YEARS 2-5 



Depending on the results achieved in Year 1 , the 

 Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe will submit detailed budget 

 requests for future years of the project (see Appendix 3). 

 The infrastructure developments are phased over a five-year 

 period and the Tribe will also require continued support 

 throughout the project to maintain technical and 

 professional staff to conduct management activities. 

 However, during the first year, the Tribe will actively 

 investigate and pursue other sources of funding to help 

 support and continue the project which could reduce the need 

 for annual appropriations. The need for specific 

 appropriations could be greatly reduced if Congress were to 

 authorize Tribes to receive funds under the Endangered 

 Species Act and other programs which could provide funding 

 for project activities.
