Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural 

Items: U.S. Department of Agriculture, 

Forest Service, Chugach National 

Forest, Anchorage, AK

AGENCY: National Park Service.

ACTION: Notice.

Notice is here given under the Native 

American Graves Protection and 

Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 

3005, of the intent to repatriate cultural 

items in the possession of the U.S. 

Department of Agriculture, Forest 

Service, Chugach National Forest, 

Anchorage, AK, that meet the definition 

of ‘‘unassociated funerary objects’’

under 25 U.S.C. 3001.

This notice is published as part of the 

National Park Service’s administrative 

responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 

U.S.C. 3003 (d)(3). The determinations 

in this notice are the sole responsibility 

of the museum, institution, or Federal 

agency that has control of the cultural 

items. The National Park Service is not 

responsible for the determinations in 

this notice.

The cultural items are 10 adzed 

planks.

In 1980, U.S. Department of the 

Interior, Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) 

and U.S. Department of the Interior, 

National Park Service, Cooperative Park 

Studies Unit (CPSU) archeologists 

conducted a survey of Mummy Island I, 

a 14 (h)(1) selection in Prince William 

Sound, AK. Cultural items, along with 

human remains, were collected from 

five areas at the site. The cultural items 

are 10 adzed planks. The human 

remains were reinterred at the original 

location on October 9, 1990. Chugach 

National Forest does not have physical 

custody or control of human remains 

from the Mummy Island I site.

On October 2, 1990, U.S. Department 

of Agriculture, Forest Service, Chugach 

National Forest archeologists conducted 

an intentional excavation at Mummy 

Island I in preparation for the reburial 

of the human skeletal remains that were 

collected by BIA/CPSU in 1980. 

Archeological evidence indicates that 

the Mummy Island I site is a prehistoric 

Chugach/Sugpiaq rockshelter.

Officials of Chugach National Forest 

have determined that, pursuant to 25 

U.S.C. 3001 (3)(B), the 10 cultural items 

are reasonably believed to have been 

placed with or near individual human 

remains at the time of death or later as 

part of the death rite or ceremony and 

are believed, by a preponderance of the 

evidence, to have been removed from a 

specific burial site of a Native American 

individual. Officials of the Chugach 

National Forest also have determined 

that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), 

there is a relationship of shared group 

identity that can be reasonably traced 

between the unassociated funerary 

objects and the Native Village of 

Chenega, which is represented by 

Chugach Alaska Corporation.

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the unassociated funerary 

objects should contact Linda 

Yarborough, Forest Archeologist, 

Chugach National Forest, 3301 C Street, 

Suite 300, Anchorage, AK 99503, 

telephone (907) 271-2511, fax (907) 

271-2725, before January 21, 2005. 

Repatriation of the unassociated 

funerary objects to the Chugach Alaska 

Corporation on behalf of the Native 

Village of Chenega may proceed after 

that date if no additional claimants 

come forward.

The Chugach National Forest is 

responsible for notifying Chugach 

Alaska Corporation, Chenega 

Corporation, Native Village of Chenega, 

Tatitlek Corporation, Native Village of 

Tatitlek, English Bay Corporation, 

Native Village of Nanwalek, Port 

Graham Corporation, Native Village of 

Port Graham, Eyak Corporation, and 

Native Village of Eyak that this notice 

has been published.
