Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 206 / Wednesday, October 26, 2005 / Notices 61839 

museum records state that Dr. Hill was 

known to have collected human remains 

and cultural items from burials and 

mounds. Based on consultation and 

museum records, the Horner Collection, 

Oregon State University finds that the 

intent was to maintain the spiritual 

connection between owner and object 

through the burial of this cultural item 

with its owner and has therefore 

identified the cultural item as an 

unassociated funerary object. 

At an unknown date, one trinket 

basket and one wallet basket were 

removed from an unknown location by 

Mr. W.C. Dyer. In 1934, Mrs. S.C. Dyer, 

the wife of Mr. Dyer, donated the trinket 

basket and wallet basket to the museum. 

The Horner Collection, Oregon State 

University has no evidence the trinket 

and wallet baskts were ever buried with 

any individual. However, museum 

records state that Mr. Dyer was known 

to have collected human remains and 

cultural items from burials and mounds. 

Based on consultation and museum 

records, the Horner Collection, Oregon 

State University has identified the 

cultural items as unassociated funerary 

objects. 

According to museum records, both 

the trinket and wallet baskets are 

Clatsop in origin. Any direct Clatsop 

descendant who meets the Confederated 

Tribes of the Siletz Reservation, Oregon 

enrollment criteria is eligible for 

membership in the Confederated Tribes 

of the Siletz Reservation, Oregon. The 

Clatsop are ancestors of the present-day 

Chinook Tribe. The Chinook Tribe has 

cultural and political ties to the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon. The Chinook Tribe 

is a confederated member of the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon. 

Officials of the Horner Collection, 

Oregon State University have 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 

3001 (3)(B), the five cultural items 

described above are reasonably believed 

to have been placed with or near 

individual human remains at the time of 

death or later as part of the death rite 

or ceremony and are believed, by a 

preponderance of the evidence, to have 

been removed from specific burial sites 

of Native American individuals. 

Officials of the Horner Collection, 

Oregon State University also have 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 

3001 (2), there is a relationship of 

shared group identity that can be 

reasonably traced between the five 

unassociated funerary objects and the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the unassociated funerary 

objects should contact Sabah Randhawa, 

Executive Vice President and Provost, 

President’s Office, Oregon State 

University, 600 Kerr Administration 

Building, Corvallis, OR 97331, 

telephone (541) 737–8260, before 

November 25, 2005. Repatriation of the 

unassociated funerary objects to the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon may proceed after 

that date if no additional claimants 

come forward. 

Horner Collection, Oregon State 

University is responsible for notifying 

the Confederated Tribes of the Grand 

Ronde Community of Oregon; 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon; Karuk Tribe of 

California; Quinault Tribe of the 

Quinault Reservation, Washington; and

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR 

National Park Service 

Notice of Inventory Completion: 

Horner Collection, Oregon State 

University, Corvallis, OR 

AGENCY: National Park Service, Interior. 

ACTION: Notice. 

Notice is here given in accordance 

with the Native American Graves 

Protection and Repatriation Act 

(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003, of the 

completion of an inventory of human 

remains in the possession of the Horner 

Collection, Oregon State University, 

Corvallis, OR. The human remains were 

removed from Curry and Lincoln 

Counties, OR. 

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. The National 

Park Service is not responsible for the 

determinations in this notice. 

A detailed assessment of the human 

remains was made by Horner Collection, 

Oregon State University professional 

staff in consultation with 

representatives of the Confederated 

Tribes of the Siletz Reservation, Oregon 

and the Coquille Tribe of Oregon. 

The Museum of Oregon Country, 

Oregon Agricultural College was 

renamed the John B. Horner Museum of 

the Oregon Country in 1936, and 

became commonly known as the Horner 

Museum. The Oregon Agricultural 

College was renamed the Oregon State 

College in 1937, and became Oregon 

State University in 1962. The Horner 

Museum closed in 1995. Currently, 

cultural items from the Horner Museum 

are referred to as the Horner Collection, 

which is owned by, and in the 

possession of, Oregon State University. 

At an unknown time, human remains 

representing a minimum of one 

individual were removed from an 

unknown site near Yachats in Lincoln 

County, OR. In 1968, the human 

remains were donated by Mrs. P. 

Mitchell to the John B. Horner Museum 

of the Oregon Country. Mrs. Mitchell 

told museum staff that the human 

remains were found near Yachats. It is 

unknown if the human remains were 

removed by Mrs. Mitchell. No known 

individual was identified. No associated 

funerary objects are present. 

The human remains have been 

identified as Native American dating to 

precontact times based on typical tooth 

wear. Historical documents, 

ethnographic sources, and oral history 

indicate that many of the tribes that are 

members of the present-day 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon have occupied 

these areas since precontact times, 

including the Alsea/Siuslaw tribe. The 

Alsea/Siuslaw tribe represents the 

Alsea, Lower Umpqua, Siuslaw, 

Yachats, and Yaquina Native American 

groups. The Alsea/Siuslaw tribe was a 

signatory to the Oregon Coast Treaty of 

1855. In 1857, the Alsea/Siuslaw were 

located on the Siuslaw River, Lane 

County, OR, and their traditional 

territory extended south to Heceta Head, 

Lane County, OR (Harris 1858). Yachats 

is near the border of Lane and Lincoln 

Counties, OR. The Alsea/Siuslaw tribe’s 

traditional territopry includes both 

counties. The Alsea/Siuslaw tribe is one 

of the member tribes of the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon and by 1875, the 

Alsea/Siuslaw tribe was residing on the 

Siletz Reservation. Therefore, the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon have a connection 

to the area nearYachats that includes 

both Lane and Lincoln Counties, OR. 

The Alsea/Siuslaw tribe is a distinct and 

separate tribe, and distinguished from 

the Alcea band of Tillamooks, which 

brought a land claim to the Indian 

Claims Commission in 1955. 

At an unknown date, human remains 

representing a minimum of 16

2The products subject to this investigation 

include certain welded carbon quality steel pipes 

and tubes, of circular cross-section, with an outside 

diameter of 0.372 inches (9.45 mm) or more, but not 

more than 16 inches (406.4 mm), regardless of wall 

thickness, surface finish (black, galvanized, or 

painted), end finish (plain end, beveled end, 

grooved, threaded, or threaded and coupled), or 

industry specification (ASTM, proprietary, or 

other), generally known as standard pipe and 

structural pipe (they may also be referred to as 

structural or mechanical tubing). The term carbon 

quality steel may include certain low alloy steel 

imported as other alloy steel pipes and tubes. 

All pipe meeting the physical description set 

forth above that is used in, or intended for use in, 

standard and structural pipe applications is covered 

by the scope of this investigation. Standard pipe 

applications include the low-pressure conveyance 

of water, steam, natural gas, air and other liquids 

and gases in plumbing and heating systems, air 

conditioning units, automatic sprinkler systems, 

and other related uses. Standard pipe may also be 

used for light load-bearing and mechanical 

applications, such as for fence tubing, and as an 

intermediate product for protection of electrical 

wiring, such as conduit shells. Structural pipe is 

used in construction applications. 

Products not included in this investigation are 

mechanical tubing (whether or not cold-drawn) 

provided for in HTS subheading 7306.30.50, tube 

and pipe hollows for redrawing provided for in 

HTS 7306.30.5035, or finished electrical conduit 

provided for in HTS 7306.30.5028. API line pipe 

used in oil or gas applications requiring API 

certifications is also not included in this 

investigation. Similarly, pipe produced to the API 

specifications for oil country tubular goods use are 

not included in this investigation. 

The subject imported products are currently 

provided for in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of 

the United States (HTS) subheadings 7306.30.10 

and 7306.30.50. Specifically, the various HTS 

statistical reporting numbers under which the 

subject standard pipe has been provided for since 

January 1, 1992, are as follows: 7306.30.1000, 

7306.30.5025, 7306.30.5032, 7306.30.5040, 

7306.30.5055, 7306.30.5085, and 7306.30.5090. 

Although the HTS category is provided for 

convenience and Customs purposes, the written 

description of the merchandise under investigation 

is dispositive. 

Pipe multiple-stenciled to the ASTM A–53 

specification and to any other specification, such as 

the API–fL or 5L X–42 specifications, or singlecertified pipe that enters under HTS subheading 

7306.10.10, is covered by this investigation when 

used in, or intended for use in, one of the standard 

pipe applications listed above, regardless of the 

HTS category in which it is entered. Pipe shells that 

enter the United States under HTS subheading 

7306.30.50, including HTS statistical reporting 

number 7306.30.5028, are also covered by this 

investigation. The investigation also covers pipe 

used for the production of scaffolding (but does not 

include finished scaffolding). 

3 Vice Chairman Deanna Tanner Okun and 

Commissioner Daniel R. Pearson make a negative 

determination. 

individuals were removed from an 

unknown site near Pistol River, Curry 

County, OR. In 1970, Mrs. Dorothy 

Timeus donated the human remains to 

the museum. According to Mrs. Timeus, 

the human remains are Native American 

and were found in the sand dunes near 

the Pistol River. It is unknown if the 

human remains were removed by Mrs. 

Timeus. No known individuals were 

identified. No associated funerary 

objects are present. 

A letter written by Mr. Harmon 

Timeus, Mrs. Timeus’ son, states, ‘‘I 

have checked with several authorities 

concerning the Indian skulls and 

relics...they are all from the To-To-Tin 

tribe. There were many smaller groups 

of this tribe. The Chetl-essen-tans is the 

specific group which inhabited the land 

where the relics were found.’’ The 

authorities cited in the letter are 

unknown. The tribe mentioned in the 

letter is most likely the Chet-less-ing-ton 

Band of Too-too-to-ney tribe, who were 

located at the eddy of Pistol River in the 

1800s. The Chet-less-ing-ton were 

signatories to the Oregon Coast Treaty of 

1855 and by 1857 the Chet-less-ing-ton 

were residing on the reservation of the 

Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon (Harris, 1858). The 

Chet-less-ing-ton are a subgroup of the 

Athabaskan/Tututni, which is one of the 

member tribes of the Confederated 

Tribes of the Siletz Reservation, Oregon. 

Officials of the Horner Collection, 

Oregon State University have 

determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 

3001 (9–10), the human remains 

described above represent the physical 

remains of 17 individuals of Native 

American ancestry. Officials of the 

Horner Collection, Oregon State 

Unversity also have determined that, 

pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (2), there is 

a relationship of shared group identity 

that can be reasonably traced between 

the Native American human remains 

and the Confederated Tribes of the 

Siletz Reservation, Oregon. 

Representatives of any other Indian 

tribe that believes itself to be culturally 

affiliated with the human remains 

should contact Sabah Randhawa 

Executive Vice President and Provost, 

President’s Office, Oregon State 

University, 600 Kerr Administration 

Building, Corvallis, OR 97331, 

telephone (541) 737–8260, before 

November 25, 2005. Repatriation of the 

human remains to the Confederated 

Tribes of the Siletz Reservation, Oregon 

may proceed after that date if no 

additional claimants come forward. 

Horner Collection, Oregon State

the Confederated Tribes of the Siletz 

Reservation, Oregon and Coquille Tribe 

of Oregon that this notice has been 

published.
