Tribe, Minnesota, indicate that the two 

cultural objects are Ojibwe, are from the 

Nett Lake Reservation, MN, and are 

sacred objects and objects of cultural 

patrimony. On April 18, 2017, Science 

Museum of Minnesota officials met with 

members of the Bois Forte Band. Elders, 

spiritual advisors, and five drumkeepers from the Bois Forte Band were 

present at the meeting, and each in turn 

explained the spiritual and sacred 

importance of drums both to the Ojibwe 

in general, and to the Bois Forte Band 

in particular. According to the group, 

drums are treated as living beings, and 

are cared for by a drum-keeper as long 

as that drum-keeper is able. If a drumkeeper can no longer care for a drum, it 

is passed on to another drum-keeper. 

Supernatural beings bestow the honor 

and duty of caring for a drum through 

dreams and visions. Ceremonial songs 

and dances associated with drums are 

similarly revealed. According to the 

informants’ testimonies, the investiture 

and traditional religious practices of 

drum-keepers, and the drums used in 

such practices are central to Ojibwe 

religion and the Bois Forte Band. Drums 

made by this community belong to the 

community, and are not the property of 

drum-keepers or any other custodian. 

According to the elders, spiritual 

advisors, and drum-keepers present 

during consultation, the drum and 

drumstick should never have been sold, 

and should be returned. 

Determinations Made by the Science 

Museum of Minnesota 

Officials of the Science Museum of 

Minnesota have determined that: 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(C), 

the two cultural items described above 

are specific ceremonial objects needed 

by traditional Native American religious 

leaders for the practice of traditional 

Native American religions by their 

present-day adherents. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(D), 

the two cultural items described above 

have ongoing historical, traditional, or 

cultural importance central to the 

Native American group or culture itself, 

rather than property owned by an 

individual. 

• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), there 

is a relationship of shared group 

identity that can be reasonably traced 

between the sacred objects and objects 

of cultural patrimony and the Bois Forte 

Band (Nett Lake) of the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota. 

Additional Requestors and Disposition 

Lineal descendants or representatives 

of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 

organization not identified in this notice 

that wish to claim these cultural items 

should submit a written request with 

information in support of the claim to 

Edward Fleming, Science Museum of 

Minnesota, 120 West Kellogg Boulevard, 

St. Paul, MN 55102, telephone (651) 

221–4576, email efleming@smm.org, by 

September 29, 2017. After that date, if 

no additional claimants have come 

forward, transfer of control of the sacred 

objects and objects of cultural 

patrimony to the Bois Forte Band (Nett 

Lake) of the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe, 

Minnesota, may proceed. 

The Science Museum of Minnesota is 

responsible for notifying the Bois Forte 

Band (Nett Lake) of the Minnesota 

Chippewa Tribe, Minnesota, that this 

notice has been published.

is publishing this notice in order to 

allow the public an opportunity to 

review the Plans and comment on the 

preliminary determinations.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: To meet 

the requirements of the Central Valley 

Project Improvement Act of 1992 and 

the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982, the 

Bureau of Reclamation developed and 

published the Criteria for Evaluating 

Water Management Plans (Criteria) in 

the Federal Register on March 25, 2011 

(76 FR 16818). 

Each of the eight entities listed below 

has developed a Plan that has been 

evaluated and preliminarily determined 

to meet the requirements of these 

Criteria. The following Plans are 

available for review: 

• City of Avenal 

• Banta Carbona Irrigation District 

• Chowchilla Water District 

• Delano Earlimart Irrigation District 

• City of Fernley 

• Goleta Water District 

• City of Shasta Lake 

• Tranquility Irrigation District 

We are inviting the public to 

comment on our preliminary (i.e., draft) 

determination of Plan adequacy. Section 

3405(e) of the Central Valley Project 

Improvement Act (Title 34 Public Law 

102–575), requires the Secretary of the 

Interior to establish and administer an 

office on Central Valley Project water 

conservation best management practices 

that shall ‘‘develop criteria for 

evaluating the adequacy of all water 

conservation plans developed by project 

contractors, including those plans 

required by Section 210 of the 

Reclamation Reform Act of 1982.’’ Also, 

according to Section 3405(e)(1), these 

criteria must be developed ‘‘with the 

purpose of promoting the highest level 

of water use efficiency reasonably 

achievable by project contractors using 

best available cost-effective technology 

and best management practices.’’ These 

criteria state that all parties 

(Contractors) that contract with 

Reclamation for water supplies 

(municipal and industrial contracts over 

2,000 acre-feet and agricultural 

contracts over 2,000 irrigable acres) 

must prepare a Plan that contains the 

following information: 

1. Description of the District; 

2. Inventory of Water Resources; 

3. Best Management Practices (BMPs) 

for Agricultural Contractors; 

4. BMPs for Urban Contractors; 

5. Plan Implementation; 

6. Exemption Process; 

7. Regional Criteria; and 

8. Five-Year Revisions. 

Reclamation evaluates Plans based on 

these criteria. A copy of these Plans will 

be available for review at Reclamation’s 

Mid-Pacific Regional Office, 2800 

Cottage Way, MP–400, Sacramento, CA 

95825. Our practice is to make 

comments, including names and home 

addresses of respondents, available for 

public review. If you wish to review a 

copy of these Plans, please contact Ms. 

Stemen.
