FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Kalem Lenard, Assistant Field Manager, 

phone (719) 269–8500, email: blm_rgfo_

comments@blm.gov. Individuals in the 

United States who are deaf, deafblind, 

hard of hearing, or have a speech 

disability may dial 711 (TTY, TDD, or

Individuals outside the United States

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLM 

is committed to providing and receiving 

fair value for the use of developed 

recreation facilities and services in a 

manner that meets public-use demands, 

provides quality experiences, and 

protects important resources. The BLM’s 

policy is to collect fees at specialized 

recreation sites or where the BLM 

provides facilities, equipment, or 

services at Federal expense, in 

connection with outdoor use. Pursuant 

to FLREA and the regulations at 43 CFR 

subpart 2933, the BLM may charge 

expanded amenity fees for overnight 

camping and group use, including 

reservation services, where specific 

amenities and services are provided. 

FLREA directs the Secretary of the 

Interior to publish a 6-month advance 

notice in the Federal Register whenever 

new recreation fee areas are established. 

In accordance with BLM policy, the 

Business Plan for Royal Gorge Field 

Office Campgrounds (available at 

https://www.blm.gov/programs/ 

recreation/permits-and-fees/businessplans) explains the fee collection 

process and how fees will be used at 

this site. Per FLREA guidelines, the 

Rocky Mountain Resource Advisory 

Council reviewed the proposal in 

November 2023 and voted unanimously 

to support the business plan and fee 

proposal. To meet increasing demand 

for services and maintenance and to 

address increased visitor use and costs 

of operation, the BLM proposes the 

following expanded amenity fees: 

• $20 per night basic campsite fee 

and $40 per night group campsite fee at 

Turtle Rock Campground; 

• $10 per night campsite fee for 

primitive campsites at Shavano, 

Burmac, Browns Grotto, County Road 

304, and Penrose Commons camping 

areas; and 

• $10 per night vehicle fee for 

overnight camping use in overflow 

camping areas with access to nearby 

campground facilities at Burmac, 

County Road 304, Penrose Commons, 

The Bank Campground, and Sand Gulch 

Campground. 

The Royal Gorge Field Office 

Campground Business Plan used a 

market analysis and management 

expense estimates to determine the 

expanded amenity fees at these 

recreation sites. The BLM’s public 

outreach process and analysis of the fee 

program are detailed in the Business 

Plan. These expanded amenity camping 

fees are consistent with other 

established fee sites in the region.

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 Collaborating 

Museums, and additional information 

on the determinations in this notice, 

including the results of consultation, 

can be found in the inventory or related 

records. The National Park Service is 

not responsible for the determinations 

in this notice. 

Abstract of Information Available 

Based on the information available, 19 

funerary objects have been reasonably 

identified as associated with human 

remains described on a previous notice 

submitted by the Collaborating 

Museums. The 19 associated funerary 

objects are bowls with painted 

decoration over white slip. These items 

were excavated from the Cameron Creek 

site in Grant County NM in 1923, 1927, 

and 1928 by multiple institutions in 

partnership including the University of 

Minnesota. While human remains were 

transported to the University of 

Minnesota, funerary items were divided 

among participating institutions, 

including the Santa Fe Museum (now 

the Museum of Indian Arts and Culture/ 

Laboratory of Anthropology). The latter 

museum sold 20 bowls, including those 

listed here, to the Cleveland Museum of 

Art in 1930. The Cameron Creek site is 

identified by archaeologists as a 

Mimbres culture site. 

Cultural Affiliation 

Based on the information available 

and the results of consultation, cultural 

affiliation is clearly identified by the 

information available about the 

associated funerary objects described in 

this notice. 

Determinations 

The Collaborating Museums have 

determined that: 

• The 19 objects described in this 

notice are reasonably believed to have 

been placed intentionally with or near 

individual human remains at the time of 

death or later as part of the death rite 

or ceremony. 

• There is a reasonable connection 

between the associated funerary objects 

described in this notice and the Hopi 

Tribe of Arizona; Mescalero Apache 

Tribe of the Mescalero Reservation, New 

Mexico; Okhay Owingeh, New Mexico; 

Pueblo of Acoma, New Mexico; Pueblo 

of Cochiti, New Mexico; Pueblo of 

Isleta, New Mexico; Pueblo of Jemez, 

New Mexico; Pueblo of Laguna, New 

Mexico; Pueblo of Nambe, New Mexico; 

Pueblo of Picuris, New Mexico; Pueblo

New Mexico; Pueblo of Tesuque, New 

Mexico; Pueblo of Zia, New Mexico; 

Santo Domingo Pueblo; Ysleta del Sur 

Pueblo; and the Zuni Tribe of the Zuni 

Reservation, New Mexico.

associated funerary objects in this notice 

must be sent to the authorized 

representative identified in this notice 

under ADDRESSES. Requests for 

repatriation may be submitted by: 

1. Any one or more of the Indian

Repatriation of the associated 

funerary objects in this notice to a 

requestor may occur on or after March

Consultation 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by the FBI 

professional staff in consultation with 

representatives of the Caddo’s Nation’s 

Tribal Historic Preservation Office. A 

government-to-government tribal 

consultation meeting was held on 

November 8, 2023, in Shawnee, 

Oklahoma. Conversations between the 

ARAS and Caddo Nation continued 

after that period. 

History and Description of the Remains 

The Arkansas Archeological Survey 

(ARAS) received a transfer from the 

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) on 

October 5, 2023, of human remains 

recovered from a seizure in Indiana. 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing, at minimum, one 

individual were removed Little River 

County Arkansas. This individual was 

removed from the Bowman site, a large 

prehistoric Caddo ceremonial center on 

the Red River (Little River County) in 

Southwestern Arkansas. Following 

removal, the human remains (a single 

cranium) were transported to Indiana, 

where they remained as part of a private 

collection of Native American 

antiquities and cultural heritage. In 

April 2014, the human remains were 

seized by the FBI as part of a criminal
