Sho-Bans pledge to tie up Nez Perce water settlement


The Shoshone-Bannock Tribes could tie up the Nez Perce Tribe's $193 million water settlement for years, a lawyer for the Sho-Bans said.

The Sho-Bans have raised 56 objections to the deal. They say it gives the Nez Perce control over Sho-Ban territory.

The settlement has been approved by the state and federal government.
