![["The Bureau of Indian Affairs received a letter from Senator Bartlett regarding the requirement for Indians to possess certificates of Indian blood to receive services at Indian Health Service facilities. The Bureau does not administer health services for Indians, but issues certificates of Indian blood when proper proof is presented. Responsibility for medical care of Indians was transferred to the U.S. Public Health Service in 1955. The letter was referred to the Director of the Indian Health Service for appropriate action."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_32_10_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Health,%201973%20Feb.%20-%201978%20Sep.,%201973-1978%20(2)/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_32_11_0003_thumbnail.jpg "1977 Correspondence Regarding the Requirement of Certificates of Degree of Indian Blood for Health Services")

![["The Creek Nation is proposing a cooperative community hospital project in partnership with Okfuskee County, Oklahoma. They are seeking funding and support from Senator Dewey Bartlett for the project. Additionally, the Creek Nation has received a $1 million appropriation to operate the Okemah hospital and plans to hire staff personnel. There is also a discussion about giving Indian tribes increased legal powers and jurisdiction over non-Indian people and property within reservation boundaries. Representative Lloyd Meeds disagrees with the idea of inherent tribal sovereignty and believes that many of the recommendations in the report may not be enacted into law due to political realities."]](/thumb/CAC_CC_003_2_32_11_0024.jpg "Creek Nation's Innovative Community Hospital Project: A Cooperative Healthcare Initiative in Okfuskee County")

![["The memo discusses a proposed amendment by the Council on Environmental Quality to regulate off-road vehicle use on public lands. Manufacturers and enthusiasts are opposed to a potential ban on ORV use. The Secretary of the Interior clarifies that the amendment does not mean a blanket closure of public lands to ORV use and plans to implement regulations with public input. A letter urges Senator Bartlett to recommend reconsideration of a potential ban on ORV use. A news release from the Department of the Interior states that off-road vehicle use will continue on federal lands, with restrictions in place to protect fragile areas from damage. The Secretary emphasizes the need for voluntary actions by ORV users to prevent harm to land and resources. The Executive Order allows for closures of specific areas where ORV use is causing adverse effects, but does not constitute a general ban. The Department will continue to protect land resources and engage with user organizations in planning land use."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Dewey%20F.%20Bartlett%20Collection/Subject,%201946-1978-CAC_CC_003_2_0000_0000_0000/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0000-Indian%20Affairs,%20Senate%20Committee%20Memos,%201973%20Nov.%20-%201978%20June.,%201973-1978%20-%20NEW/thumbnails/CAC_CC_003_2_36_10_0008_thumbnail.jpg "Proposed Amendment on Off-Road Vehicle Use on Public Lands Sparks Controversy")
