allowed by law, adhere to the following
principles:
—Human remains and grave goods should
not be disinterred unless required in
advance of some kind of disturbance, such
as construction;
—Disinterment when necessary should be
done carefully, respectfully, and
completely, in accordance with proper
archaeological methods;
—In general, human remains and grave goods
should be reburied, in consultation with
the descendants of the dead.
—Prior to reburial, scientific studies should
be performed as necessary to address
justified research topics;
—Scientific studies and reburial should
occur according to a definite, agreed-upon
schedule; and,
—Where scientific study is offensive to the
descendants of the dead, and the need for
such study does not outweigh the need to
respect the concerns of such descendants,
reburial should occur without prior study.
Conversely, where the scientific research
value of human remains or grave goods
outweighs any objections that descendants
may have to their study, they should not
be reburied, but should be retained in
perpetuity for study.

Title: Social Dimensions of Fuel
Reduction Treatment in the Southern
Appalachian Region.
OMB Control Number: 0596–NEW.
Summary of Collection: The Forest
and Rangeland Renewable Resources
Research Act of 1978, as amended,
authorizes the Forest Service (FS) to
collect information to help identify the
range of knowledge, attitudes and
values interested publics hold toward
fuel-load reduction and resulting
aesthetic and ecological changes. Fuel
loads in the forest of the Southern
Appalachian Mountain pose significant
risk of wildfire. Among forest ecologists
there is a growing awareness that there
may be some value to conducting
prescribed fires and mechanical
thinning to reduce the concentration of
shrubs and under-story trees in some
parts of the Southern Appalachian
Mountains. These treatments,
particularly if they were to be
implemented over large areas, would
change the visual and ecological
character of the Southern Appalachian
Mountains. FS will collect information
using the Internet and a mail-back
questionnaire.
Need and Use of the Information: FS
will collect information describing
respondents’ perceptions of the
aesthetic (visual), economic and
ecological results of prescribed fire and
mechanical thinning. The collected
information will provide profiles of
different groups or clusters of people
and how each group perceives the
economic, aesthetic and ecological
results of forest management action.
Without the information programs will
be less efficient and accurate and
unneeded conflicts and

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
action has been reviewed and
determined not to be a rule or regulation
as defined in Executive Order 12866
and Departmental Regulation 1512–1;
therefore, the Executive Order and
Departmental Regulation do not apply
to this action.
In the March 1, 2005 Federal Register
(70 FR 9911), GIPSA asked persons
interested in providing official services
in the geographic areas assigned to the
official agencies named above to submit
an application for designation.
Applications were due by April 1, 2005.
Aberdeen, Decatur, Hastings, McCrea,
Missouri, and South Carolina, were the
sole applicants for designation to
provide official services in the entire
area currently assigned to them, so
GIPSA did not ask for additional
comments on them.
There were two applicants for the
Wisconsin area: Wisconsin Department
of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer
Protection (Wisconsin) and Eastern
Iowa. Wisconsin applied for designation
to provide official services in the entire
state of Wisconsin which was currently
assigned to them. Eastern Iowa also
applied for designation in all or part of
the area currently assigned to
Wisconsin.
GIPSA asked for comments on the
applicants for providing service in the
Wisconsin area in the June 1, 2005,
Federal Register (70 FR 31417).
Comments were due by July 1, 2005.
GIPSA received one favorable comment
supporting Eastern Iowa from a
customer in Wisconsin. Wisconsin
