MONDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2003 Despite being denied federal recognition by the Bush administration, the Chinook Nation of Washington, isn't holding a grudge against the government. The tribe is working with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, an agency of the Department of Interior, on a Lewis and Clark bicentennial project. Although they are still raising money for the $300,000 project, they are building a cedar plankhouse like the ones the explorers encountered along the Columbia River. Get the Story:
