Abstract:The Jamestown S'Klallam Tribe is a rural Tribal community on the upper Olympic Peninsula in Washington State, and the majority of its services and government buildings are based in Clallam County. The Tribal transportation staff engages regularly with government agencies at the State, regional, and county levels by coordinating on highway projects with the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), participating in the Peninsula Regional Transportation Planning Organization (PRTPO), and attending County Commissioner meetings in Clallam County. Recent collaboration with WSDOT and the regional planning organization benefitted the Tribe through improved pedestrian safety, training on Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Title 23 regulations, and increased visibility and recognition among regional planning organizations.
