Siletz Tribal Rights: Hunting, Fishing, and Gathering

This act confirms and regulates the Siletz Tribe's rights to hunt, fish, trap, and gather on their lands. It ensures that existing agreements on these matters remain in effect unless modified by new agreements between the Tribe and the State of Oregon. Citizens should be aware that these changes primarily concern indigenous rights and do not directly affect general hunting or fishing regulations for other residents.
