Navajo Nation moves to form Paragon Power Project Authority
In Rock, Arizona, Navajo officials push creation of a tribal enterprise to manage the $5 billion Navajo Paragon Generating Station project with Bechtel Power General Electric Public Service Co of New Mexico and Combustion Engineering. The authority would have power to enter binding contracts, buy and sell property, create its own budget and sue or be sued, protecting the tribe’s government from direct liability. The plan's council backing is needed later this month to proceed.

Zuni dialysis center delayed by tribal council talks
In Zuni, a planned kidney dialysis center faced delays from Tribal Council decisions on rent and renovation funding. North American Health Systems and Medical Ambulatory Care Inc. competed, but the council delayed awards awaiting written proposals and rent terms. Officials say a 10-station clinic is desperately needed as local diabetes and renal disease rates are high and Gallup facilities cannot handle current patients.

He noted treaties may affect foreign relations rights and said domestic support could follow if no treaty barriers exist.
