July 10th Western Regional Partnership (WRP) Energy Committee webinar on Tribal Energy. This webinar will run from 10:00 to 11:30 am Pacific. Please contact amyduffy @ westernregionalpartnership.org to RSVP or any questions on this webinar. Further details below.

Tribal lands possess renewable energy resources (including wind, solar, geothermal and biomass) that could generate power, provide revenue, and create jobs in Indian Country while supporting the goals of clean energy and energy independence. Developing renewable energy projects (from initial assessment to project operations) can be time-consuming, complicated and frustrating. This webinar will highlight some of the federal programs that support energy development on Tribal lands, as well as providing their insight on emergency trends, recommendations and opportunities to enhance and strengthen Indian tribal energy development.

Webinar Keynote speakers:

1. Kevin R. Frost, Director, Office Of Indian Energy Policy And Programs, U.S. Department Of Energy
2. Stephen Manydeeds, Chief, Division of Energy and Mineral Development, US-DOI, Assistant Secretary-Indian Affairs
3. Tedd Buelow, National Native American Coordinator, Rural Development Innovation Center, United States Department of Agriculture
