The Kickapoo Department of Environmental Programs is responsible for solid waste identification and the remediation of illegal dump sites. In addition, KDEP will strive to incorporate cultural needs, which are the tradition and heritage of the Kickapoo people, into all documents produced for the preservation of the Tribe. To accomplish this mission, we adhere to quality assurance activities to ensure that all decisions are based on environmental data that is scientifically valid, precise, accurate, complete, representative, comparable and legally defensible. The KDEP is responsible for identifying environmental problems and developing prevention and remediation strategies. To increase the protection of its environment, the Kickapoo Tribe established the Kickapoo Department of Environmental Programs in December 1997. Our mission is to protect and manage the reservation environment for the jurisdictional and service area of the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma. We respect surface water, drinking water, air, solid waste, brownfields, underground storage tanks, hazardous waste, emergency response, environmental justice, pesticides and environmental planning projects. The Kickapoo Department of Environmental Programs (KDEP) strives to provide effective environmental programs that promote the protection of the environment and human health.
