Notice of Intent To Repatriate Cultural Items Amendment: The Andy 
Warhol Museum, Pittsburgh, PA

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior.

ACTION: Notice; amendment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and 
Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), The Andy Warhol Museum has amended a Notice 
of Intent to Repatriate published in the Federal Register on August 3, 
2023. This notice amends the cultural affiliation in a collection 
removed from Moody County, SD.

DATES: Repatriation of the cultural item in this notice may occur on or 
after January 12, 2024.

ADDRESSES: Matt Gray, Director of Archives, The Andy Warhol Museum, 117 
Sandusky Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15212, telephone (412) 237-8363, email 
<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#81e6f3e0f8ecc1f6e0f3e9eeedafeef3e6"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="5e392c3f27331e293f2c36313270312c39">[email protected]</span></a>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published as part of the 
National Park Service's administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA. 
The determinations in this notice are the sole responsibility of The 
Andy Warhol Museum. The National Park Service is not responsible for 
the determinations in this notice. Additional information on the 
amendments and determinations in this notice, including the results of 
consultation, can be found in the summary or related records held by 
The Andy Warhol Museum.

Amendment

    This notice amends the determinations published in a Notice of 
Intent to Repatriate in the Federal Register (88 FR 51345, August 3, 
2023). Repatriation of the item in the original Notice of Intent to 
Repatriate has not occurred.
    Before the date when repatriation could occur (September 5, 2023), 
a request for repatriation of the same object from the Cheyenne River 
Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne River Reservation, South Dakota was 
submitted to The Andy Warhol Museum. The Tribe that submitted the first 
request for repatriation, the Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South 
Dakota was informed of the second request. Soon after, on August 28, 
2023, the Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe of South Dakota rescinded their 
request in favor of the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne 
River Reservation, South Dakota.

Determinations (as Amended)

    Pursuant to NAGPRA and its implementing regulations, and after 
consultation with the appropriate Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian 
organizations, The Andy Warhol Museum determined that:
    <bullet> The one cultural item described above have ongoing 
historical, traditional, or cultural importance central to the Native 
American group or culture itself, rather than property owned by an 
individual.
    <bullet> There is a relationship of shared group identity that can 
be reasonably traced between the cultural items in this notice and the 
Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne River Reservation, South 
Dakota.

Requests for Repatriation

    Additional, written requests for repatriation of the cultural item 
in this notice must be sent to the Responsible Official identified in 
ADDRESSES. Requests for repatriation may be submitted by any lineal 
descendant, Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian organization not 
identified in this notice who shows, by a preponderance of the 
evidence, that the requestor is a lineal descendant or a culturally 
affiliated Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian organization.
    Repatriation of the cultural item in this notice to a requestor may 
occur on or after January 12, 2024. If competing requests for 
repatriation are received, The Andy Warhol Museum must determine the 
most appropriate requestor prior to repatriation. Requests for joint 
repatriation of the cultural item are considered a single request and 
not competing requests. The Andy Warhol Museum is responsible for 
sending a copy of this notice to the Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian 
organizations identified in this notice.
    Authority: Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act, 
25 U.S.C. 3003, and the implementing regulations, 43 CFR 10.8, 10.10, 
10.13, and 10.14.

    Dated: December 6, 2023.
Melanie O'Brien,
Manager, National NAGPRA Program.
