I'd like to hear more. Were federally-recognized tribes consulted for the project? @sbrinton @GivePoetry1

I'm not disagreeing with their preeminence. I'm simply saying the government has been known to disregard it.

Yeah, that's what I brought up. More to point, I guess, does this process give tribal nations final say?
@sbrinton@GivePoetry1 -
I believe it would for future sites if it's applied

That's cool. Still interested in how tribal nations consultation on this and nuclear waste council diversity, too.
@sbrinton@GivePoetry1 -
Actually, now that I think about it: while I really appreciate you engaging, "I believe so" is an inadequate answer.
@sbrinton@GivePoetry1 -
If people who are working on nuclear waste don't base their work on ability for tribal refusal, it's not good enough.
@sbrinton@GivePoetry1 -
As a principal of environmental justice alone, recognizing/advocating for tribal decision-making is super important.
@sbrinton@GivePoetry1 -
If your work centers on consent, I think the answer should be "of course tribal nations have final say." Full stop.
