4 Tribal Nations of San Diego County This Chapter Presents an Overall Summary of the Tribal Nations of San Diego County and the Water Resources on Their Reservations 4 Tribal Nations of San Diego County This chapter presents an overall summary of the Tribal Nations of San Diego County and the water resources on their reservations. A brief description of each Tribe, along with a summary of available information on each Tribe’s water resources, is provided. The water management issues provided by the Tribe’s representatives at the San Diego IRWM outreach meetings are also presented. 4.1 Reservations San Diego County features the largest number of Tribes and Reservations of any county in the United States. There are 18 federally-recognized Tribal Nation Reservations and 17 Tribal Governments, because the Barona and Viejas Bands share joint-trust and administrative responsibility for the Capitan Grande Reservation. All of the Tribes within the San Diego IRWM Region are also recognized as California Native American Tribes. These Reservation lands, which are governed by Tribal Nations, total approximately 127,000 acres or 198 square miles. The locations of the Tribal Reservations are presented in Figure 4-1 and summarized in Table 4-1. Two additional Tribal Governments do not have federally recognized lands: 1) the San Luis Rey Band of Luiseño Indians (though the Band remains active in the San Diego region) and 2) the Mount Laguna Band of Luiseño Indians. Note that there may appear to be inconsistencies related to population sizes of tribes in Table 4-1. This is because not all Tribes may choose to participate in population surveys, or may identify with multiple heritages. 4.2 Cultural Groups Native Americans within the San Diego IRWM Region generally comprise four distinct cultural groups (Kumeyaay/Diegueno, Luiseño, Cahuilla, and Cupeño), which are from two distinct language families (Uto-Aztecan and Yuman-Cochimi). These cultural groups are distributed throughout San Diego County and their respective traditional territories include areas in neighboring counties. In general, Luiseño, Cupeño, and Cahuilla cultural groups are located in the northern half of San Diego County, while Kumeyaay/Diegueno cultural groups are located in the southern half of San Diego County (see Figure 4-2). However, members of the various tribes in San Diego County have interacted for centuries and individuals may consider themselves part of multiple cultural traditions, despite being enrolled in a particular tribe (e.g., Barona Band of Mission Indians) or living on a particular reservation. Neighboring Tribes whose land falls outside the San Diego IRWM Region, but may have an interest in, or impact on, the water management and water issues of the Region include the Pechanga Band of Luiseño Indians, located near Temecula, CA; the Cahuilla Band of Indians, located near Anza, CA; and the Torres-Martinez Desert Cahuilla Indians, located near Coachella, CA. 4-1 2013 San Diego Integrated Regional Water Management Plan FINAL Figure 4-1: Tribal Nation Reservations Temecula Creek Riverside County San Diego County Pala Reservation Pauma Reservation Los Coyotes Reservation 5 ¨¦§ Santa Margarita River Rincon Reservation La Jolla Reservation San Luis Rey River UV76 ¨¦§15 San Pasqual Reservation UV78 Santa Ysabel Reservation Santa Ysabel Creek Agua Hedionda Creek San Marcos Creek Escondido Creek Mesa Grande Reservation San Marcos Creek Inaja and Cosmit Reservation Lusardi Creek Boulder Creek San Dieguito River Barona Reservation Sweetwater River UV56 Los Penasquitos Creek Capitan Grande Reservation Viejas Reservation Ewiiaapaayp Reservation 805 San Diego River ¨¦§ ¨¦§8 UV52 UV163 UV125 Sycuan Reservation Manzanita Reservation La Posta Reservation 15 54 ¨¦§ UV Pine Valley Creek Jamul Indian Village Cottonwood Creek Campo Reservation UV75 Dulzura Creek Cottonwood Creek Otay River Tecate Creek Tijuana River Rio Tijuana Mexico Rio Alamar Arroyo Seco Legend Tribal Lands Watershed San Diego IRWM Region ± Funding Area Boundary Waterbody County 0 2.5 5 10 River Miles Freeway Source: San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) - GIS Data Warehouse \\rmcsd\RMCSD\Projects GIS\0188-003 SDIRWM Plan Update\AdminDraftMaps\060713_JD\Fig4-1_Tribal Reservations 060713.mxd Tribal Nations September 2013 Table 4-1: San Diego County Tribal Governments and Reservations Name Population Reservation Total Population Housing No. Ethnology/Language Acreage Reservation Tribal Nation Tribal (Tribal members Units Members1 and non- members)2 1 Barona Reservation Barona Band of Mission Indians Ipai-Tipai/Diegueno 5,664 536 640 219 2 Campo Reservation Campo Band of Kumeyaay Indians Kumeyaay/Diegueno 15,336 351 362 140 Capitan Grande Capitan Grande Band of Mission Indians, 3 Kumeyaay/Diegueno 15,615 33 0 0 Reservation consisting of the Barona and Viejas Bands Ewiiaapaayp Band of Kumeyaay Indians 4 Ewiiaapaayp Reservation (formerly Cuyapaipe Band of Mission Kumeyaay/Diegueno 4,156 N/A 0 0 Indians) Inaja & Cosmit 2 5 Inaja – Cosmit Band of Indian Kumeyaay/Diegueno 846 15 0 0 Reservation 6 Jamul Indian Village Jamul Indian Village Kumeyaay/Diegueno 6.23 60 0 0 7 La Jolla Reservation La Jolla Band of Indians Luiseño 8,822 390 476 181 8 La Posta Reservation La Posta Band of Mission Indians Kumeyaay/Diegueno 3,471 18 55 19 Los Coyotes Band of Cahuilla and Cupeño 3 4 9 Los Coyotes Reservation Cahuilla, Cupeño 25,050 328 98 35 Indians 10 Manzanita Reservation Manzanita Band of the Kumeyaay Nation Kumeyaay/Diegueno 3,563 69 78 35 Mesa Grande 11 Mesa Grande Band of Mission Indians Kumeyaay/Diegueno 1,820 75 98 24 Reservation 12 Pala Reservation Pala Band of Mission Indians Luiseño, Cupeño 12,333 1,573 1,315 425 Pauma and Yuima 6 13 Pauma/Yuima Band of Mission Indians Luiseño 5,826 186 206 63 Reservation 14 Rincon Reservation Rincon Nation of Luiseño Indians Luiseño 5,5003 1,495 1,215 357 15 San Pasqual Reservation San Pasqual Band of Indians Ipai/Kumeyaay 1,500 5003 1,097 298 Santa Ysabel 16 Ipay Nation of Santa Ysabel Diegueno 15,270 250 330 140 Reservation 17 Sycuan Reservation Sycuan Band of the Kumeyaay Nation Kumeyaay/Diegueno 632 33 211 76 18 Viejas Reservation Viejas Band of Kumeyaay Indians Kumeyaay/Diegueno 1,6963 394 520 192 19 N/A San Luis Rey Band of Luiseño Indians5 Luiseño N/A N/A N/A 20 N/A Mount Laguna Band of Kwaaymii Indians5 N/A N/A N/A 1 Based on latest information from Indian Reservations in San Diego County.

Brief descriptions for each Tribal Nation Reservation are presented in Section 4.6 below. Figure 4-2: Traditional Territories of Tribal Nations in California Approximate location of San Diego County Source: Handbook of North American Indians, Robert F. Heiner, ed. Vol. 8: California. 1978. 4.3 Tribal Autonomy While the Tribal Nations are sovereign and have autonomy over their lands, they are subject to Federal environmental laws and regulations. Sovereign Tribal Nations are not subject to State and local environmental laws and regulations, except for those required under a Compact with the State, and other independent agreements between the Tribal Governments and local agencies. While State and local governments do not have any authority over Tribal Lands, in a few cases, working relationships exists between the Tribes and local jurisdictions to address water and habitat issues. For example, Tribal representatives regularly meet with officials from with the San Diego Association of Governments (SANDAG) and serve on various working groups and committees. A position reserved for a Tribal representative on the Regional Advisory Committee (RAC) is open and awaits filling by the Southern California Tribal Chairmen’s Association; in the past, Tribal representatives have participated on the RAC and on RAC workgroups. Understanding that Tribes are important partners in water resources management, and acknowledging their cultural and historical ties to the Region and its resources, the Regional Water Management Group has made a concerted effort to reach out to the Tribes within the Region. These efforts are described in detail in Chapter 6, Governance and Stakeholder Involvement. 4-4 2013 San Diego Integrated Regional Water Management Plan FINAL Tribal Nations September 2013 4.4 Tribal Resource Management The primary function of each of the Region’s Tribes is to serve as a government for the members of the Tribe. As such, many Tribes have environmental departments tasked with setting environmental regulations on Tribal lands and monitoring water resources for compliance with applicable federal laws and regulations. These tribal environmental agencies manage groundwater levels through recharge from rainfall on reservation land. In addition to formal oversight through Tribal agencies, many Tribes have a cultural connection with their water resources. This is captured, in

  • A Report on Indian Township Passamaquoddy Tribal Lands In
    A REPORT ON INDIAN TOWNSHIP PASSAMAQUODDY TRIBAL LANDS IN THE VICINITY OF PRINCETON, MAINE Anthony J. Kaliss 1971 Introduction to 1971 Printing Over two years have passed since I completed the research work for this report and during those years first one thing and ttan another prevented its final completion and printing. The main credit for the final preparation and printing goes to the Division of Indian Services of the Catholic Diocese of Portland and the American Civil Liberities Union of Maine. The Dioscese provided general assistance from its office staff headed by Louis Doyle and particular thanks is due to Erline Paul of Indian Island who did a really excellent job of typing more than 50 stencils of title abstracts, by their nature a real nuisance to type. The American Civil Liberities Union contrib­ uted greatly by undertaking to print the report Xtfhich will come to some 130 pages. Finally another excellent typist must be thanked and that is Edward Hinckley former Commissioner of Indian Affairs who also did up some 50 stencils It is my feeling that this report is more timely than ever. The Indian land problems have still not been resolved, but more and more concern is being expressed by Indians and non-Indians that something be done. Hopefully the appearance of this report at this time will help lead to some definite action whether in or out of the courts. Further research on Indian lands and trust funds remains to be done. The material, I believe, is available and it is my hope that this report will stimulate someone to undertake the necessary work.

    CHAPTER 1.0 PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROJECT CHAPTER 1.0 – PURPOSE AND NEED FOR THE PROJECT 1.1 INTRODUCTION The General Services Administration (GSA) proposes the reconfiguration and expansion of the existing San Ysidro Land Port of Entry (LPOE). The San Ysidro LPOE is located along Interstate 5 (I-5) at the United States (U.S.)-Mexico border in the San Ysidro community of San Diego, California. The proposed San Ysidro LPOE improvements are herein referred to as the “Project.” The total area of the Project Study Area, which comprises the anticipated maximum extent of disturbance, including improvements, staging areas, and temporary impacts resulting from Project construction, encompasses approximately 50 acres. Figure 1-1 illustrates the regional location of the Project, and Figure 1-2 shows the Project Study Area and the Project vicinity. The Project is included in the San Diego Association of Governments’ (SANDAG) 2030 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP; SANDAG 2007); and the 2008 Regional Transportation Improvement Plan (RTIP; SANDAG 2008), which covers Fiscal Years (FY) 2009 through 2013. 1.2 PURPOSE AND NEED 1.2.1 Purpose of the Project The purpose of the Project is to improve operational efficiency, security, and safety for cross-border travelers and federal agencies at the San Ysidro LPOE. Project goals include: Increase vehicle and pedestrian inspection processing capacities at the San Ysidro LPOE; Reduce northbound vehicle and pedestrian queues and wait times to cross the border; Improve the safety of the San Ysidro LPOE for vehicles and pedestrians crossing the border, and for employees at the LPOE; Modernize facilities to accommodate current and future demands and implementation of border security initiatives, such as the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI), the United States Visitor and Immigrant Status Indicator Technology program (US-VISIT), and the Secure Border Initiative (SBI).

  • 4.2 Agriculture and Forest Resources
    4.2 Agriculture and Forest Resources 4.2 AGRICULTURE AND FOREST RESOURCES This section evaluates the potential impacts to agriculture and forest resources associated with implementation of the 2050 RTP/SCS. The information presented was compiled from multiple sources, including the County of San Diego, the State of California Department of Conservation (DOC), the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), CAL FIRE, and local jurisdictions. 4.2.1 EXISTING CONDITIONS Agriculture Overview of Agriculture in the Region Agriculture is not only an important contributor to the economy of the San Diego region; it also is a primary land use in the unincorporated area of the region. San Diego County contains 6,687 farms and agriculture ranked fifth as a component of the region’s economic resources (County of San Diego 2010). San Diego County is the 16th largest agricultural economy among all counties in the nation. The region’s unique topography creates a wide variety of microclimates resulting in nearly 30 different types of vegetation communities. This diversity allows San Diego farmers to grow over 200 different agricultural commodities, such as strawberries along the coast, apples in the mountain areas, and palm trees in the desert (County of San Diego 2010). The region ranks first in both California and the nation in production value of nursery plants, floriculture, and avocados. Statewide, San Diego County is in the top five counties for producing cucumbers, mushrooms, tomatoes, boysenberries and strawberries, grapefruit, Valencia oranges, tangelos and tangerines, honey, and eggs. San Diego County has the largest community of organic growers in the state and nation, with 374 farms growing more than 175 crops (County of San Diego 2009).

  • Carrico Department of American Indian Studies, San Diego State University
    CLANS AND SHIMULLS/SIBS OF WESTERN SAN DIEGO COUNTY RICHARD L. CARRICO DEPARTMENT OF AMERICAN INDIAN STUDIES, SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY In San Diego County and northern Baja California the social and political make-up of the Kumeyaay (Ipai and Tipai) is fairly well documented for the settlements and villages east of the western foothills of the Cuyamaca Mountains and into the western Imperial Desert. By contrast, the traditional and historical distribution and names of the coastal and inland valley clans is far less documented. This paucity of data for the western clans is largely a function of the removal of these clans from the region by European colonialists and their settlement in the interior of San Diego County by 1875. The goal of this study is to fill in the gaps in our knowledge of the precontact and early proto-historic coastal and inland valley clans through the use of Spanish mission records and early historic documents. As a result of this study 10 coastal and inland valley clans have been identified and their general area of distribution plotted. The combination of earlier studies with the current study provides a much clearer and more complete depiction of the Kumeyaay clans of San Diego County. The Kumeyaay people of San Diego County trace their family lineage back to a distant past and often to animals and creatures from another time. In spite of decades of study, traditional Kumeyaay social organization remains unclear. The basic unit appears to have been kin groups referred to by a variety of names including sib, shimulls, cimuLs, gens, and gentes.

The community of San Ysidro was itself annexed by the City of San Diego in the mid-1950s, in what was publicly articulated as a dispute over water rights. This dissertation argues that the annexation was over who was to have control of the port of entry, and would in turn, set the stage for a gendered/racialized power struggle that has contributed to both real and symbolic violence on the border. This dissertation is situated at the crossroads of urban studies, border studies and ethnic studies and places violence as a central analytical category. As such, this interdisciplinary work is manifold. It is a community history of San Ysidro in its simultaneous relationship to the U-S///Mexico border and to the City of San Diego.

R. Todd and R. E. Learned U.S. Geological Survey and Thomas J. Peters and Ronald T. Mayerle U.S. Bureau of Mines STUDIES RELATED TO WILDERNESS Under the provisions of the Wilderness Act (Public Law 88-577, September 3, 1964) and the Joint Conference Report on Senate Bill 4, 88th Congress, the U.S. Geological Survey and the U.S. Bureau of Mines have been conducting mineral surveys of wilderness and primitive areas. Areas officially designated as "wilderness," "wild," or "canoe" when the act was passed were incorporated into the National Wilderness Preservation System, and some of them are presently being studied. The act provided that areas under consideration for wilderness designation should be studied for suitability for incorporation into the Wilderness System. The mineral surveys constitute one aspect of the suitability studies. The act directs that the results of such surveys are to be made available to the public and be submitted to the President and the Congress. This report discusses the results of min­ eral surveys of the Sill Hill (5-304), Hauser (5-021), and Caliente (5-017) Roadless Areas, Cleveland National Forest, San Diego dpunty, California. SUMMARY The Sill Hill, Hauser, and Caliente Roadless Areas comprise approximately 20,000 acres in the Cleveland National Forest, San Diego County, Calif, (fig. 1).
