Campo Kumeyaay Nation
Campo Environmental Protection Agency
The Campo Environmental Protection Agency [CEPA] was created by order of the General Council of the Campo Band of Kumeyaay Indians in July of 1990. Originally created to address concerns relating to a commercial development, the scope of CEPA activities has grown to all areas of environmental protection and protection of public health.
CEPA traces its cultural origins to the traditional environmental specialists of Kumeyaay society known as Kwasiiaay. Blending traditional knowledge and modern methodologies have created a sophisticated program of environmental protections that respects and augments contemporary tribal society.
