  • The Right Thing to Do: Returning Land to the Wiyot Tribe
    THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE by Karen Elizabeth Nelson A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts In Sociology May, 2008 THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE by Karen Elizabeth Nelson Approved by the Master’s Thesis Committee: Jennifer Eichstedt, Committee Chair Date Elizabeth Watson, Committee Member Date Judith Little, Committee Member Date Jennifer Eichstedt, Graduate Coordinator Date Chris Hopper, Interim Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT THE RIGHT THING TO DO: RETURNING LAND TO THE WIYOT TRIBE Karen Elizabeth Nelson In 2004, the Eureka City Council legally returned forty acres of Indian Island to the Wiyot tribe. This return occurred one hundred and forty four years after the Indian Island massacre. This research explores the returning of sacred tribal land in the context of collective apologies and reconciliations after generations of Native genocide. The significance of this case study includes a detailed narration of how the land transfer occurred and more importantly why it was labeled “the right thing to do” by Eureka City Council members and staff. This case study was examined with a grounded theory methodology. Using no hypotheses, the research and the research methodology unfolded in a non-linear process, letting the research speak for itself. Detailed interviews and a review of documents were used to qualify and quantify this unique community based social act. The results of this case study include how and why the Eureka City Council returned forty acres of Indian Island to the Wiyot people.

  • 3.6 Cultural Resources, Including Tribal Cultural Resources
    3.6 CULTURAL RESOURCES, INCLUDING TRIBAL CULTURAL RESOURCES This section presents an evaluation of the potential impacts of project implementation on cultural resources. “Cultural resources” is a general term that encompasses CEQA’s historical resource and unique archaeological resource (see Section 3.6.2, “Regulatory Setting,” for definitions of historical resources and unique archaeological resources). Cultural resources may include archaeological traces such as early Native American occupation sites and artifacts, historic-age buildings and structures, and places used for traditional Native American observances or places with special cultural significance. These materials can be found at many locations on the landscape, and along with prehistoric and historic human remains and associated grave-goods, are protected under various state and local statutes. Tribal cultural resources are sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe. During the public scoping comment period, comments relevant to tribal lands and artifacts, and previous Scotia EIRs that addressed historical resource planning, protection, and the special Scotia Historic Resource Protection zoning provisions were received. These topics are discussed in this section. 3.6.1 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The information in this section was collected from the following cultural resources technical reports that were prepared for the project applicant. They included the results of a records search, lists

    CCA #6 Eel River Critical Coastal Area DESCRIPTION The Eel River flows from southeastern Mendocino County through southern Humboldt County to the Eel River Delta, 10 miles south of Humboldt Bay, with approximately 8 river miles within the coastal zone. Municipal, agricultural, fish and wildlife habitat (including habitat for threatened or endangered salmonids), and recreational uses are among the significant uses of this coastal watershed. Activities that may impair water quality in this Critical Mouth of the Eel River Coastal Area (CCA) watershed include illegal waste (Copyright © 2013 Kenneth & disposal; vehicle and railroad maintenance yard Gabrielle Adelman, California operations; herbicide application; gravel extraction; timber Coastal Records Project). harvesting; road building, operation, and maintenance For more photos, see the activities; dairy operations; automotive wrecking yard California Coastal Records activities; wood treatment facilities; publicly owned Project. treatment works; grazing; and failing septic systems. Waterbodies in this CCA that are listed as impaired on the current (2016) Clean Water Act 303(d) list are the Lower Eel River and Eel River Delta (impaired by sedimentation/siltation, water temperature, and aluminum); McNulty Slough in the Lower Eel River (impaired by dissolved oxygen); and Van Duzen River (impaired by sedimentation/siltation). Potential sources of these pollutants, organized by Source Categories, are listed as Agriculture (riparian and/or upland range grading); Silviculture (silviculture, harvesting/restoration/residue management, logging road construction/maintenance, and silvicultural point sources); Hydromodification (flow alteration/regulation/ modification, channel erosion, and streambank modification/destabilization); Habitat Modification (habitat modification, removal of riparian vegetation, and erosion/siltation); Construction/Land Development (construction/land development); Unspecified Nonpoint Source (nonpoint source); Natural Sources; and Source Unknown.
