Abstract of Information Available 

Human remains representing, at least, 

one individual has been identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

In 1951, human remains were removed 

from Old Man House (45–KP–2 in 

Kitsap County WA, at Old Man House 

State Park, by Warren Snyder, as part of 

a University of Washington Field 

Expedition. No known individuals were 

identified. The human remains were 

transferred to the Burke Museum where 

they were later accessioned (Burke 

Accn. 1966–81). No known individuals 

were identified. Sometime in the early 

1990s, these human remains were 

transferred to the Confederated Tribes of 

the Colville Reservation, then 

subsequently transferred in 1992 to 

Eastern Washington University for 

identification. In 2004, Washington 

State Parks and Recreation Commission 

returned ownership of the land and 

collections from the 1951 excavation to 

the Suquamish Indian Tribe of the Port 

Madison Reservation, WA. 

Human remains representing, at least, 

one individual has been identified. No 

associated funerary objects are present. 

In 1949, human remains representing a 

minimum of one individual were 

removed from Bainbridge Island, Kitsap 

County, WA, by Carroll Burroughs and 

Douglas Osborne, part of a University of 

Washington field expedition. No known 

individuals were identified. The human 

remains were transferred to the Burke 

Museum where they were accessioned 

in 1950 (Burke Accn. 3608). No known 

individuals were identified. Sometime 

in the early 1990s, these human remains 

were transferred to the Confederated 

Tribes of the Colville Reservation, then 

subsequently transferred in 1992 to 

Eastern Washington University for 

identification.

1According to Agency records, Registrant’s 

registration expired on April 30, 2024. The fact that 

a registrant allows his registration to expire during 

the pendency of an OSC does not impact the 

Agency’s jurisdiction or prerogative under the 

Controlled Substances Act (CSA) to adjudicate the 

OSC to finality. Jeffrey D. Olsen, M.D., 84 FR 

68,474, 68,476–68,479 (2019). 

2Based on the Government’s submissions in its 

RFAA dated December 5, 2023, the Agency finds 

that service of the OSC on Registrant was adequate. 

Specifically, the RFAA indicates that on October 

16, 2023, Registrant was personally served with the 

OSC by a DEA Diversion Investigator. RFAA, at 1; 

RFAAX 2. 

3The Agency need not adjudicate the criminal 

violations alleged in the instant OSC. Ruan v. 

United States, 142 S. Ct. 2,370 (2022) (decided in 

the context of criminal proceedings). 

affiliation is reasonably identified by the 

geographical location or acquisition 

history of the human remains described 

in this notice. 

Determinations 

The Eastern Washington University 

has determined that: 

• The human remains described in 

this notice represent the physical 

remains of two individuals of Native 

American ancestry. 

• There is a connection between the 

human remains described in this notice 

and the Suquamish Indian Tribe of the 

Port Madison Reservation. 

Requests for Repatriation 

Written requests for repatriation of the 

human remains 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 

Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations 

identified in this notice. 

2. 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 

an Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization with cultural affiliation. 

Repatriation of the human remains 

described in this notice to a requestor 

may occur on or after November 22, 

2024. If competing requests for 

repatriation are received, the Eastern 

Washington University must determine 

the most appropriate requestor prior to 

repatriation. Requests for joint 

repatriation of the human remains are 

considered a single request and not 

competing requests. The Eastern 

Washington University is responsible 

for sending a copy of this notice to the 

Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian 

organizations identified in this notice.

BILLING CODE 4312–52–P 

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE 

Drug Enforcement Administration 

David Carlos Rodriguez, M.D.; 

Decision and Order 

On September 11, 2023, the Drug 

Enforcement Administration (DEA or 

Government) issued an Order to Show 

Cause (OSC) to David Carlos Rodriguez, 

M.D. (Registrant), of Lake City, South 

Carolina. Request for Final Agency 

Action (RFAA), Exhibit (RFAAX) 1, at 1, 

7. The OSC proposed the revocation of 

Registrant’s DEA Certificate of 

Registration (registration) No. 

BR6910803, alleging that Registrant has 

committed such acts as would render 

his registration inconsistent with the 

public interest. Id. at 3 (citing 21 U.S.C. 

823(g)(1), 824(a)(4)).1

The OSC notified Registrant of his 

right to file with DEA a written request 

for hearing, and that if he failed to file 

such a request, he would be deemed to 

have waived his right to a hearing and 

be in default. Id. at 5–6 (citing 21 CFR 

1301.43). Here, Registrant did not 

request a hearing. RFAA, at 2.2 ‘‘A 

default, unless excused, shall be 

deemed to constitute a waiver of the 

registrant’s/applicant’s right to a hearing 

and an admission of the factual 

allegations of the [OSC].’’ 21 CFR 

1301.43(e). 

Further, ‘‘[i]n the event that a 

registrant . . . is deemed to be in 

default . . . DEA may then file a request 

for final agency action with the 

Administrator, along with a record to 

support its request. In such 

circumstances, the Administrator may 

enter a default final order pursuant to 

[21 CFR] § 1316.67.’’ Id. § 1301.43(f)(1). 

Here, the Government has requested 

final agency action based on Registrant’s 

default pursuant to 21 CFR 1301.43(c), 

(f), 1301.46. RFAA, at 1; see also 21 CFR 

1316.67. 

I. Findings of Fact 

The Agency finds that, in light of 

Registrant’s default, the factual 

allegations in the OSC are admitted.3

Registrant is deemed to have admitted 

and the Agency finds that from at least 

January 2018 through at least January 

2019, Registrant issued multiple 

controlled substance prescriptions to 

five patients that lacked a legitimate 

medical purpose and were issued 

outside the usual course of professional 

practice. RFAAX 1, at 3, 5. 

A. Prescribing to C.R. 

Registrant is deemed to have admitted 

that between May 2018 and December 

2018, on approximately a monthly basis, 

Registrant issued prescriptions for 

various quantities of oxycodone 30 mg 

(a Schedule II opioid) to C.R. RFAAX 1, 

at 3. Registrant issued these controlled 

substance prescriptions without 

conducting an appropriate evaluation, 

without making a proper diagnosis, 

without providing a therapeutic plan, 

and without discussing the risks, 

benefits, and treatment options with the 

patient. Id. Further, during several of 

C.R.’s visits to Registrant’s office, 

Registrant engaged in sexual conduct 

with C.R. prior to issuing C.R. the 

prescriptions. Id. 

B. Prescribing to K.D. 

Registrant is deemed to have admitted 

that between January 2018 and 

December 2018, on an approximately 

monthly basis, Registrant issued 

prescriptions for various quantities of 

alprazolam 2 mg (a Schedule IV 

benzodiazepine), zolpidem tartrate 10 

mg (a Schedule IV sedative), and 

dextroamphetamine-amphetamine 20 

mg (a Schedule II stimulant) to K.D. Id. 

at 4. Registrant issued these controlled 

substance prescriptions without 

conducting an appropriate evaluation, 

without making a proper diagnosis, 

without providing a therapeutic plan, 

and without discussing the risks, 

benefits, and treatment options with the 

patient. Id. 

C. Prescribing to R.R. 

Registrant is deemed to have admitted 

that between October 2018 and 

December 2018, on an approximately 

monthly basis, Registrant issued 

prescriptions for various quantities of 

alprazolam 0.5 mg and acetaminophenhydrocodone 325/10 mg (a Schedule II 

opioid) to R.R. Id. Again, Registrant 

issued these controlled substance 

prescriptions without conducting an 

appropriate evaluation, without making 

a proper diagnosis, without providing a 

therapeutic plan, and without 

discussing the risks, benefits, and 

treatment options with the patient. Id. 

On several of these occasions, Registrant 

prescribed opioids with a 

benzodiazepine, which Registrant is 

deemed to have admitted is a drug 

cocktail that is associated with 

diversion, without adequately 

documenting his reasoning for issuing
