Notice of Inventory Completion for

Native American Human Remains and

Associated Funerary Objects in the

Control of the Wyoming State Office,

Bureau of Land Management,

Cheyenne, WY

AGENCY: National Park Service

ACTION: Notice

Notice is hereby given in accordance

with provisions of the Native American

Graves Protection and Repatriation Act

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

completion of an inventory of human

remains and associated funerary objects

in the control of the Wyoming State

Office, Bureau of Land Management,

Cheyenne, WY.

A detailed assessment of the human

remains was made by Bureau of Land

Management professional staff in

consultation with representatives of the

Eastern Shoshone and Northern

Arapaho Tribes of the Wind River

Indian Reservation, WY; the ShoshoneBannock Tribes, ID; the Uintah and

Ouray Tribes of the Uintah & Ouray

Agency, UT; the Northern Cheyenne

Tribe, MT; and the Crow Tribe, MT.

In 1983, human remains representing

one individual were illegally removed

from federal lands by two oil field

workers and were recovered during a

Federal criminal investigation and

returned to the control of the Bureau of

Land Management. The 502 associated

funerary objects include a saddle,

leather horse tack, German silver bridle

ornaments, .45/70 rifle cartridges, a .22

caliber revolver, a metal knife, one pair

beaded moccasins, brass U.S. military

General Service buttons, silver conchas,

a silver bracelet, a silver belt buckle, a

choker of blue glass beads and elk teeth,

vials of glass beads, and fragments of

fabric and leather. No known individual

was identified.

In 1985, this individual was

reinterred by the Bureau of Land

Management in consultation with

Eastern Shoshone traditional religious

practitioners. During recent inventory of

the associated funerary objects,

additional human remains including

two braids of human hair wrapped in

cloth were discovered from this same

individual. Based on the associated

funerary objects and the condition of the

remains, the burial is estimated to date

to the late 1870s—early 1880s. The

‘‘checker-diagonal’’ beaded design on

the moccasins is most commonly used

among the Eastern Shoshone or the

Blackfeet. Further, osteological analysis

of the human remains, the burial

location, manner of interment, and

associated funerary objects all indicate

this individual was likely Eastern

Shoshone.

Based on the above mentioned

information, officials of the Bureau of

Land Management have determined

that, pursuant to 43 CFR 10.2 (d)(1), the

human remains listed above represent

the physical remains of one individual

of Native American ancestry. Officials of

the Bureau of Land Management have

also determined that, pursuant to 25

U.S.C. 3001 (3)(A), the 502 objects listed

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. Lastly, officials of the Bureau

of Land Management have determined

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

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 Eastern Shoshone Tribe of the

Wind River Indian Reservation, WY.

This notice has been sent to officials

of the Eastern Shoshone and Northern

Arapaho Tribes of the Wind River

Indian Reservation, WY; the ShoshoneBannock Tribes, ID; the Uintah and

Ouray Tribes of the Uintah & Ouray

Agency, UT; the Northern Cheyenne

Tribe, MT; and the Crow Tribe, MT.

Representatives of any other Indian tribe

that believes itself to be culturally

affiliated with these human remains and

associated funerary objects should

contact Al Pierson, State Director, or

Tim Nowak, Native American

Coordinator, Bureau of Land

Management, Wyoming State Office,

5353 Yellowstone Road, Cheyenne, WY

82009; telephone: (307) 775–6035,

before May 30, 1996. Repatriation of the

human remains and associated funerary

objects to the Eastern Shoshone Tribe of

the Wind River Indian Reservation may

begin after that date if no additional

claimants come forward.

a tabulation is provided of all proposed

contractual actions in each of the five

Reclamation regions. Each proposed

action is, or is expected to be, in some

stage of the contract negotiation process

completed, and prior to execution, each

proposed contract form must be

approved by the Secretary of the Interior

or, pursuant to delegated or redelegated

authority, the Commissioner of

Reclamation or one of the regional

directors. In some instances,

congressional review and approval of a

report, water rate, or other terms and

conditions of the contract may be

involved.

Public participation in and receipt of

comments on contract proposals will be

facilitated by adherence to the following

procedures:

1. Only persons authorized to act on

behalf of the contracting entities may

negotiate the terms and conditions of a

specific contract proposal.

2. Advance notice of meetings or

hearings will be furnished to those

parties that have made a timely written

request for such notice to the

testimony presented at any public

hearings will be reviewed and

summarized by the appropriate regional

office for use by the contract approving

authority.

6. Copies of specific proposed

contracts may be obtained from the

appropriate regional director or his

designated public contact as they

become available for review and

comment.

7. In the event modifications are made

in the form of a proposed contract, the

appropriate regional director shall

determine whether republication of the

notice and/or extension of the comment

period is necessary.

Factors considered in making such a

determination shall include, but are not

limited to: (i) The significance of the

modification, and (ii) the degree of

public interest which has been

expressed over the course of the

negotiations. As a minimum, the

regional director shall furnish revised

contracts to all parties who request the

contract in response to the initial public

notice.
