Key Points
This bill requires the Department of the Interior to give the Nisqually Indian Tribe full ownership of the Clear Creek Hatchery. The tribe would receive all the buildings, equipment, and land rights associated with the facility.
The transfer includes specific infrastructure like fish ladders, water towers, wells, and several ponds used for raising fish. The government must complete the hand-over within 90 days after the bill is signed into law.
The tribe will not have to pay the federal government for this property. This move helps the Nisqually people manage their own natural resources and support local fish populations that are vital to their culture and food supply.
