Pulikla Tribe Of Yurok People

The Pulikla Tribe Of Yurok People, a federally recognized Native American tribe located in rural Northern California along the Lower Klamath River and Pacific Coast, operates as a tribal government providing a diverse range of environmental, cultural preservation, infrastructure, and community development services to federal agencies. Registered in SAM.gov since 2005, the tribe specializes in delivering technical studies, environmental management, cultural landscape assessments, habitat restoration, and capacity-building programs across multiple domains. As a tribal government with a focus on sustainable development, the Resighini Rancheria leverages federal funding to support its community's economic, environmental, and cultural needs.

The tribe has engaged in limited federal contract work, with a notable $340,447 firm-fixed-price contract from the Morris K. Udall Foundation to produce a Tribal Cultural Landscape Report. This contract involved non-personal professional services focused on integrating environmental science with historical, archaeological, and indigenous knowledge to document culturally significant places and resources. The contract was not set aside for any specific business category and supports the agency's mission of promoting environmental conflict resolution and increasing visibility of tribal cultural heritage resources.

The Pulikla Tribe Of Yurok People has been significantly active in federal grant awards across multiple programs and agencies, including the Environmental Protection Agency, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Reclamation, Department of Justice, and National Telecommunications and Information Administration. Key grant focus areas include environmental program capacity building, water resource management, historic preservation, climate resiliency, broadband infrastructure planning, habitat restoration, tribal victim services, and community development. Specific grant projects have involved water quality monitoring, watershed restoration, culvert replacement, Native American cultural preservation, e-waste management, climate adaptation planning, and developing tribal infrastructure. The tribe has also received sub-awards from organizations like the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission, demonstrating its ability to collaborate across different environmental and cultural preservation initiatives.
