Office of the Environment

The Office of the Environment (OE) was created in 1992 to increase the environmental regulatory presence on the Lower Sioux Reservation and to develop environmental programs for the community. Since that time, the OE has developed a wide variety of environmental programs and has worked effectively over the years to improve the health and safety of tribal members.

Mission Statement of the Office of the Environment

“To ensure the health, welfare, and safety of tribal members while protecting and conserving the earth’s natural resources for today’s and future generations.”
