Pilot Station Traditional Village

Pilot Station Traditional Village is a federally recognized tribal government and tribally owned firm located in Alaska, registered in the System for Award Management (SAM) since 2006. As a tribal entity, the organization focuses on environmental management, community development, and infrastructure resilience for its local community. The village has consistently demonstrated its capacity to receive and effectively manage federal grant awards across multiple civilian agencies, with a particular emphasis on environmental protection, energy infrastructure, and community support initiatives.

The organization has received federal grant awards from several key agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Department of Energy, Bureau of Land Management, and the U.S. Department of the Treasury. These grants have supported a diverse range of projects, such as environmental capacity building, solid waste management, water quality monitoring, electric grid resilience, hazardous fuels reduction, and COVID-19 response initiatives. Specific grant programs have included the Indian Environmental General Assistance Program, Grid Infrastructure Deployment and Resilience Program, and the Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund. The grants have enabled Pilot Station Traditional Village to hire local workers, conduct technical training, improve administrative skills, enhance community infrastructure, and develop strategic environmental management capabilities. Their work often involves collaborating with regional partners like the Yukon River Inter-Tribal Watershed Council, with a consistent focus on building tribal capacity, improving community resilience, and addressing critical environmental and infrastructure challenges in rural Alaska.
