Government AdministrationMinnesota, United States201-500 Employees
The Fond du Lac Band of Lake Superior Chippewa operates as a government administration serving the Fond du Lac Reservation in Minnesota. It is one of six Chippewa Reservations organized under the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe by the Indian Reorganization Act. Governance is exercised by the Reservation Business Committee, which includes a Chairperson, Secretary/Treasurer, and three Representatives from Districts 1 (Cloquet), 2 (Sawyer), and 3 (Brookston); members are elected to four-year terms, with the Chair and Secretary-Treasurer also serving on the Executive Committee of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe. The committee oversees the daily operation and supervision of tribal programs and staff, and the organization is based in Cloquet, Minnesota. It maintains a mid-sized workforce. A recent development is Fond du Lac's collaboration with the 1854 Treaty Authority on the 2026 moose survey, with funding and personnel contributions from both parties.
