United Auburn Indian Community has established an Environmental Protection Office to address tribal environmental issues.
The Environmental Protection Office has sponsored several cleanup days at the Auburn Rancheria and worked to restore the historic rancheria to its traditional beauty. The office was also integral in investigating the newly acquired land in Sheridan, CA to be used a master planned community for tribal members. The Environmental Protection Office even took the initiative to build a swallows sanctuary at Thunder Valley Casino Resort. The birds had become pests around the casino's roof, so the office explored the options and decided to offer the birds a more desirable alternatives to make their nests.
The Environmental Protection Office continues to look for ways to address tribal environmental issues on and off the reservation. Questions and comments regarding UAIC’s environmental protection program are welcome. For more information, please contact the UAIC Tribal Office (530-883-2320) during regular business hours.
