  • Technical Memorandum 13-1
    TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM 13-1 Native American Traditional Cultural Properties Yuba River Development Project FERC Project No. 2246 December 2012 ©2012, Yuba County Water Agency All Rights Reserved Yuba County Water Agency Yuba River Development Project FERC Project No. 2246 TECHNICAL MEMORANDUM 13-1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Yuba County Water Agency (YCWA) conducted a Native American Traditional Cultural Properties (TCP) Study for the Yuba River Development Project (Project), Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) Project Number 2246, from March 2009 through July 2012. The Area of Potential Effects (APE) encompassed 4,306 acres, including the FERC Project Boundary and a 200-foot radius surrounding New Bullards Bar Reservoir. YCWA requested the State Historic Preservation Officer’s (SHPO) concurrence on the APE in a letter dated March 21, 2012, and received SHPO’s concurrence in a letter dated April 19, 2012, in accordance with 36 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Section (§) 800. For relicensing of the Project, FERC designated YCWA as FERC’s non-federal representative for purposes of consultation under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended, and the implementing regulations found in 36 CFR § 800.2(c)(4). YCWA conducted several consultation meetings with tribes and agencies beginning in 2009 and continuing into 2012. YCWA, tribes, and agencies collaboratively developed study proposals and selection of the TCP Study ethnographer, Albion Environmental, Inc. Invitations to participate in each meeting were sent to tribal representatives, FERC, SHPO, Plumas National Forest, and Tahoe National Forest. Most of these individuals and organizations participated in the meetings. On October 19, 2011, YCWA convened a meeting of tribal groups and agencies to introduce members of YCWA’s team, discuss the FERC-approved study, and to initiate field consultation with the tribes.

  • Map of the Elders: Cultivating Indigenous North Central California
    HIYA ‘AA MA PICHAS ‘OPE MA HAMMAKO HE MA PAP’OYYISKO (LET US UNDERSTAND AGAIN OUR GRANDMOTHERS AND OUR GRANDFATHERS): MAP OF THE ELDERS: CULTIVATING INDIGENOUS NORTH CENTRAL CALIFORNIA CONSCIOUSNESS A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Science. TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada © Copyright by Diveena S. Marcus 2016 Indigenous Studies Ph.D. Graduate Program September 2016 ABSTRACT Hiya ʼAa Ma Pichas ʼOpe Ma Hammako He Ma Papʼoyyisko (Let Us Understand Again Our Grandmothers and Our Grandfathers): Map of the Elders, Cultivating Indigenous North Central California Consciousness By Diveena S. Marcus The Tamalko (Coast Miwok) North Central California Indigenous people have lived in their homelands since their beginnings. California Indigenous people have suffered violent and uncompromising colonial assaults since European contact began in the 16th century. However, many contemporary Indigenous Californians are thriving today as they reclaim their Native American sovereign rights, cultural renewal, and well- being. Culture Bearers are working diligently as advocates and teachers to re-cultivate Indigenous consciousness and knowledge systems. The Tamalko author offers Indigenous perspectives for hinak towis hennak (to make a good a life) through an ethno- autobiographical account based on narratives by Culture Bearers from four Indigenous North Central California Penutian-speaking communities and the author’s personal experiences. A Tamalko view of finding and speaking truth hinti wuskin ʼona (what the heart says) has been the foundational principle of the research method used to illuminate and illustrate Indigenous North Central California consciousness.

Collection Size: 2.5 linear feet(2 boxes) Repository: Center for Sacramento History Sacramento, California 95811-0229 Abstract: The David L. Joslyn papers consist of photographs and manuscripts mostly documenting Joslyn's work as a photographer and his early memories of living in Sacramento, California. Most of the photographs were taken by David Joslyn during the 1920's while he was an employee of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Therefore, many of the photos deal with the Southern Pacific and Central Pacific Railroad Lines. Some of the photographs are copied from earlier photos, drawings and lithographs. Joslyn also took numerous photographs of the State Capitol and the surrounding park as well as many shots from rooftops around the area of downtown Sacramento. These photographs are invaluable when searching for specific locations or businesses in early 20th century Sacramento.
