Havasupai Tribe

Population: 465

Size: 275 sq. mi.

Median Household Income: $32,000

In 2012 and 2013, the Havasupai tribe partnered with EPA, BIA, and others to build a 500 kW solar PV system on Long Point, above the canyon where the tribal community lies. The system was built as part of a settlement enforcement action taken by U.S. EPA for violations of RCRA, CAA, AHERA, and the SDWA.

This information was gathered using web searches and not from conversations with tribal representatives. The census data was found online and represents 2010 figures.
