August 2014 The Mountains Are Calling!
August 2014 The Mountains Are Calling! The Tribal Environmental Department has been leading hikes for Tribal youth on Fridays this summer. There have been three all-day adventures: hiking to Brown and Green Lakes, Ruby Lake, and Long Lake. Two more hikes are planned: to the Bristlecones (August 1) and up Big Pine Canyon (August 8).

Along the way, we stop to observe flowers, trees, insects, fish, birds, water, snow, rocks, minerals, geology, squirrels, clouds, air quality, and even how it makes us feel. We check the map often, and we talk about respecting the land, the life, and even the other people and their animals who use the trails. In coordination with the Big Pine Indian Education Center, lightweight packs, water, snacks, and lunches are supplied. Students have gained a true appreciation for the outstanding landscape… and they’ve learned that it’s easier coming down the trail than it is going up! The Environmental Department would love to continue leading hikes for community members. Please stay tuned, or contact us with requests. Our Rising Star The Environmental Department says, Farewell ‘til we see you again to Jacklyn Velasquez. Jackie began her tenure as the Environmental Technician as the year 2013 began. She quickly caught on to the multiple and sometimes complex local, regional, and national issues. With her work on air and water issues, she gained respect and admiration from the tribal community, agency staff, EPA, and other people with whom she interacted. Among her many accomplishments, she completed an air pollution monitoring needs assessment for the Tribe, contributed significantly to the Owens Lake Cultural Resources Task Force, and learned about and communicated to us about meteorological data and climate change issues. Her coworkers will miss her energy, thoughtful contributions, and all around cheerfulness even at those times when the world, or at least the water, seems to be going in the wrong direction! Her dream for attending law school continued to motivate her, and after a few months with us, she applied for law school and was enthusiastically accepted by Vermont Law School, a school at the forefront of producing great environmental leaders and attorneys. We and she could not be more thrilled! Classes begin in about a month, and no doubt they will be tough. However, we know Jackie has the intelligence and vision to achieve this next milestone in what’s certain to be an interesting and rewarding life! Congratulations Jackie and best wishes from all of us. AT left: Jackie and daughter Amina prepare for the move to Vermont (where Jackie begins her study of law and Amina begins kindergarten!)

MONO LAKE: 20 YEARS AFTER “BEING SAVED” By: Sally Manning, Environmental Director Mono Lake is a spectacular place. When a rag tag group of recent college graduates visited the lake in the late 1970s, they fell in love with the place, then watched in despair as the lake was shrinking. The lake level was dropping due to the fact that the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (DWP) was diverting Mono Lake’s tributary streams, sending the water to LA instead of letting it flow into Mono Lake. With virtually no inflow but constant evaporation, the lake was dropping dramatically. In fact, in the 30 year period from about 1950 to about 1980, the lake dropped nearly 40 feet! The group decided to “do something,” so David Gaines founded the nonprofit Mono Lake Committee in 1978, with the hope of preserving the ecology and aesthetics of the lake in perpetuity. Publicity for the lake (e.g. bumper stickers), scientific investigations, and lawsuits occuSAVE MONO LAKE pied the next 16 years, culminating in a significant environmental victory. On September 28, 1994, the California State Water Resources Control Board handed down rules and goals that would guide future management in the Mono Lake basin. The Water Board set 6,392 feet as the lake level goal to achieve and maintain for Mono Lake. At the time, scientists thought it might take 30 years to reach the target. We are coming up on the 20th anniversary of the state’s decision. What’s happened to the lake level since that time? Curiously, the lake level is not much higher now than it was in 1994! At the time of the decision, the lake elevation was about 6,375 feet, so it had 17 feet to make its target. Right after the decision, the region had a run of wet years, so by the late 1990s, the lake level had risen nearly 10 feet. Things were looking good! However, the period of the rapid rise halted in 1999, and the lake level has fluctuated between 6,380 and 6,384 for the past 14 years. Now, it is predicted to fall below 6,380 (to 6,379) by next spring (2015). It needed to rise 17 feet, but it will have barely risen 5 feet in the first 20 years. DWP and lake-watchers are quick to blame “drought” as the reason for the slowdown in recovery, but diversions are also a culprit. Apparently, the state’s decision allowed DWP to divert up to 16,000 acre-feet of water from the basin in any year when the lake level exceeded 6,380 feet. Not surprisingly, DWP has taken nearly all 16,000 feet each year. However, if the lake level drops below 6,380, the amount they will be able to divert drops to 4,500 acre-feet per year. It would take more research to find who came up with the diversion schedule and why. Regardless, I foresee a future when the lake level hovers at 6,380 feet (12 feet below the target) as DWP diverts 4,500 acre-feet (lake rises) then 16,000 acre-feet (lake drops). Will the ultimate goal – the one designed to be the ecological victory – ever happen? What’s in that BOTTLED WATER? Here is an interesting item from the Mono Lake Committee’s Summer 2014 newsletter: Staff from the Mono Lake Committee toured the West Basin water recycling facility in El Segundo. West Basin receives then treats sewage water from the DWP service area, and they run the sewage through “an advanced three-step treatment process before providing it to the Water Replenishment District (WRD) for underground saltwater intrusion barriers. Bottled water companies also purchase this water, run it through an extra process of reverse osmosis… and then re-sell it to the public.” Is the bottled water sold here actually Owens Valley water that’s gone to LA only to be recycled, then returned here in a plastic bottle for a price? Youth Nature Adventures: More Photos WHY ORGANIC? By Joseph Miller and Tony Gutierrez What is organic? Crops grown using organic methods are grown without use of synthetic commercial fertilizers or pesticides on the plants. Rather grown using organic compost or natural supplement such as bone meal, blood meal or fish emulsion and maintained with natural pest management. Organic crops are also presumably grown with Non-GMO seed. What are pesticides? Pesticides are substances meant for attracting, seducing, destroying, or mitigating any pest. They are a class of biocide. The most common use of pesticides is as plant protection products (also known as crop protection products), which in general protect plants from damaging influences such as weeds, plant diseases or insects. What are genetically modified organisms? A genetically modified organism (GMO) is an organism whose genetic material has been altered using genetic engineering techniques. Organisms that have been genetically modified include microorganisms such as bacteria and yeast, insects, plants, fish, and mammals. Native genes can be mutated deleted permanently turned off or on the inserted gene can become truncated fragmented mixed with other genes inverted or multiplied. What are the health risks of consuming veggies treated with herbicides pesticides? Laboratory studies show that pesticides can cause health problems, such as birth defects, nerve damage, cancer, and other effects that might occur over a long period of time. However, these effects depend on how toxic the pesticide is and how much of it is consumed. There are more than 1055 active ingredients registered as pesticides, which are formulated into thousands of pesticide products that are available in the marketplace. Most of the foods we eat have been grown with the use of pesticides. Therefore, pesticide residues may be present inside or on the surfaces of these foods. What are the health risks of consuming GMO crops? GMO’s have been linked to thousands of toxic and allergenic reactions, thousands of sick, sterile, and dead livestock, and damage to virtually every organ and system studied in lab animals. GM plants, such as soybean, corn, cottonseed, and canola have had foreign genes forced into their DNA. And the inserted genes come from species, such as bacteria and viruses that have never been in the human food supply. Did you know... since 1996 Americans have been eating genetically modified (GM) ingredients in most processed foods? Every year non organic and GMO crops are subsidized with tax dollars to bring them to the market at a more affordable cost. So next time you’re in the produce aisle or are planning to start a home garden, ponder the choices you’re going to make from a health standpoint as opposed to affordability.

By: Annastasha Miller Sage Andrew Romero | 545 Butcher Lane, Big Pine, CA| phone 760-938-3355 News from the Tribal Historic Preservation Office by Bill Helmer, Tribal Historic Preservation Officer Cultural Resources Task Force for the Owens Lake Dust Mitigation Program Representatives on the Cultural Resources Task Force for the Owens Lake Dust Mitigation Program from the Big Pine Paiute Tribe, Lone Pine Paiute-Shoshone Reservation, and the Fort Independence Indian Reservation wrote a draft Tribes’ Recommendation On Best Way To Balance Cultural Resource Protection And Dust Control For Four Phase 7.B. Sites at Owens Lake. This recommendation is being sent to the Big Pine Tribal Council and the other involved Tribal Councils for their review and approval, and then a final version will be sent to the other members of the Cultural Resources Task Force (CRTF), Los Angeles Department of Water and Power, Great Basin Unified Air Pollution Control District, State Lands Commission, State Historic Preservation Office, and the Native American Heritage Commission. CRTF representatives from Big Pine are Danelle Gutierrez, Theresa Stone, and Bill Helmer. A portion of this draft recommendation is the following: The cultural sites under discussion hold critically important traces of our original way of life. What needs protecting is the life and the story embodied in the entire lake bed, not just these four sites -- special as they are. For that reason, we ask for the immediate initiation of a traditional cultural landscape assessment and protection of Pasiata on the National Register of Historic Places. The need for this action is urgent because each day, the landscape centered on Pasiata becomes more fragmented and industrialized, and thus cultural resources are destroyed. The tribal voice in the management of Pasiata must be amplified, acknowledged and adhered to. On far too many occasions, our cultural resource monitors have pointed out a cultural resource in need of protection – repeatedly, and to multiple workers on the lake bed -- and still had to witness the item demolished. Our tribal monitors and representatives must have access to a decision-maker able and willing to divert all area heavy equipment and protect cultural resources immediately upon notification. Existing cultural resource protection protocols must be followed. We feel that the importance and uniqueness of the cultural landscape has been long over-looked, and should be elevated in priority compared to past practices. This landscape is an irreplaceable part of tribal culture and traditions, and as such, an irreplaceable part of American history. It must be protected. CALTRANS—Olancha-Cartago Four Lane Expansion Project Programmatic Agreement Tribal input from the Big Pine Paiute Tribe, Lone Pine Paiute-Shoshone Reservation, the Fort Independence Indian Reservation, Bishop Paiute Tribe, and Timbisha Shoshone Tribe ensured that the Historic Resources Treatment Plan for the Olancha-Cartago Four Lane Expansion Project included language which required ethnographic landscape studies in addition to archaeological studies: b) Development of an Identification Plan that finalizes identification and documentation of historic properties within the Undertaking's APE, including properties that may be eligible to the NRHP under Criteria A, B, C, and D. These properties could include archaeological sites, traditional cultural properties 'or traditional cultural landscapes that meet one or more of the criteria for eligibility, or components of a larger Native American traditional cultural landscape. e) Design of an ethnographic study in cooperation with Tribes to identify, evaluate and assess effects to places and resources, including but not limited to traditional plant or material gathering areas. Town of Mammoth Lakes Plans To Pave Bike Route Near Snowcreek VIII The Town of Mammoth Lakes in cooperation with CALTRANS is consulting with the Big Pine Tribe and other regional tribes regarding its intent to pave a dirt bike and hiking path near the Snowcreek VIII condominiums. This is a culturally significant area which needs the highest level of protection. University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, Plans to Take Rock Samples in the Owens Valley and Sierra Nevada On July 9, 2014, Bill Helmer and Ross Stone accompanied Jacqueline Beidl, Inyo National Forest archaeologist, to various sites between Independence and Aberdeen which were proposed for rock sample sites by geologists from the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee. We were assessing each site for the presence of cultural resources; no cultural resources were found at any of the sites, and all locations would not be in view of trails or roads. Ross Stone and Jacqueline Beidl on the North Fork of Oak Creek, near one of the proposed rock sample sites. Sawmill Canyon. The black rock in the distance was the area where the rock sample is planned to be taken. There is no trail in this area. 1872 Map of Owens Lake from a map of the Wheeler Expedition of 1871. Another month gone and the weather has been very dry. Please use your water wisely and do not waste, remember we are still in a drought. We have a serious problem in our community. Underage drinking is a serious problem, not only is it illegal but it poses a health and safety risk.
