Out of the nine major reservations in Oregon, six of them have Tribal Police organizations. These six forces are the Burns Paiute Tribal Police Department, the Coquille Indian Tribal Police Department, the Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fisheries Enforcement Department, the Confederated Tribes of Grande Ronde Tribal Police, the Umatilla Tribal Police Department, and the Warm Springs Tribal Police Department. These units are restricted to working only on designated reservation property, and are often limited in number and available resources. Membership in Oregon tribal police forces ranges from 4 (Burns Paiute Tribal Police Department) to 25 individuals (Umatilla Tribal Police Department), and currently, all registered tribal policemen in Oregon are men. Most members work as full time policemen, but most reservation police forces also employ civilians who work other jobs, but can be called in under emergency circumstances. The number of civilian reserve members ranges from 0 in the Coquille Indian Tribal Police Department, to 6 in the Umatilla Tribal Police Department.[citation needed]
Coquille Tribal Police Patch
Tribal police are in charge of many of the same things as federal police officers, but are confined to the specific boundaries of the reservations that they operate on. They generally work patrol based jobs, similarly to government police forces, and are in charge of enforcing driving regulations, investigating crimes, security work, and they have full jurisdiction to arrest people violating the law on reservation land. Once a suspected criminal has left reservation boundaries, they are technically no longer under the jurisdiction of tribal police, and can now only be charged by government police units. This frequently forces tribal and state police forces to collaborate, but also has led to a lot of problems and disputes historically.[1]
