TUSCARORA ENVIRONMENT

The TEP office shelves are brimming with rows and rows of NYPA relicensing reports, old environmental books, binders of pictures from the Tuscarora Old Picture Collection, videos and dvds, books about green design and renewable resources, and materials on Tuscarora, Haudenosaunee, and Indian-related subjects. In addition we are beginning to acquire materials for the Office through the 'Tuscarora Nation' book cultural fund.

Below is a partial list of what we have available at the Office for the Tuscarora public to read and peruse.  Please feel free to stop by our office and have a look, or give our office a call if you are looking to see something specific. We can have it available and ready for you when you stop in.  As a reminder, most materials cannot be removed from the Office and can only be freely enjoyed at TEP. Nya:we.
