ITBC staff will develop the CSAF Incentives and Technical Service Program structure, assigning financial incentives to a wide variety of climate-smart practices for Tribally-managed buffalo programs that reflect the diverse needs and situations across Indian Country. This program will follow a similar structure as ITBC’s existing Herd Development Grant (HDG) program, through which ITBC successfully administered tens of millions of dollars to Member Tribes over the past 30 years. A rubric will be created to assign monetary values to compare different CSAF practices and scaled based on the level at which Tribes are able to implement these practices.
