Tribal leader, environmental champion Norm Harry dies at 65
Three-term chair of the Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribe Norm Harry died this week. He was 65.
Harry was an advocate for tribal water rights, and he was instrumental in getting the Truckee River Operating Agreement signed. That agreement designated much of the Truckee River waters to the tribe and settled claims among multiple parties for water rights.
Harry was a champion of the land, water and Indigenous people.
