Authorizing the Purchase of Extrication Equipment for the Village of Hobart using SelfGovernance Funds for the purpose of Fire Protection Services
Summary
This resolution authorizes Self-Governance funds designated for Community Fire Protection
services in the amount of twenty-eight thousand three hundred and ninety-five dollars ($28,395),
from Fiscal Years 2008-2010, be used to purchase extrication equipment from Fire-Rescue Supplie
LLC for the Village of Hobart Fire Department to use in the provision of fire protection services
to the entire community, including members of the Oneida Nation.
Submitted by: Kristen M. Hooker, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office
Date: May 1, 2019
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office
Pursuant to a compact and funding agreement with the Department of Interior’s Bureau of Indian
Affairs (“BIA”), the Oneida Nation receives recurring Self-Governance funds to implement and
carry out a Community Fire Protection program within its territory. The funds are used for
purposes of, including, but not limited to, supporting Tribal staff, training volunteer firefighters,
repairing existing firefighting equipment, and purchasing additional equipment.
Both the Oneida Nation and the Village of Hobart (“Village”) exercise jurisdiction and provide
governmental services within their respective territories. The Nation does not currently have its
own fire department, and thus, relies on surrounding municipalities, including the Village, to
provide fire protection services to its members. The Nation and the Village’s Fire Department
(“Department”) have a good working relationship.
The Department has expressed a need for a battery powered set of extrication tools to assist in its
provision of fire protection services to the entire community, including members of the Oneida
Nation. The Nation understands the importance of having proper fire protection equipment to
ensure its members, land and resources are protected, and thus, recognizes that the Nation will
benefit from the purchase of the extrication equipment.
This resolution would authorize that Self-Governance funds designated for Community Fire
Protection services in the amount of twenty-eight thousand three hundred and ninety-five dollars
($28,395), from Fiscal Years 2008-2010, be used to purchase a battery powered set of extrication
tools from Fire-Rescue Supplie, LLC.
Conclusion
Adoption of this resolution would not conflict with any of the Nation’s laws.

Statement of Effect
Authorizing the Transfer of General Self-Governance Funds to the Town of Oneida for the
Purchase of a Back-up Generator System
Summary
This resolution authorizes general Self-Governance carryover funds in the amount of thirty-one
thousand two hundred dollars ($31,200) be made available to the Town of Oneida to purchase a
generator back-up system for the Town of Oneida Fire Department’s County H Fire Station.
Submitted by: Kristen M. Hooker, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office
Date: May 1, 2019
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office
Pursuant to a compact and funding agreement (“Agreement”) with the Department of Interior’s
Bureau of Indian Affairs (“BIA”), the Oneida Nation receives Self-Governance funding to
implement certain governmental programs and services. One of the programs that the Nation has
assumed the responsibility for implementing under Section 2 of the Agreement is the Community
Fire Protection Program.
According to Section 2 of the Agreement, the Nation has broad authority to reallocate funding
between programs. If that reallocation of funding is from one program, activity, function or service
to another within a General Budget Category, or from one General Budget Category to another,
Section 5 of the Agreement states that Secretarial consent is not required.
Both the Nation and the Town of Oneida (“Town”) exercise jurisdiction and provide governmental
services within their respective territories. And, as neighbors, both governments recognize the
importance of working collaboratively to mitigate the costs associated with providing those
services.
The Nation does not currently have its own fire department, and thus, relies on surrounding
municipalities, including the Town, to provide fire protection services to its members. The Town’s
Fire Department (“Department”) does not have a back-up generator that enables it to be fully
functional in the event of a power outage. With a back-up generator, the Department would be able
to open its overhead doors so that fire trucks could leave the garage to respond to emergencies that
occur during a power outage. It would also allow the Department to act as a command center for
emergency personnel to gather in the event of a natural or man-made disaster.
The Town is requesting a monetary donation to purchase a generator back-up system for the
Department’s County H Fire Station. The Oneida Nation understands the importance of having
proper fire protection equipment. It further understands that its members will be better protected
with the purchase of a back-up generator that allows the Department to use the fire protection

equipment during a power outage and act as a fully functional command center in the event of a
natural or man-made disaster.
This resolution would make general Self-Governance carryover funds in the amount of thirty-one
thousand two hundred dollars ($31,200) available to the Town of Oneida to purchase the generator
back-up system referenced herein for the Town of Oneida Fire Department to use at its County H
Fire Station.
Conclusion
Adoption of this resolution would not conflict with any of the Nation’s laws.

recognized by the laws of the United States of America; and
WHEREAS,
the Oneida General Tribal Council is the governing body of the Oneida Nation; and
WHEREAS,
the Oneida Business Committee has been delegated the authority of Article IV, Section 1,
of the Oneida Tribal Constitution by the Oneida General Tribal Council; and
WHEREAS,
the Oneida Nation has a cultural, spiritual, and traditional connection with the buffalo; and
WHEREAS,
the presence of the buffalo promotes tribal sovereignty and self-determination because
they provide jobs and food, and are a source of income through tourism, meat sales, and

WHEREAS,
the InterTribal Buffalo Council (ITBC) is a federally-chartered, Indian organization with 68
member-Tribes in 19 states, with a total of 55 buffalo herds (over 20,000 buffalo

WHEREAS,
ITBC’s mission is to promote the social welfare of American Indians and Native Alaskans
by restoring buffalo to Indian lands to restore the cultural, spiritual, and traditional
connection between buffalo and indigenous people; and
WHEREAS,
ITBC has received federal funding from the Department of Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs
since 1992 in varying amounts to award herd development grants to member Tribes and
to provide technical assistance for buffalo management; and
WHEREAS,
the Bureau of Indian Affairs has determined the level of funding for ITBC through a
discretionary Natural Resources line item which has resulted in stagnant funding for the
past 10 years despite the growth of ITBC membership and increase in the number of Tribal
herds; and
WHEREAS,
the Oneida Nation is a member of ITBC; and
WHEREAS,
ITBC has developed and long promoted the Indian Buffalo Management Act that would
create a permanent program with a specific line-item in the Department of the Interior’s
budget for tribal buffalo restoration and promotion programs; and
WHEREAS,
ITBC has requested members of the United States House of Representatives and Senate
sponsor or co-sponsor the Indian Buffalo Management Act either as stand-alone legislation
or as a rider to moving Appropriations bills or other legislative efforts; and

Summary
The resolution corrects resolution BC-05-22-19-A which approved the use of the Economic
Development, Diversification and Community Development Fund for the Industrial Hemp Pilot
Project due to an error in the approved allocation amount. This resolution then approves the
allocation of $90,000 from the Economic Development, Diversification and Community
Development Fund for the purpose of supporting Project ED18-007.
Submitted by: Clorissa N. Santiago, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office
Date: June 7, 2019
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office
The Economic Development, Diversification and Community Development Fund (“the Fund”)
was created and reaffirmed by resolutions BC-09-28-16-B, BC-07-12-17-A, BC-12-12-18-B, and
BC-01-23-19-C.
The Industrial Hemp Project Team has requested an additional allocation of $90,000 from the Fund
to support the 2019 Industrial Hemp Pilot Project, for the necessary supplies and equipment to
carry out the work planed for the 2019 growing season.
Resolution BC-01-23-19-C requires the Community and Economic Development Division
Director to review every request for use of the Fund, determine if the proposed use is consistent
with the Fund, and provide a written recommendation to the Oneida Business Committee regarding
whether to authorize funds to be allocated from the Fund to a specific project.
This resolution states that this requirement was met by the action of the Community and Economic
Development Division Director submitting an agenda request approving the request as consistent
with the purposes of the fund.
Resolution BC-01-23-19-C also requires that the Oneida Business Committee be responsible for
authorizing use of the Fund by a resolution clearly identifying the amount of funds authorized and
purpose of the funds, which may be identified by a contract number, CIP number, economic
development opportunity number or other easily trackable number or designation, and the
employee responsible for authorizing expenditures of the authorized amount.
This resolution states that the Oneida Business Committee does approve the allocation of $90,000
from the Fund for the purposes of supporting Project ED18-007, to fulfill the requirements of the
Industrial Hemp Pilot Project and has designated Pat Pelky as being the party responsible for
overseeing the expenditure of these funds.

Box Lacrosse Quick Facts
Box Lacrosse vs. Field Lacrosse
•
•
•
•
•
•
Two teams of 5 people and a goalie on each team play on the field at one time.
There are more padding, different helmets and different stringing of the sticks because the
box game is more aggressive.
The field is much smaller- usually made from converted ice rinks vs. field lacrosse where
the field is bigger than a football field.
The box lacrosse athlete learns to play a quick game because of the small field. The field
lacrosse player plays a slower game because of all the players and more space.
A box player makes a quicker more skilled field player; however, it is more difficult to make
a box player out of a field lacrosse athlete. The box player is more agile, tougher, and has
a different view of the field because the game is quicker and more aggressive in
comparison to field lacrosse.
Successful collegiate and professional players, such as the Thompson Brothers, attribute
growing up playing box lacrosse to better preparing them for lacrosse on all levels.
Box Lacrosse in Oneida

We have at minimum 20 men that are playing box lacrosse off the reservation because we
do not have a field available for them.
The men’s league currently plays at the NHC gym and during the winter months, when it is
available.
We now have Oneida youth learning to play box thanks to a few coaches who started a box
program to prepare for the 2020 Indigenous Games and beyond.
Several box teams are being formed in the State including Team Wisconsin, which just
formed last year for the first time ever.
The Oneida team will be able to play tournaments locally, regionally, and nationally but do
not have a lacrosse box to practice on.
Oneida boys competed in the previous indigenous game lacrosse which was box style and
because they had no experience they did not do very well.
Having this box and the right training program to go with it will better prepare our kids for
the 2020 games.

Cathy Bachhuber, Assistant to Councilman Ernie Stevens
Date: June 5, 2019
Re:
Recommendation for for use of the Economic Diversification and Community
Development Set‐aside Fund – ED#19‐011 Box Lacrosse Project
Background
A memo addressed to the OBC, CDPC and I, was received on June 4, 2019. This memo from
Councilman Ernie Stevens was submitting a request to use the Economic Diversification and
Community Development set‐aside partially fund to a box lacrosse field. According to the
memo, $5000 will be used from the BC Special Project line for a box lacrosse field.
This request is for $2500 and included the following description of the fund use: “Request for
additional funding from the Economic Development Diversification and Community
Development Fund to cover the remaining cost of materials.”
Findings after Review
In accordance with the latest OBC Resolution #12‐12‐18‐B in my opinion, this appears to be an
appropriate use of the Economic, Diversification and Community Development fund from a
community development perspective.
In Closing
This funding allocation will support the Oneida Nation’s community development efforts in the
Oneida Reservation that are guided by the Oneida Nation Comprehensive Plan. The two most
applicable plan elements include: Parks & Recreation, and Social Wellness.

Authorizing Use of Employee Time to Build the Inaugural Community Box Lacrosse Field at
Cora House Park
Summary
This resolution seeks authority to allow employees of the Nation with general construction skills
to participate in the building of an Inaugural Community Box Lacrosse Field at Cora House Park
as part of their normal working hours for up to eight (8) hours per day on Friday, June 14th and
Monday, June 17th, 2019. This resolution further seeks authority for the Governmental Services
Division Parks and Recreation Department to develop a standard operating procedure that creates
opportunities for local businesses to place advertisements on and around the Community Box
Lacrosse Field in exchange for sponsorship fees that will be used to offset its construction and
ongoing maintenance costs.
Submitted by: Kristen M. Hooker, Staff Attorney, Legislative Reference Office
Date: June 3, 2019
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Office
The Oneida Business Committee has adopted six broad goals to guide the Nation and its
organization during the 2017-2020 term. This includes the goal of Inspiring Yukwatsistay^ (Our
fire, our spirit within each one of us) and Encouraging Tsi> NiyukwalihoT^ (We have everything
here to sustain us).
The Community Development and Planning Committee (“CDPC”) recognizes the positive
community impact that occurs when members of the Nation practice their traditional medicine
game of lacrosse. Not only does the practice aid in the development of skills such as team building,
decision-making and strategic planning, it provides opportunities for the Nation’s adults and youth
to bond through their teaching, playing and/or watching of the game.
The Nation’s Governmental Services Division Parks and Recreation Department (“Department”),
working in conjunction with the Nation’s Planning Department and Public Works Division,
developed a template for constructing an Inaugural Community Box Lacrosse Field at Cora House
Park (“Box”), a semi-permanent outdoor box lacrosse field built of quality materials through
community assistance. The CDPC is requesting that the OBC support the project by authorizing
the Nation’s supervisors to allow their employees with general construction skills to participate in
the community build as part of their normal working hours for up to eight (8) hours per day on
Friday, June 14th and Monday, June 17th, 2019. The CDPC will use this build as the foundation
for formalizing a construction process and necessary skill-set in a step-by-step template to be used
in future builds of community box lacrosse fields throughout the Reservation.
Once built, the Box would be open to the public to use/reserve for practices and games, which
would also benefit the community lacrosse teams that have started developing box lacrosse skills
at existing facilities. Thus, the CDPC is further requesting that the OBC authorize the Department
to create a standard operating procedure that would offset a portion of the cost to construct and
Page 1 of 3
Public Packet
72 of 181
maintain the Box by affording local businesses an opportunity to place their ads on and around the
Box in exchange for a sponsorship fee.
The Oneida Worker’s Compensation Law (“Law”) provides a system for compensating employees
of the Nation who suffer a covered injury or accident while at work. [2 O.C. 203.1-1]. The Law
defines a covered injury or accident as “[m]ental or physical harm to an employee caused by
accident or disease and arising out of and in the course of employment.” [2 O.C. 203.1-1(d)]. An
injury “caused by voluntary participation in an employer-sponsored recreation or fitness activity”,
however, does not qualify as a covered injury or accident under the Law. [2 O.C. 203.3-1(l)].
According to this resolution, employees of the Nation with general construction skills will be
allowed to spend up to sixteen (16) hours of paid scheduled work time to help build the Box, rather
than perform their typical work-related duties. During this time, these individuals would be acting
within the course of their employment, and thus, any injuries arising out of their participation in
the community build would be covered under the Law unless the project qualifies as an “employersponsored recreation or fitness activity.”
Although the Law does not define “employer-sponsored recreation or fitness activity”, it does state
that all undefined words shall be “used in their ordinary and everyday sense.” [2 O.C. 203.3-1].
Ultimately, it is the Administrator, designated by the OBC to process worker’s compensation
claims, who would have to decide whether employees getting paid to spend their normal working
hours building the Box are acting within the course of their employment or participating in an
employer-sponsored recreation or fitness activity. [2 O.C. 203.10-1(a)]. The decision, however,
would be subject to an appeal to the Judiciary. [2 O.C. 203.11-1].
Pursuant to the Oneida Safety Law (“Safety Law”), the Nation is required to provide its employees
with a work environment that is free from recognized hazards. [3 O.C. 303.4-1]. Hazards are
established through “industry recognition, employer recognition and/or common sense” and the
Safety Law sets forth standards that the Nation must follow to protect its employees when these
hazards exist. [3 O.C. 303.4-1].
The Safety Law also requires that certain protective equipment be provided by the Nation and used
by its employees when there exists “hazards of processes or environment, chemical hazards, or
mechanical irritants encountered in a manner capable of causing injury or impairment in the
function of any part of the body through absorption, inhalation, or physical contact.” [3 O.C.
303.10-2]. This includes, but is not limited to, the requirement that, at a minimum:
• Hard hats are worn by all personnel and visitors in exposed areas of new construction,
renovation and/or trenching.
• Proper eye protection is worn when sledging; hammering; sawing on metal, wood or
concrete; chipping; welding; grinding; drilling; working in dusty places; handling
hazardous materials; cleaning walls; or during other operations where eye injuries may
result.
• Approved hearing protection is worn where high noise levels exist.
• Foot protection, steel toe and shoes that are workwise and in serviceable condition for the
operation to which the employee is assigned is worn.
• Gloves with leather palms are worn when handling rough edge or abrasive material that
could subject hands to lacerations, puncturing or burns.

[3 O.C. 303.10-3].
Last, the Safety Law provides that the Nation shall permit only those employees qualified by
training or shown by experience to operate equipment and machinery. [3 O.C. 303.19-4]. And,
when applicable, it requires that the Nation establish and offer requisite training for its employees,
[3 O.C. 303.4-5], specifically stating that the Nation’s supervisors are responsible to provide
general construction safety training on hand tools, as well as ensure that employees who operate
powder actuated tools possess a valid certification card of proper training. [3 O.C. 303.14-2].
This resolution permits employees of the Nation “with general construction skills” to participate
in a community build as part of their normal working hours. Although the extent of the construction
activities that they are expected to provide on behalf of the Nation is not clear, where applicable,
the Safety Law will govern the Nation’s obligations to those employees participating in the project.
Conclusion
Adoption of this resolution would not conflict with any of the Nation’s laws so long as the carried
out in accordance with the Nation’s Worker’s Compensation and Safety Laws, where applicable.

RE: BC Agenda Request - June 12, 2019 OBC Meeting
2019-0592 final approval-160708.PDF
Attached is the completed Legal Review with additional supporting documents. Below are responses to
the four (4) questions from the Legal Review:
1. Was there an attempt to negotiate with the vendor regarding the waiver of sovereign immunity? No
attempt was made to negotiate the waiver of sovereign immunity.
2. Were three bids obtained? If not, why not? Did not go thru the three bid process. Shift 4 is already
an established EMV Partner with Oneida Bingo. Accounting and Oneida MIS are very satisfied with Shift
4 Payments performance and never have had any issues. Imperative that Shift 4 Payments contract and
Merchant Application is approved as this is part of the Oracle Micros Upgrade Project that is currently
underway at Oneida Casino and Radisson Hotel with expected completion by August 31, 2019.
3. Was any other vendor willing to remove sovereign immunity issues? No other vendors were pursued
as an EMV Partner.
4. What is the cost of going to another vendor? No other vendors were pursued so no costs were
obtained.
Please let me know if this is everything you are requesting, and if anything else is needed.
Thank you.
