<a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#cebaa1aaaae0a4afa8a8a5ab8eaaa1bae0adafe0a9a1b8"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="10647f74743e7a7176767b7550747f643e73713e777f66">[email protected]</span></a>.

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 California 
Department of Transportation, Oakland, CA. The human remains and 
associated funerary objects were removed from the Suscol Site (CA-NAP-
15/H) in Napa 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 of human remains and 
associated funerary objects published in a Notice of Inventory 
Completion in the Federal Register (65 FR 67756-67757, November 13, 
2000). This correction is being made after officials at CALTRANS 
identified additional culturally affiliated Indian Tribes. Also, the 
name of the culturally affiliated Indian Tribe listed in the previous 
notice is corrected. Transfer of control of the items in this 
correction notice has not occurred.

Correction

    In the Federal Register (65 FR 67757, November 13, 2000), column 2, 
paragraph 1, sentence 3 is corrected by substituting the following 
sentence:

    Officials of the California Department of Transportation have 
determined that, pursuant to 43 CFR 10.2(e), there is a relationship 
of shared group identity which can be reasonably traced between 
these Native American human remains and associated funerary objects 
and the Cachil DeHe Band of Wintun Indians of the Colusa Indian 
Community of the Colusa Rancheria, California; Kletsel Dehe Band of 
Wintun Indians (previously listed as Cortina Indian Rancheria); and 
the Yocha Dehe Wintun Nation, California (previously listed as 
Rumsey Indian Rancheria of Wintun Indians of California) (hereafter 
referred to as The Tribes).

Additional Requestors and Disposition

    Lineal descendants or representatives of any Indian Tribe or Native 
Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to 
request transfer of control of these human remains and associated 
funerary objects should submit a written request with information in 
support of the request to Todd Jaffke, Senior Environmental Planner, 
California Department of Transportation, P.O. Box 94623 (M.S.8), 
Oakland, CA 94623-0660, telephone (510) 960-5025, email

additional requestors have come forward, transfer of control of the 
human remains and associated funerary objects to The Tribes may 
proceed.
    The California Department of Transportation is responsible for 
notifying The Tribes that this notice has been published.
