The Burns Paiute Tribe of Oregon is hoping to turn a state archives center into a money-making venture.
The center was created to store records for state agencies but has seen little use. So state auditors are recommending to get rid of it.
The tribe hopes to prevent that from happening. Possible ideas include managing part of the center, using it to store tribal records and using it for national records. The tribe has created a corporation to compete for federal contracts..
