Lake, Sonoma, and Mendocino County Tribal Listening Session: Summary

In May 2021 the Big Valley Band of Pomo Indians, the Middletown Rancheria of Pomo Indians of California, and the CalEPA Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) jointly convened a listening session with Lake, Sonoma, and Mendocino county Tribes. The listening session had the following objectives:

  • Listen to perspectives from tribal communities in Lake, Sonoma, and Mendocino counties on climate change impacts they are experiencing and identify common themes
  • Collect tribal input to help the OEHHA Indicators of Climate Change in California report raise awareness about tribal-specific climate change impacts and increase recognition of the value of tribal knowledge in reporting climate change impacts

OEHHA respects the right of tribal nations to govern the collection, ownership, and application of their data. Participating tribes have reviewed and approved the information shared in this summary.
