Practical guidelines for implementing President Clinton's mandate to safeguard Native American religions and cultures. This report reviews the implications for the Department of Defense of recent statutes and regulations affecting Native Americans, growing political awareness and activism, and the U.S. Army's historical role in Indian Affairs. The report is part of a larger study being conducted for the Principal Assistant Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (Environmental Security) on conservation policy as it relates to the Department of Defense's natural and cultural resource program. It should be of interest to those charged with responsibility for the natural and cultural resource program as well as to those concerned with Native American affairs and federal land management. This project was conducted within the Acquisition and Technology Policy Center of RAND's National Defense Research Institute, a federally funded research and development center sponsored by the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the defense agencies, and the Joint Staff. Donald Mitchell is an attorney in Anchorage, Alaska, and a consultant to RAND. He is the former chief counsel for the Alaska Federation of Natives and is currently writing a book on the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act.
