Confederated Tribes of Siletz
The Confederated Tribes of Siletz is a federally recognized confederation of 27 bands originally ranging from N. California to S. Washington. We occupy and manage a 3,666-acre reservation located in Lincoln County, Oregon. Resources managed include timber, water and fish. Achievement of Self Governance through congressional legislation occured in 1992. This allows our Tribe to compact directly with the U.S. Government, giving us control and accountability over tribal programs and funding. In November of 1977 the Confederated Tribes of Siletz was the second tribe in the U.S. and the first in Oregon to be restored to federal recognition.
