2011 - Indian Reorganization Act - Hearing Before The Committee On Indian Affairs
2011 - Indian Reorganization Act - Hearing Before The Committee On Indian Affairs
Miscellaneous Federal Documents & Reports
Hearing on the Indian Reorganization Act—75 Years Later: Renewing Our Commitment to Restore Tribal Homelands and Promote Self-Determination. Members looked at the history of U.S. Indian Policy examining the original intent and legislative history of the Indian Reorganization Act [IRA] and subsequent amendment to the Act. Since 1934, the IRA has stood as the bedrock of Federal Indian policy. A 2009 Supreme Court decision narrowly construed the text of the IRA up-ending the status quo, which had existed for 75 years, contrary to Congressional intent, legislative history and previous affirmative actions by the Administration. Statements, letters, and materials submitted for …
1849 - Speech Of Mr. William B. Preston, Of Virginia, In The House Of Representatives On The Formation Of A New State Of The Territories Of California And New Mexico
Miscellaneous Federal Documents & Reports
The speech of William B. Preston of Virginia, given in the U.S. House of Representatives in which he introduced a bill that gave the consent of Congress to the people of California and New Mexico to create a government for themselves. The bill that Preston advocated invited the people of California the opportunity for the creation of a government founded upon their own will. It renounced the exercise of your territorial authority and jurisdiction and recognized the "great principle of popular supremacy and popular government." He was especially concerned that the bill not be perceived as a compromise between the …

2007 - El Toro Groundwater Study Monterey County, California
Monterey County Water Resources Agency Engineering Reports
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate groundwater resource capacity of the El Toro Planning Area and recommend maintaining or revising the B-8 zoning overlay. Additional objectives and tasks completed for this study were consistent with recommendations of the1996 Fugro report and included compiling water well and hydrostratigraphic information for the El Toro Planning Area; conducting aquifer testing; collecting and analyzing water samples from wells; developing a conceptual hydrogeologic model of the El Toro Planning Area; and evaluating hydrogeologic connectivity between existing subareas.
2001 - Hydrogeologic Investigation Of Salinas Valley Basin In The Vicinity Of Fort Ord And Marina Salinas Valley, California - Final Report
Monterey County Water Resources Agency Engineering Reports
This report evaluated the then current state or potential for seawater intrusion in the city of Marina and the former Fort Order area. Groundwater from this area primarily supplied drinking water wells as opposed to agricultural wells. Aquifers evaluated in this study area include the perched zone or A-aquifer, the Pressure 180-Foot Aquifer (180-Foot Aquifer), the Pressure 400-Foot Aquifer ( 400-Foot Aquifer), the Deep Aquifer, and aquifers within the Purisima and Santa Margarita Formations. The I80-Foot and 400-Foot Aquifers are the focus of this study because both aquifers outcrop along the canyon walls of Monterey Bay where they interface with …
2015 - Preliminary Engineering Design Report For Control Of Non-Winter Drainage At Carr Lake
2015 - Preliminary Engineering Design Report For Control Of Non-Winter Drainage At Carr Lake
Monterey County Water Resources Agency Engineering Reports
Landowners at Carr Lake reported increasing issues with proper drainage of the agricultural fields that made up the vast majority of the former lake bed. The primary driver of the study was the recognition that a more complete understanding of the site topography and hydrology is necessary, both to frame the pertinent issues and to identify any measures that may be appropriate to enhance drainage in the ditch system. Therefore the project work plan included two main fieldwork components, topographic survey and hydrologic monitoring. The fieldwork was followed up by data post processing, mapping, and associated supporting analyses.
Work was …
2002 - North Monterey County Comprehensive Water Resources Management Plan
2002 - North Monterey County Comprehensive Water Resources Management Plan
Monterey County Water Resources Agency Water Reports
North Monterey County experiences severe water supply and quality problems including falling water levels, seawater intrusion, and nitrate contamination. The region is in a significant state of overdraft where current demands greatly exceed the annual level of recharge. Without increased supplies, dramatic changes need to occur to the North County land use pattern to reduce demand. The Comprehensive Water Resources Management Plan combines water conservation, water supply, water quality, and land use actions into comprehensive policy alternatives. It is clear, however, that capital facilities are necessary if the problem is to be solved.
The study area overlies a portion of …
Technologies Of Suspicion And The Ethics Of Obligation In Political Asylum, Bridget M. Haas, Amy Shuman
Technologies Of Suspicion And The Ethics Of Obligation In Political Asylum, Bridget M. Haas, Amy Shuman
Ohio University Press Open Access Books
Across the globe, migration has been met with intensifying modes of criminalization and securitization, and claims for political asylum are increasingly met with suspicion. Asylum seekers have become the focus of global debates surrounding humanitarian obligations, on the one hand, and concerns surrounding national security and border control, on the other. In Technologies of Suspicion and the Ethics of Obligation in Political Asylum, contributors provide fine-tuned analyses of political asylum systems and the adjudication of asylum claims across a range of sociocultural and geopolitical contexts.
The contributors to this timely volume, drawing on a variety of theoretical perspectives, offer critical …

[Introduction To] Documents Of Native American Political Development: 1933 To Present, David E. Wilkins (Editor)
[Introduction To] Documents Of Native American Political Development: 1933 To Present, David E. Wilkins (Editor)
Bookshelf
Before Europeans arrived in what is now known as the United States, over 600 diverse Native nations lived on the same land. This encroachment and subsequent settlement by Americans forcibly disrupted the lives of all indigenous peoples and brought about staggering depopulation, loss of land, and cultural, religious, and economic changes. These developments also wrought profound changes in indigenous politics and longstanding governing institutions. David E. Wilkins' two-volume work Documents of Native American Political Development traces how indigenous peoples have maintained and continued to exercise a significant measure of self-determination contrary to presumptions that such powers had been lost, surrendered, …

Volume 8: Gender, Governance And Islam, Deniz Kandiyoti, Nadje Al-Ali, Kathryn Spellman Poots
Exploring Muslim Contexts
Analyses the links between gender and governance in contemporary Muslim majority countries and diaspora contexts.
Following a period of rapid political change, both globally and in relation to the Middle East and South Asia, this collection sets new terms of reference for an analysis of the intersections between global, state, non-state and popular actors and their contradictory effects on the politics of gender.
The volume charts the shifts in academic discourse and global development practice that shape our understanding of gender both as an object of policy and as a terrain for activism. Nine individual case studies systematically explore how …
