Tribe Relates Resource Potential to RiA Officials The Tribes greatest potential is its natural resources. This was the conclusion derived from the Phoenix Area Tribal Busi- ness Management Conference conducted last week at Bottle Hollow Resort. For a look at the natural resources the group of visiting Phoenix Area officials, representatives from Indian Technical Assistance Center, Denver, Colo., and two Washington D. C. dignitaries were accompanied by Tribal and BIA personnel on a trip to the Hill Creek and Rock Creek Areas. The Conference opened Sunday evening, 27 with a buffet dinner hosted by the Tribe. Monday morning the managers of Tribal enterprises reported to the Phoenix area officials and the Area personnel, in turn, related how they would be able to assist in Tribal programs. John Artlchocker Jr., Area Director of the Phoenix Area, BIA, chaired the meeting. Welcoming remarks wre given by Francis Wyasket and reports were given Ute Trails and by Frank Arrowchls, Jim Bottle Hollow Resort; Rivers; Peltier, Art Brown, Cattle Enterprise; Dick Jones, Ute Fab Ltd.; Dale Slade, Ute Research Laboratory. Mike Quinn spoke on proposed Aug. projects and programs. Natural Resources, primarily water rights, was the topic covered by Rex Curry, Tribal Resources Officer. Enroute to Chandler Canyon Tuesday morning the group viewed the proposed Green Canyon dam site which would provide Irrigation water for approximately 1200 acres of tribal lands in the Hill Creek Area. The dam also would create more fishing facilities and be used in flood control. At Chandler Canyon the visiting officials boarded two rafts manned by Ute Trails and Rivers personnel, and floated the Green River to Florence Creek Lodge where they were the first guests to use the Lodge which is not yet officially open. Wednesday evening the group returned to Bottle Hollow Resort and began another tour Thursday morning to the Rock Creek area to view the site of the proposed Rock Creek Lodge.
