	Confederated Tribes of Siletz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Confederated Tribes of Siletz in the United States is a federally-recognized confederation of 27 Native American tribal bands that once inhabited a range from northern California to southwest Washington.
		In 1977, the Confederation became the second tribe in the U.S. to have its federal status restored.
		It includes remnants of the Siletz, a Coast Salish people who inhabited the area up until the middle 19th century but who are no longer counted separately in the larger confederation.

		The parties agree that because Siletz is a federally recognized Indian tribe, it is not subject to ORS chapter 657 in the absence of an election to be treated as such.
		Siletz expressly asserted in its 1979 election that it was an "employing unit." To qualify as an "employing unit," Siletz had to satisfy one of the alternative definitions specified in ORS 657.020(1) (1977).
		Siletz argues, in a footnote to its brief on review, that if EAB had granted its request for reconsideration, Siletz would have introduced affidavits by tribal members averring that the eleven employees for whom coverage was elected excluded tribal council members.
