EAGLE POINT, Ariz. - Department of the Interior Deputy Secretary Tommy Beaudreau and Assistant Secretary for Indian Affairs Bryan Newland joined members of the Hualapai Tribe late yesterday for a celebration of the Tribe's historic $312 million water rights settlement. The Hualapai Tribe Water Rights Settlement Act of 2022 , the first Indian water rights settlement enacted during the Biden-Harris administration, settled the Tribe's water rights claims in Arizona and was the result of over a decade of negotiations between the federal government, Tribal leaders, state of Arizona, and other parties.
