PLAINTIFF, SUPERIOR COURT

JUDICIAL DISTRICT OF v. HARTFORD

STATE OF CONNECTICUT, ROBERT KLEE, IN HIS OFFICIAL : CAPACITY AS COMMISSIONER OF : THE CONNECTICUT DEPARTMENT : OF ENERGY & ENVIRONMENTAL : PROTECTION

DEFENDANTS. MAY 12, 2017

AFFIDAVIT OF RICHARD L. VELKY IN SUPPORT OF PLAINTIFF'S RESPONSE TO DEFENDANTS' MOTION TO DISMISS

Richard L. Velky, having been duly sworn, deposes and states the following:

1. I am over eighteen years of age and understand the nature and obligations of an oath. This affidavit is based on personal knowledge and the facts stated herein are true and correct.

2. I make this Affidavit in support of Plaintiffs' Response to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss.

3. I am currently Chief of the Schaghticoke Tribal Nation, and have been Chief since 1987.

4. In 1985 Alan Russell, a former STN chairman, was voted out of office in an election supervised and validated by the Connecticut Indian Affairs Council; sanctioned by the STN Tribal Council for allegations including assault and misuse of STN property for personal gain; and had his voting rights revoked. In response, he and his family left STN and, claiming that he was still the actual chairman of the Tribe, started a brand new group he called Schaghticoke Indian Tribe, or "SIT". Mr. Russell formally disassociated himself with STN on October 24, 1997. Since that time SIT—which is simply Mr. Russell and a handful of other disgruntled former STN members—have done little more than occasionally engage in litigation.

5. The State has recognized STN as the Schaghticoke Tribe since Mr. Russell's departure and the formation of SIT. Exhibit 2 is a true and correct copy of a June 14, 2000, letter sent to me by State DEP Commissioner Arthur J. Rocque, and stating in part: "Inasmuch as you have represented the Schaghticoke Tribe in matters before this Department for approximately thirteen

' Richard L. Velky, Chief

years and inasmuch as the CIAC has not accepted a challenge to the Schaghticoke Tribal seat, I see no reason to question the validity of your leadership at this time. It is therefore the intent of this Depaitment to continue to communicate with the tribe principally through you as Chief until such time as another individual claims leadership of the Schaghticoke Tribe and is able to present verifiable evidence of that claim.". This letter has been kept in STN's files since its receipt in 2000.

6. Additionally, Exhibit 3 is a true and correct copy of a July 21, 1999 letter from the State of Connecticut Indian Affairs Coordinator to me, identifying STN as the Schaghticoke Tribe, and myself as "Tribal Chairman and Chief' since 1987. This letter has been kept in STN's files since its receipt in 1999.

7. These two letters from the State, attached as Exhibits 2 and 3 to Plaintiffs' Response, expressly contradict the statement attested to by Graham J. Stevens in ¶ 11 of his affidavit attached to Defendants' Motion to Dismiss, where he states "[i]t is unclear to the DEEP whether Mr. Velky, Mr. Russell, both or neither, represent(s) the Schaghticoke, nor has the DEEP taken a position as to who is(are) the proper representative(s) of the Schaghticoke". (Emphasis added.)

8. Exhibit 4 is a true and correct copy of the June 7, 2016 Tribal Resolution CEV-16 authorizing the filing of this lawsuit.

9. Exhibit 5 is a true and correct copy of Connecticut State Archives, Indian Series 1, vol. 2, 1647-1789, p. 75.; 5/1752; Public Records of Connecticut, RC 10:108. This record has been kept in STN's files since 2004.

10. Exhibit 6 is a true and correct copy of 05/1752 CCLR 4:610-611; 4:621. This record has been kept in STN's files since 2004.

Mr. Richard L. Velky, Chief Schaghticoke Tribal Nation 601 Main Street Monroe, Connecticut 06468

Dear Chief Velky:

I am writing to clarify the agency position outlined in a letter from our Indian Affairs Coordinator, Ed Sarabia, dated May 16, 2000 prompted by your further inquiry. As you know and as we discussed in our meeting in Aprii, the Department of Environmental Protection does not have the authority to make a determination in matters relating to tribal leadership. Questions over such leadership, however, are critical to the discharge of our statutory responsibilities relating to tribes and, when disputes arise, we rely on advice from the Connecticut Indian Affairs Council. Inasmuch as you have represented the Schaghticoke Tribe in matters before this Department for approximately thirteen years and inasmuch as the CIAC has not accepted a challenge to the Schaghticoke Tribal seat, I see no reason to question the validity of your leadership at this time.

It is therefore the intent of this Department to continue to communicate with the tribe principally through you as Chief until such time as another individual claims leadership of the Schaghticoke Tribe and is able to present verifiable evidence of that claim. I. would seek the advice oft AC should the evidence supporting such a claim be in dispute.

I. hope this clarification is useful to you. If you have s, pleas., let me know.
