SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is here given in accordance with the 
Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 
U.S.C. 3003, of the correction of an inventory of human remains and 
associated funerary objects under the control of the Museum of Us, San 
Diego, CA. The human remains and associated funerary objects were 
removed from San Diego, San Diego County, CA.
    This notice is published as part of the National Park Service's 
administrative responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25 U.S.C. 3003(d)(3). The 
determinations in this notice are the sole responsibility of the 
museum, institution, or Federal agency that has control of the Native 
American human remains and associated funerary objects. The National 
Park Service is not responsible for the determinations in this notice.
    This notice corrects the cultural affiliation published in a Notice 
of Inventory Completion in the Federal Register (83 FR 39124-39126,

Reservation, California) are culturally affiliated with these human 
remains and associated funerary objects. Transfer of control of the 
items in this correction notice has not occurred.
