THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 2001 Secretary of Interior Gale Norton's decision to ask for a reconsideration of the Chinook Nation recognition is not unusual, former Assistant Secretary Kevin Gover told a Connecticut newspaper. But Gover said he hopes his successor doesn't reverse the tribe's status, which he finalized in January. New Assistant Secretary Neal McCaleb has 120 days to reconsider the decision and could affirm it or reverse it. Get the Story:
