Consisting of 88.5 acres located on Table Bluff, at the South end of Humboldt Bay, the “new” Reservation was acquired by the Tribe in 1991.  The Reservation is home to 140 residents and the Tribal government, which serves 400 tribal members.  The primary water resource the Tribe manages on the new Reservation is a small, seasonal wetland located near the northern Reservation boundary.  While the wetland has not been officially delineated, approximately .5 acres of the 2.5-acre wetland are located on the Tribe’s land (the rest of the wetland occurs on a neighboring property to the east of the Reservation).  The ground water of the Reservation currently goes unutilized by the Tribe.  The northern Reservation boundary falls short of the south end of Humboldt Bay (a 15’-wide strip is owned by the State Wildlife Conservation Board); otherwise, the Tribe would have some jurisdiction of those waters as well.
