We developed our community in the Jilkaat Kwaan territory for thousands of years while stewarding and protecting the land, water, plants, animals and way of life of our people. We stand against the Palmer Project because evidence suggests that it may damage our waterways, and therefore all our natural resources, cultural practices, and economic systems. Klukwan translates roughly to “Eternal Village.” We are not willing to risk the longterm vitality of future generations for short-term economic gains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562375741145-ZCZJWKXYEAZ1Q3QQPVMS/KlukwanVillage_Gallagher.jpg Tradeoffs https://www.chilkatwatershed.org/donate daily 0.75 2020-03-11 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1563302403221-4TH3YEKORWA310GQQOQ3/Klukwan_Arisman.jpg Donate The Chilkat Indian Village will spend over $50,000.00 annually do the following: - Develop a baseline water quality analysis of the watershed. - Engage in government-to-government consultation. https://www.chilkatwatershed.org/economic daily 0.75 2022-11-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1591135566880-L3OQI5JDGZZC9EA17M8U/LCC_Infographic_v2-1.jpg Economic Viability Photo Connor Gallagher https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1591135434622-OF4PF9SSSAKMR1H2ADNP/golden+goose.jpg Economic Viability https://www.chilkatwatershed.org/pea-doc daily 0.75 2020-06-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562997808514-UD2P3DGNOG0128W4LBQH/LCC+chilkat_map+Catalyst-1.jpg PEA Doc https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562375347699-218OG59SAE1QFQGHNY1A/Constantine_Nyborg.jpg PEA Doc Photo Annie Nyborg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562660786638-0A96MWCUD00IUN5GBR38/Moon2_Arisman.jpg PEA Doc - History Photo Connor Gallagher https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562375052267-N0VK54B57XOWX3XKC7DC/Heli_Nyborg.jpg PEA Doc https://www.chilkatwatershed.org/pea-infographic daily 0.75 2020-06-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562375347699-218OG59SAE1QFQGHNY1A/Constantine_Nyborg.jpg EA Infographic Photo Annie Nyborg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562997808514-UD2P3DGNOG0128W4LBQH/LCC+chilkat_map+Catalyst-1.jpg EA Infographic https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5c626ebea5682792e1ff1c14/1562660786638-0A96MWCUD00IUN5GBR38/Moon2_Arisman.jpg EA Infographic - History Photo Connor Gallagher https://www.chilkatwatershed.org/home-alt-bedford daily 0.75 2025-05-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390500612440-PGQSIY8KL9F7T5VIXQLO/chambers-2.jpg Home Alt A better world Starts with a choice Contact Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390500503574-5BAPXZO9U06UV61P49UO/chambers1.jpg Home Alt Sustainability Starts with you Join Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390500933384-LII4SRIPHFYOUFX0UCXC/chambers-4.jpg Home Alt A better world Starts with a choice Join Us https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/52a74d9ae4b0253945d2aee9/1390504287124-HQ8GNX1JCE22V047MSQ9/chambers-8.jpg Home Alt Preserve Nature Join Us
