Consultation evidence supports the 

identification of the human remains 

from the Broadway and Isham Streets 

site as Munsee and their cultural 

affiliation with the Delaware Nation of 

Oklahoma; Delaware Tribe of the 

Cherokee Nation, Oklahoma; and 

Stockbridge Munsee Community, 

Wisconsin. 

Officials of New York University 

College of Dentistry have determined 

that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), 

the human remains described above 

represent the physical remains of one 

individual of Native American ancestry. 

Officials of New York University 

College of Dentistry 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 Native 

American human remains and the 

Delaware Nation of Oklahoma; Delaware 

Tribe of the Cherokee Nation, 

Oklahoma; and Stockbridge Munsee 

Community, Wisconsin. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the human remains 

should contact Dr. Louis Terracio, New 

York University College of Dentistry, 

345 East 24th St., New York, NY 10010,

Stockbridge Munsee Community, 

Wisconsin, may proceed after that date 

if no additional claimants come 

forward. 

The New York University College of 

Dentistry is responsible for notifying the

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

National Park Service 

Notice of Inventory Completion: The 

Public Museum, Grand Rapids, MI 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

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 in the possession of The Public 

Museum, Grand Rapids, MI. The human 

remains were removed from the vicinity 

of Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara County, 

CA. 

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. 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by The Public 

Museum’s professional staff in 

consultation with professional staff of 

the University of California at Santa 

Barbara, Santa Barbara, CA, and with 

the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash 

Mission Indians of the Santa Ynez 

Reservation, California. 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing a minimum of three 

individuals were removed from the 

vicinity of Santa Barbara, Santa Barbara 

County, CA. In June 1917, The Public 

Museum purchased collections from 

E.H. Crane that contained these 

individuals. No known individuals were 

identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

The human remains consist of the 

partial crania from two adult 

individuals and a relatively complete 

cranium from a third individual. 

Museum accession records indicate the 

human remains originated from the 

Santa Barbara area. There were no 

associated funerary objects or other 

records to use as a basis for dating the 

human remains. It is the expert opinion 

of Dr. Phil Watson, Anthropologist from 

the University of California at Santa 

Barbara, that the human remains are 

affiliated with the Santa Ynez Tribe of 

Mission Indians, based on demonstrated 

cultural continuity for this group in the 

Santa Barbara area for 6,000 years. 

Based on the expert opinion and other 

information supplied by Dr. Watson, as 

well as tribal consultation evidence, 

officials of The Public Museum 

reasonably believe the human remains 

are Native American and culturally 

affiliated to the Santa Ynez Band of 

Chumash Mission Indians of the Santa 

Ynez Reservation, California. 

Officials of The Public Museum have 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 

3001 (9–10), the human remains 

described above represent the physical 

remains of three individuals of Native 

American ancestry. Officials of The 

Public Museum have also 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 Native American human 

remains and the Santa Ynez Band of 

Chumash Mission Indians of the Santa 

Ynez Reservation, California. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the human remains 

should contact Marilyn Merdzinski, 

Director of Collections and Preservation, 

The Public Museum, 272 Pearl St. NW., 

Grand Rapids, MI 49504, telephone 

(616) 456–3521, before September 21, 

2009. Repatriation of the human 

remains to the Santa Ynez Band of 

Chumash Mission Indians of the Santa 

Ynez Reservation, California may 

proceed after that date if no additional 

claimants come forward. 

The Public Museum is responsible for 

notifying the Santa Ynez Band of 

Chumash Mission Indians of the Santa 

Ynez Reservation, California that this 

notice has been published.

In 1987, human remains representing 

a minimum of two individuals were 

removed from CA-SON–861 in Sonoma 

County, CA, under the direction of Dr. 

D.L. True, Professor of Anthropology at 

the University of California, Davis with 

permission of the private land owner. 

No known individuals were identified. 

No associated funerary objects are 

present. 

Based upon the site characteristics, 

the human remains described above 

from Sonoma County are determined to 

be of Native American ancestry. 

Although no associated funerary objects 

accompanied the human remains, the 

predominance of clam shell disk beads 

and clam shell disk bead manufacturing 

tools and debris in the assemblage 

indicates that CA-SON–861 was 

occupied primarily during Phase II of 

the Late Period, or approximately A.D. 

1500 to Historic times. Archeological 

and linguistic evidence indicates that 

Pomo people have occupied the area 

since at least Phase I of the Late Period 

or A.D. 1000. Based on geographical 

location and age of the archeological 

deposit, the human remains are most 

likely culturally affiliated with 

descendants of the Pomo. The modernday representatives of the Pomo are the

Big Valley Rancheria, California; Cahto

Act of 1976 and the Federal Advisory 

Committee Act of 1972, the U.S. 

Department of the Interior, Bureau of 

Land Management (BLM), Arizona 

Resource Advisory Council (RAC), will 

meet on September 17, 2009, at the Four 

Points By Sheraton located at 10220 

North Metro Parkway East in Phoenix 

from 8 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. Morning 

agenda items include: BLM State 

Director’s update on statewide issues; 

update on BLM’s Four-Tracks to Solar 

Energy Development in Arizona, and a 

presentation on the Restoration Design 

Energy Project; discussion and approval 

of the RAC Annual Work Plan 

modifications pertaining to the BLM 

Arizona strategies and priorities; update 

on the Gila Unit Travel Management 

Plan process; RAC questions on BLM

designated as the RRAC, and has the 

authority to review all BLM and Forest 

Service (FS) recreation fee proposals in 

Arizona. The afternoon meeting agenda 

on September 17 will include a brief 

review and discussion of the Recreation 

Enhancement Act (REA) Working Group 

Report, and one BLM fee proposal in 

Arizona. The fee proposal described 

below was presented at the June 25, 

RAC meeting. However, it was not voted 

on because the RAC lacked a quorum. 

The BLM Kingman Field Office is 

proposing to increase fees for use of its 

recreation facilities beginning October 1, 

2009. The fee sites and proposed 

changes are: (1) Burro Creek Individual 

Sites ($10 to $14), Burro Creek Group 

Site ($30 to $50), Wild Cow Springs 

Individual Sites ($5 to $8), Wild Cow 

Springs Group Site ($15 to $20), and 

Windy Point Individual Sites ($4 to $8). 

The purpose of the BLM fee increase is 

to continue maintenance and improve 

its campground facilities. 

Following the BLM proposal, the 

RRAC will open the meeting to public 

comments on the fee proposal. After 

completing their RRAC business, the 

BLM RAC will reconvene to provide 

recommendations to the RAC 

Designated Federal Official on the fee 

proposal and discuss future RAC 

meetings and locations.
