provide the public and other Federal 

agencies with an opportunity to 

comment on new, proposed, revised, 

and continuing collections of 

information. This helps us assess the 

impact of our information collection 

requirements and minimize the public’s 

reporting burden. It also helps the 

public understand our information 

collection requirements and provide the 

requested data in the desired format. 

A FederalRegister notice with a 60- 

day public comment period soliciting 

comments on this collection of 

information was published on August 

27, 2021 (86 FR 48244). No comments 

were received. 

As part of our continuing effort to 

reduce paperwork and respondent 

burdens, we are again soliciting 

comments from the public and other 

Federal agencies on the proposed ICR 

that is described below. We are 

especially interested in public comment 

addressing the following: 

(1) Whether or not the collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether or not the 

information will have practical utility; 

(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the 

burden for this collection of 

information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; and 

(4) How might the agency minimize 

the burden of the collection of

Abstract: The National Park Service 

(NPS) Social Science Program is 

authorized by the National Park Service 

Protection, Interpretation, and Research 

in System (54 U.S.C. 100701) to collect 

information that will improve the ability 

of the NPS to provide effective 

management, protection, and 

interpretation across the NPS. However, 

data is needed to generalize findings 

across all national park units in the 

System concerning visitor experiences, 

attitudes, and spending behaviors. 

Current data does not allow for 

comparison across units or against a 

regional and nationwide benchmark of 

information. The proposed collection 

will provide generalizable results for 

NPS managers and planners across the 

System to understand and monitor 

visitor demographics, economic 

contribution, services, facilities, and 

infrastructure investments. Park units 

will be able to compare their unit data 

with regional and national-level data to 

make informed decisions in future 

planning and management efforts. 

A 30-day FRN (88 FR 44831) was 

previously published on July 13, 2023. 

This 30-day FRN is being published as 

a result of discussions with the Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs in 

the Office of Management and Budget 

about (1) the overall intent of the 

collections (2) methodology and 

statistical sampling, and (3) the length 

of survey instruments. The following 

updates have been made to the 

collection: (1) reductions to the overall 

number of questions (2) added methods 

for increasing response rates, and (3) 

slight adjustments to the wording of 

questions for clarity. 

Title of Collection: Socioeconomic 

Monitoring Study of National Park 

Service Visitors. 

OMB Control Number: 1024–NEW. 

Form Number: None. 

Type of Review: New. 

Respondents/Affected Public: General 

Public; any visitor to national parks

6002 Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 11 / Friday, January 17, 2025 / Notices 

Abstract of Information Available 

Based on the information available, 

human remains representing, at least, 

eight individuals have been reasonably 

identified. The, at least, 10 associated 

funerary objects are one pocketknife, 

one .22 caliber bullet, one brooch, and 

seven lots of coffin hardware and coffin 

fill. In the 1840s, The Chickasaw Nation 

citizens founded the community of 

Willis along the Red River in what 

became Marshall County, Oklahoma. A 

city cemetery was established that was 

estimated to hold 500 graves, many of 

which were unmarked. Between 

December 1942 and March 1943, 

USACE Tulsa contracted a company to 

relocate Willis Cemetery prior to the 

inundation of Lake Texoma. Due to the 

age of the cemetery at the time and the 

loss of original grave markers, several 

internments were missed during the 

relocation effort. Over time, multiple 

inadvertent discoveries of human 

remains have occurred eroding from the 

shoreline of Lake Texoma from the 

original Willis Cemetery location. Site 

34MA86, previously recorded as a 

precontact artifact scatter, was updated 

to a multicomponent site to include the 

Willis Cemetery. The remains of at least 

eight individuals with funerary objects 

have been recovered over time. In 

February 1998 two adults and one child 

were recovered with three lots of coffin 

hardware with the assistance of a 

representative from Chickasaw Nation. 

In 2001 the remains of one child and 

one young adult male with funerary 

objects including two lots of coffin 

hardware and fill, one pocket knife, and 

one .22 caliber bullet were recovered. In 

2008 the remains of one young adult 

female with no associated funerary 

objects were recovered by law 

enforcement, determined to be not of 

forensic interest, and remitted to the 

Oklahoma Archaeological Survey 

(OAS). In August 2016 OAS was 

informed of an inadvertent discovery, 

and in conjunction with USACE Tulsa 

exhumed two individuals and funerary 

objects including two lots of coffin 

hardware and fill, and one brooch. 

Currently all eight individuals and all 

funerary objects are located at the Tulsa 

District Archaeological Repository. 

Determinations 

The USACE Tulsa has determined 

that: 

• The human remains described in 

this notice represent the physical 

remains of eight individuals of Native 

American ancestry. 

• The at least 10 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. 

• The Chickasaw Nation has priority 

for disposition of the human remains 

and associated funerary objects 

described in this notice. 

Claims for Disposition 

Written claims for disposition of the 

human remains and associated funerary 

objects in this notice must be sent to the 

appropriate official identified in this 

notice under ADDRESSES. If no claim for 

disposition is received by January 20, 

2026, the human remains and associated 

funerary objects in this notice will 

become unclaimed human remains and 

associated funerary objects. Claims for 

disposition may be submitted by: 

1. Any lineal descendant, Indian 

Tribe, or Native Hawaiian organization 

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 

they have priority for disposition. 

Disposition of the human remains and 

associated funerary objects in this notice 

may occur on or after February 18, 2025. 

If competing claims for disposition are 

received, the USACE Tulsa must 

determine the most appropriate 

claimant prior to disposition. Requests 

for joint disposition of the human 

remains and associated funerary objects 

are considered a single request and not 

competing requests. The USACE Tulsa 

is responsible for sending a copy of this 

notice to the lineal descendants, Indian 

Tribes, and Native Hawaiian 

organizations identified in this notice 

and to any other consulting parties.

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 USFWS, and 

additional information on the

National Park Service is not responsible 

for the determinations in this notice. 

Abstract of Information Available 

Based on the available information, 

human remains representing, at least, 

two individuals have been reasonably 

identified. The seven associated 

funerary objects include ground stone 

gorgets, a lithic flake, worked antler, a 

pipe stem, faunal remains, and a 

ceramic fragment. The individuals and 

associated funerary objects were 

donated to the USFWS by the Owens 

Family between 1992 and 2000. The 

individuals and associated funerary 

objects were likely collected as early as 

1962 at the Iroquois National Wildlife 

Refuge, most likely near Feeder Road 

and Suttons Marsh. In addition, a friend 

of the Owens Family noted that a 

portion of the materials may have also 

been collected from the Tonawanda 

Wildlife Management Area, which 

included one site that was transferred to 

the Tonawanda Indian Reservation. No 

additional provenience information is 

known. 

Cultural Affiliation 

Based on the information available 

and the results of consultation, cultural 

affiliation is reasonably identified by the
