An Act for the Relief of the Indians of the Fort Berthold Reservation in North Dakota

This report, dated June 4, 1946, also known as US Senate Report 1413, refers to US House Resolution 1095, which was referred to the US Senate Committee on Indian Affairs on May 21, 1946, and reported out of that committee on June 4, 1946 by US Senator Joseph C. O\u27Mahoney of Wyoming with no amendments. US House Resolution 1095 was ultimately approved June 28, 1946, becoming United States (US) Public Law 79-467, authorizing the appropriation of $400,000, in full and final settlement of all claims and demands of the Indians of the Fort Berthold Indian Reservation in North Dakota . . . which claims are based upon stipulations of an unratified treaty dated July 27, 1866 . . . to be . . .deposited in the Treasury of the United States to the credit of the Indians of the Fort Berthold Reservation and shall draw interest in accordance with existing laws. . .https://commons.und.edu/indigenous-gov-docs/1227/thumbnail.jp

Providing for the Segregation of Certain Funds of the Fort Berthold Indians on the Basis of a Membership Roll Prepared for Such Purpose

This report, dated March 6, 1956, submitted by Joseph C. O\u27Mahoney on behalf of the United States Senate Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs to accompany US Senate Bill 1251 ( A Bill to Provide for the Segregation of Certain Funds of the Fort Berthold Indians on the Basis of a Membership Roll Prepared for Such Purpose ). This report begins with an explanation of the previous distributions of principal and interest from the $12,608,625 received by the Three Affiliated Tribes of the Forth Berthold Reservation, North Dakota, in compensation for lands taken for the construction of the Garrison Dam and corresponding reservoir ($5,105, 625), and for other damages related to this taking ($7,500,000), and explains the need for Senate Bill 1251 to authorize the segregation of the remainder of these funds and retain them in the US Treasury until they are disbursed to tribal members pursuant to individual or family plans approved by the US Bureau of Indian Affairs. Following this explanation are favorable reports from the US Department of the Interior and the US Bureau of the Budget, along with the text of the resolution passed by the Tribal Business Council laying out the terms of the distribution of the remaining funds.

Resonances for "large" ergodic systems in one dimension: a review

The present note reviews recent results on resonances for one-dimensional quantum ergodic systems constrained to a large box. We restrict ourselves to one dimensional models in the discrete case. We consider two type of ergodic potentials on the half-axis, periodic potentials and random potentials. For both models, we describe the behavior of the resonances near the real axis for a large typical sample of the potential. In both cases, the linear density of their real parts is given by the density of states of the full ergodic system. While in the periodic case, the resonances distribute on a nice analytic curve (once their imaginary parts are suitably renormalized), In the random case, the resonances (again after suitable renormalization of both the real and imaginary parts) form a two dimensional Poisson cloud

Reconsidering the Tribal-State Compact Process

This essay evaluates the tribal‐state compact process, as one of several alternative, nonadversarial processes, warranting attention. It argues that, because of its binding character and relatively low cost (in contrast to litigation), and because it is based in the idea of tribes and states exhibiting mutual respect, the compact process is an advanced version of negotiation and bargaining that tribes and states should consider where appropriate

Women take care and men take charge’: The case of leadership and gender in the Public and Commercial Services Union

This article presents the findings of a case study that aimed to understand the specific leadership styles that are valued by women and men lay representatives in the Public and Commercial Services (PCS) union and to determine the gendered implications for increasing women’s leadership and representation in trade unions. Survey responses from PCS lay representatives (reps) show the majority of women and men agreed that the leadership style they value, and makes a good union leader, is post-heroic (communal) leadership. This approach is associated with leadership characteristics such as being helpful, sensitive, and kind and are generally practised by women. This contrasts with male union leaders who are associated with a traditional, heroic (agentic) leadership style characterised by confidence, self-reliance, and decisiveness. Although some differences exist that highlight gender issues, both women and men lay reps have positive attitudes towards increasing women’s representation and participation in union leadership

Implementation of Unmanned Aerial Systems Using Close-Range Photogrammetry Techniques (UAS-CRP) for Quantitative (Metric) and Qualitative (Inspection) Tasks Related to Roadway Assets and Infrastructure [Project Summary]

5-6944-01One of the main objectives of this implementation project was to validate the TxDOT Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Flight Operations and User\u2019s Manual (FOM) that was developed as part of the research project 0-6944. After the research project was successfully completed, TxDOT granted this implementation project that included nine training sessions, at different locations all over the state of Texas, and five tasks. These five tasks included multiple missions to conduct mapping and inspection at different locations. Of the five tasks, three were performed by the University of Texas at Arlington (UTA), and two were contracted to different vendors. UTA performed the tower inspections, intersection mapping, and building mapping tasks
