burdens, we are again soliciting 

comments from the public and other 

Federal agencies on the proposed ICR 

that is described below. We are 

especially interested in public comment

Abstract: The U.S. Geological Survey 

is required to collect, evaluate, publish 

and distribute information concerning 

earthquakes. Respondents have an 

opportunity to voluntarily supply 

information concerning the effects of 

shaking from an earthquake—on 

themselves, buildings, other man-made 

structures, and ground effects such as 

faulting or landslides. Respondents’ 

observations are interpreted in terms of 

numbers that measure the strength of 

shaking, and the resulting numbers are 

displayed on maps that are viewable 

from USGS earthquake websites. 

Observations are submitted via the Felt 

Report questionnaire accessed from the 

USGS Did You Feel It? Earthquake 

Questionnaire web pages, and may be 

submitted via computer or mobile 

phone. Respondents are asked to 

provide information on the location to 

which the report pertains. The locations 

may, at the respondent’s option, be 

given imprecisely (city-name or postal 

Zip Code) or precisely (street address, 

geographic coordinates, or current 

location determined by the user’s 

mobile phone). Low resolution maps of 

shaking based on both precise and 

imprecise observations are published for 

all earthquakes for which observations 

are submitted. For earthquakes felt by 

many respondents, the observations that 

are associated with more precise 

locations are used in the preparation of 

higher resolution maps of earthquake 

shaking. 

We will protect information from 

respondents considered proprietary 

under the Freedom of Information Act 

(5 U.S.C. 552) and implementing 

regulations (43 CFR part 2), and under 

regulations at 30 CFR 250.197, ‘‘Data 

and information to be made available to 

the public or for limited inspection.’’ 

Responses are voluntary. No questions 

of a ‘‘sensitive’’ nature are asked. We 

will release data collected on these 

forms only in formats that do not 

include proprietary information 

volunteered by respondents.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is 

here given in accordance with the 

Native American Graves Protection and 

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

3003, of the completion of an inventory 

of human remains under the control of 

the Kansas State Historical Society, 

Topeka, KS. The human remains were 

removed from St. Francis, Cheyenne 

County, KS. 

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 Native 

American human remains. The National 

Park Service is not responsible for the 

determinations in this notice. 

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the Kansas State 

Historical Society professional staff in 

consultation with representatives of the 

Cheyenne and Arapaho Tribes, 

Oklahoma [previously listed as 

Cheyenne-Arapaho Tribes of 

Oklahoma]; Kaw Nation, Oklahoma; 

Northern Cheyenne Tribe of the 

Northern Cheyenne Indian Reservation, 

Montana; and The Osage Nation 

[previously listed as Osage Tribe] 

(hereafter referred to as ‘‘The Consulted 

Tribes’’). 

History and Description of the Remains 

On June 30, 2014, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed from 114 

South Scott Street, St. Francis, 

Cheyenne County, KS. The human 

remains were found in a home-made 

coffin located in a building that had 

recently been purchased by an 

individual. Cheyenne County Kansas 

Sheriff Cody Beeson was notified of the 

discovery, whereupon he, Undersheriff 

Rodriquez, KBI agent Mark Kendrick, 

Deputy Coroner Dr. Mary Beth Miller, 

and Melvin Coffer visited the site. Coffer 

suspected that the skeletal remains had 

been used in ceremonies performed by 

the Oddfellows. Sheriff Cody Beeson 

took possession of the human remains 

and contacted Robert J. Hoard, Kansas 

State Archeologist. At Hoard’s request, 

on June 30, 2014, Sheriff Cody 

transferred the human remains to 

Hoard. They arrived at the Kansas State 

Historical Society on July 17, 2014. No 

known individual was identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

The human remains include the major 

parts of a human skeleton in fair 

condition, but evidence of weathering 

suggests the remains had been exposed 

to the open for an unknown period of 

time. Osteological analysis by Michael 

Finnegan, Ph.D., D–ABFA indicates the 

remains belong to a female, 35–40 years 

of age, and morphological attributes of 

the cranium and femur indicate Native 

American ancestry. Because of the 

weathering of the elements, it is 

believed that the human remains were
