Operative words
The Board of Trustees, the elected body of leaders for the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, has unanimously approved a resolution to once again declare a Public Health Emergency on the Umatilla Indian Reservation.... The declaration of a Public Health Emergency on the Umatilla Indian Reservation has numerous effects, including activating the CTUIR's Emergency Operations Plan and the formation of an Incident Command Team to rapidly respond to the emergency to protect the public. The Incident Command Team will be led by Yellowhawk as the Public Health Authority on the Reservation, and will also consist of the Office of the Executive Director, the Chief Executive Officers for Wildhorse Resort and Casino, Nixyaawii Community Financial Services, Cayuse Holdings, and the Chair, Treasurer, and General Council Chairman for the Board of Trustees.
