DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR

National Park Service

Notice of Inventory Completion for

Native American Human Remains from

Washington State in the Possession of

the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural

History, New Haven, CT

AGENCY: National Park Service

ACTION: Notice

Notice is hereby given in accordance

with provisions of the Native American

Graves Protection and Repatriation Act

(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003 (d), of the

completion of an inventory of human

remains from Washington State in the

possession of the Yale Peabody Museum

of Natural History, New Haven, CT. A detailed assessment of the human

remains was made by Yale Peabody

Museum professional staff in

consultation with representatives of the

Jamestown Band of S’Kallam Indians.

In 1873, human remains representing

three individuals were donated to the

Yale Peabody Museum of Natural

History by Dr. T.T. Minor. These human

remains were recovered near Port

Townsend, WA. No known individuals

were identified. No associated funerary

objects are present. Based on cranial deformation, these

individuals have been determined to be

Native American. No diagnostic artifacts

that would indicate the antiquity of

these remains exist in the Peabody

Museum’s collections. No information

about the circumstances of recovery of

these remains or the nature of their

interment exists in the Peabody

Museum’s records. Consultation

evidence provided by representatives of

the Jamestown Band of S’Klallam

Indians indicates that the Port

Townsend, WA area is within the

traditional territory of the Jamestown

Band of S’Klallam Indians.

Based on the above mentioned

information, officials of the Yale

Peabody Museum of Natural History

have determined that, pursuant to 43

CFR 10.2 (d)(1), the human remains

listed above represent the physical

remains of three individuals of Native

American ancestry. Lastly, officials of

the Yale Peabody Museum of Natural

History have determined that, pursuant

to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is a

relationship of shared group identity

which can be reasonably traced between

these Native American human remains

and the Jamestown Band of S’Klallam

Indians.

This notice has been sent to officials

of the Jamestown Band of S’Klallam

Indians, the Port Gamble Indian

Community of the Port Gamble

Reservation, the Makah Indian Tribe of

the Makah Reservation, the Swinomish

Indians of the Swinomish Reservation,

and the Tulalip Tribes of the Tulalip

Reservation. Representatives of any

other Indian tribe that believes itself to

be culturally affiliated with these

human remains should contact Dr.

Richard Burger, Director, Yale Peabody

Museum of Natural History, 170

Whitney Avenue, P.O. Box 208118, New

Haven, CT 06520–8118; telephone: (203)

432–3752, before January 2, 1998.

Repatriation of the human remains to

the Jamestown Band of S’Klallam

Indians may begin after that date if no

additional claimants come forward.

The National Park Service is not

responsible for the determinations

within this notice.

Dated: November 19, 1997.

INTERNATIONAL TRADE

COMMISSION

[Investigations Nos. 701–TA–368–371

(Final)]

Certain Steel Wire Rod From Canada,

Germany, Trinidad and Tobago, and

Venezuela

Determinations

On the basis of the record 1 developed

in the subject investigations, the United

States International Trade Commission

determines, pursuant to section 705(b)

of the Tariff Act of 1930 (19 U.S.C.

§ 1671d(b)) (the Act), that an industry in

the United States is not materially

injured or threatened with material

injury, and the establishment of an

industry in the United States is not

materially retarded, by reason of

imports from Canada, Trinidad and

Tobago, and Venezuela of certain steel

wire rod, provided for in subheadings

7213.91.30, 7213.91.45, 7213.91.60,

7213.99.00, 7227.20.00, and 7227.90.60

of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of

the United States, that have been found

by the Department of Commerce to be

subsidized by the respective

governments of these countries.2 The

Commission also determines pursuant

to the Act that subsidized imports from

Germany are negligible, and its

investigation of such imports is thereby

terminated (19 U.S.C. § 1671d(b)(1)).

Background

The Commission instituted these

investigations effective February 26,

1997, following receipt of a petition

filed with the Commission and the

Department of Commerce by

Connecticut Steel Corp., Wallingford,

CT; Co-Steel Raritan, Perth Amboy, NJ;

GS Industries, Inc., Georgetown, SC;

Keystone Steel & Wire Co., Peoria, IL;

North Star Steel Texas, Inc., Beaumont,

TX; and Northwestern Steel & Wire,

Sterling, IL. The final phase of the

investigations was scheduled by the

Commission following notification of

preliminary determinations by the

Department of Commerce that imports

of certain steel wzire rod from Canada,

Germany, Trinidad and Tobago, and

Venezuela were being subsidized within

the meaning of section 703(b) of the Act

(19 U.S.C. § 1671b(b)). Notice of the

scheduling of the Commission’s

investigations and of a public hearing to

be held in connection therewith was

given by posting copies of the notice in

the Office of the Secretary, U.S.

International Trade Commission,

Washington, DC, and by publishing the

notice in the Federal Register of August

20, 1997 (62 FR 44288). The hearing was

held in Washington, DC, on October 16,

1997, and all persons who requested the

opportunity were permitted to appear in

person or by counsel.

On October 22, 1997, the Department

of Commerce (‘‘Commerce’’) published

notice in the Federal Register of the

suspensions of its countervailing duty

investigations on steel wire rod from

Trinidad and Tobago (62 FR 54960) and

Venezuela (62 FR 54966) based on

agreements it concluded with these

countries; however, at the same time

Commerce indicated that it was

continuing its investigations, pursuant

to requests by petitioners. Accordingly,

the Commission determined to continue

its investigations.
