division of its decision to cancel the relocation

project and to remain at its current location. OGC’s research identified that the

project proposed cost of $745,000 (not including inflation or relocation costs) would

take at least 10 years to break even. The OGC, having the Nation’s best interest in

mind, is being financially responsible in its decision to not relocate. This decision is

also supported by 1822, as there are no requests for the current building space. It

should also be known that lease payments are negotiable.
