Ewiiaapaayp Tribal Community and Fee-to-Trust Project

The Proposed Project consists of acquisition of the Project Site into federal trust status for the benefit of the Ewiiaapaayp Band of Kumeyaay Indians and the subsequent development by the Tribe of a permanent tribal administrative office facility, a library community center, two houses, and associated infrastructure, as well as the operation of an existing re-purposed single-family residence as an emergency Tribal center, and the establishment of a conservation area along Viejas Creek. Civil regulatory jurisdiction over the Project Site would shift from the State and County to the Tribe and the federal government.
