How does the EN support Tribal environmental management?
The EN can help Tribal partners to:
- Increase capacity to collect, analyze, manage, and share data.
- Increase access to environmental and health related information to assist the Tribe with planning, decision-making, and addressing environmental issues more broadly.
- Improve ability to characterize environmental conditions on Tribal land and identify resources needed to address issues.
- Facilitate information sharing within a Tribe's agencies, with other Tribes, states and the federal government.
- Expedite sharing of environmental data with emergency managers and community members
- Identify and take advantage of tools and resources already created by other EN partners to meet their Information Technology/Information Management needs.
- Support compliance with federal regulations.
