The Shoshone-Bannock Tribes will sign a law enforcement agreement tomorrow with state and federal officials.

Under the agreement, the tribe will cooperate in drug investigations and other law enforcement activities. The goal is to coordinate with agencies in areas surrounding the reservation in southeast Idaho.

Tribal officials have become increasingly concerned about illegal drug activity, especially the rise in methamphetamine use and trafficking on the reservation. They met with state, local and federal agencies last October to discuss the problem.
