    Tribal and Cultural Resources 5.11 TRIBAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES 5.11.1 PURPOSE This section identifies existing cultural (including historic and archeological resources), paleontological and tribal resources within the Study Area, and provides an analysis of potential impacts associated with implementation of the General Plan Update. Potential impacts are identified and mitigation measures to address potentially significant impacts are recommended, as necessary. This section is primarily based upon the Cultural and Tribal Cultural Resources Technical Report for the Rancho Santa Margarita General Plan Update, Rancho Santa Margarita, Orange County, California (Cultural Study), and the Paleontological Resources Impact Assessment Report for the Rancho Santa Margarita General Plan Update, Orange County, California (Paleontological Assessment), both prepared by SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) and dated April 2019; refer to Appendix F, Cultural/ Paleontological Resources Assessment. 5.11.2 EXISTING REGULATORY SETTING Numerous laws and regulations require Federal, State, and local agencies to consider the effects a project may have on cultural resources. These laws and regulations establish a process for compliance, define the responsibilities of the various agencies proposing the action, and prescribe the relationship among other involved agencies (i.e., State Historic Preservation Office and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation).

    Early Southern California History (1769-1800) by John P. Schmal (2019) This presentation explores the original Spanish settlement of Southern California in the late 18th Century, as well as the large number of indigenous communities that existed in the area. Of special interest will be the Expedition of 1781 from Álamos, Sonora, which led to the establishment of Los Angeles, San Buenaventura and Santa Barbara. Copyright © 2019 John P. Schmal Background Sebastián Vizcaíno (1548 – 1624) explored the California coast in 1602-1603. However, after this Spain lost interest in California and did not send any expeditions to California for over a century-and-a-half. Fearing that the Russians were moving down from Alaska to California, Spain regained interest in California and decided to establish some settlements in the area in the 1760s and beyond. José de Gálvez (1720 – 1787), Inspector General for the King of Spain was given permission by King Carlos III to explore Alta California and establish the first permanent Spanish presence there. Gálvez was supported in the planning of an expedition by Carlos Francisco de Croix (1699 – 1786), Viceroy of New Spain, and Father Junípero Serra (1713 – 1784), the head of the Franciscan mission to the Californias (Baja and Alta California). The expedition was planned in 1768. Gálvez placed Gaspar de Portolá (1723- 1786), recently appointed governor of Las Californias, in overall command of the expedition. Second in command was Captain Fernando Rivera y Moncada (1725 – 1781), commander of the Presidio at Loreto. 2 Copyright © 2019 John P. Schmal The San Diego Expeditions of 1769 Four expeditions were organized.

AB 1968 provides a learning opportunity for individuals who may have never heard the names of the tribes that continue to live on, learn from and care for the land. The Surfrider Foundation is a non-profit grassroots organization dedicated to the protection and enjoyment of our world’s oceans, waves and beaches through a powerful network. Founded in 1984, the Surfrider Foundation now maintains over one million supporters, activists and members, with more than 170 volunteer-led chapters and student clubs in the U.S., and more than 500 victories protecting our coasts. We have more than 20 chapters in along California’s coast, in areas including the ancestral homelands of indigenous peoples including the Chumash in Malibu, known as “Humaliwu” in the Chumash language, and Rincon, the Acjachemen in Trestles, known as “Panhe” in the Acjachemen language, the Amah Mutsun in Steamer Lane, the Ohlone in Mavericks, and the Acjachemen and Tongva shared territory in Huntington Beach, known as “Lukupangma” in the Tongva and Acjachemen language. These indigenous people continue to live in these ancestral homelands today and have embraced the sport of surfing in these areas, although the clichéd imagery of surf culture fails to reflect these facts.

Cattelino, Chair A broad examination of settler colonial hegemony of the City of Los Angeles and its municipal water institution the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) is employed to understand the impacts of erasure for two tribal communities; the Tongva who are the original people of the LA Basin and the Owens Valley Paiute (Nüümü) who are impacted by the construction of the Los Angeles Aqueduct. The paths of each tribe are different in terms of federal recognition and water rights claims but there are notable similarities in dispossession enacted by the City of LA that in turn have produced unique tribally led counter hegemonic movements to insert native history and assert tribal sovereignty to protect their ancestral water.
