Lower Brule Sioux Tribe

190 Oyate Cir
Lower Brule, SD 57548

The Lower Brule Sioux Tribe's Environmental Protection Office (EPO) is dedicated to safeguarding public health through environmental education, capacity building, and the development of environmental codes and ordinances. They engage in environmental monitoring and provide technical assistance while collaborating with various agencies on funding and projects to address pressing environmental issues.

A key focus of the EPO is its Water Quality Program, which has been monitoring shoreline erosion along the Missouri River since 2011 in partnership with the USGS and Oglala Lakota College. This initiative employs advanced technologies such as unmanned aerial systems, LiDAR, and RTK satellite navigation to assess and mitigate the impacts of erosion on cultural sites, drinking water quality, and local agriculture.
