About the company
Chemehuevi Indian Tribe Of The Chemehuevi Reservation, California, a federally recognized tribal government headquartered in Havasu Lake, California, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants and as a prime contractor on small federal contracts, competing full-and-open with no set-aside designation across 27 customer agencies. The tribe does not hold seats on GWACs, BPAs, or other parent contract vehicles and has no identified subcontract footprint.
The tribe's federal footprint is dominated by grant work across environmental management, transit operations, airport infrastructure, health services, historic preservation, and community development. Recent grant recipients include the Department of Transportation Federal Aviation Administration for $2.69 million under the Airport Improvement Program (CFDA 20.116) to rehabilitate runway 16/34 lighting at Needles Airport, with performance through July 2030; the Federal Transit Administration for $543.2 thousand under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to maintain and repair the Chemehuevi Transit Ferry Boat; and the Environmental Protection Agency for $190 thousand to implement a nonpoint source management program focusing on water quality sampling and bank stabilization. The tribe also acts as recipient for Head Start programming (CFDA 93.600) through the Office of Head Start and holds grants from the National Park Service for historic preservation fund activities under the National Historic Preservation Act.
On the contract side, the tribe serves as prime contractor to the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission for annual Tribal Equal Employment Opportunity (TERO) services, with four definitive contracts ranging from $32 thousand to $33 thousand per year, awarded without set-aside designation, spanning fiscal years 2023 through 2026 with the most recent award dated October 1, 2025. The EEOC accounts for 22 awards (47% of award count) and $476 thousand of combined potential value across the visible portfolio. The Department of Housing and Urban Development's Public and Indian Housing Office and the Environmental Protection Agency rank second and third by award count (15 and 12 awards respectively). The combined potential value across all 144 awards (143 prime, 1 sub) is $632 thousand, though the tribe has obligated $69.2 million across these awards — a ratio that reflects large multi-year grants anchoring the portfolio against small annual contract renewals.
Activity has remained steady at six to seven awards per year from 2022 through 2025, with two awards visible in 2026 year-to-date. Four awards face ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months. The tribe operates Havasu Lake Airport and the Chemehuevi Transit Ferry system and actively pursues federal funding to support tribal member services in housing, healthcare, environmental management, and cultural preservation. The tribe's federal engagement is characterized by long-term grant relationships with infrastructure and environmental agencies, routine annual TERO contract renewals with EEOC, and no material commercial contracting or defense-oriented work.
