With design plans undelivered, tribal consultation stalled, and a federal injunction in place, the proposed facility faces a potentially years-long regulatory process.
In the historical review process in January, ICE gave several Tribal Nations the opportunity to weigh in on the project prior to issuing their findings of historical appropriateness — a consultation process required under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, which obligates federal agencies to engage tribes with religious or cultural ties to affected properties before proceeding with a federal undertaking. Now that the project has stalled and faced stricter scrutiny, they've brought those Nations back on as consulting parties. It's not clear from the email which Nation raised the question, but we've reached out to a few sources with knowledge of the matter to help shed some light on that development.
I'll be curious to hear more about this. I know tribal nations have jurisdiction over their ancestral lands, burial grounds, and sacred artifacts. It looks like the Delaware and Seneca Nations were consulted initially and didn't object, at least based on ICE's initial proposal. Wondering how things may have changed since Judge Hurson ruled for the State in the preliminary injunction?
Tribal? Their trying to steal more land from the Indians?
Thankfully, no. Not this time.

Hopefully they’ll be gone before it resolves.
If I sign a falsified federal application I'm liable. What about whoever signed the original false applications?
Deep Review this, manboy thugs.
