SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
Restoring endangered or threatened
animals and plants to the point where
they are again secure, self-sustaining
members of their ecosystems is a
primary goal of our endangered species
program. To help guide the recovery
effort, we are working to prepare
recovery plans for most of the listed
species native to the United States.
Recovery plans describe actions
considered necessary for the
conservation of the species, establish
criteria for the recovery levels for
downlisting or delisting them, and
estimate time and cost for implementing
the recovery measures needed.
Section 4(f) of the Endangered Species
Act (Act) (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)
requires us to provide public notice and
an opportunity for public review and
comment during recovery plan
development. We made the draft
recovery plan for the Carson wandering
skipper available for public comment
from March 2, 2006, through May 31,
2006 (71 FR 10703). We considered
information we received during the
public comment period in our
preparation of this final recovery plan,
and also summarized that information
in an appendix of the recovery plan. We
VerDate Aug<31>2005

will forward substantive comments
regarding recovery plan implementation
to appropriate Federal or other entities
so they can take these comments into
account in the course of implementing
recovery actions.
The Carson wandering skipper
(Pseudocopaeodes eunus obscurus) is a
small butterfly in the subfamily
Hesperiinae (grass skippers). This
subspecies is federally listed as
endangered. Only four extant
populations are known from Washoe
County and Douglas County, Nevada,
and Lassen County, California. A fifth
known population of the subspecies,
from Carson City, Nevada, is considered
extirpated as of 1998.
Our goal for this subspecies is to
recover it to the point where
downlisting and eventually delisting
would be appropriate. Recovery criteria
include protection and management in
perpetuity of the existing populations,
without downward population trends;
development and implementation of
adaptive management plans; and
discovery or establishment of one or
more additional populations.
Authority
The authority for this action is section
4(f) of the Endangered Species Act, 16
U.S.C. 1533(f).
Dated: September 6, 2007.

Notice.

ACTION:
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 Alutiiq
Museum and Archaeological Repository,
Kodiak, AK. The human remains were
removed from unknown locations on
Kodiak Island, AK.
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 Alutiiq Museum
and Archaeological Repository
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of Afognak Native

Corporation; Native Village of Afognak
(formerly the Village of Afognak); Native
Village of Akhiok; Akhiok–Kaguyak,
Inc.; Native Village of Karluk; Natives of
Kodiak, Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Native Village
of Larsen Bay; Lesnoi Village (aka
Woody Island); Old Harbor Native
Corporation; Village of Old Harbor;
Ouzinkie Native Corporation; Native
Village of Ouzinkie; Native Village of
Port Lions; and Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak
(formerly the Shoonaq’ Tribe of Kodiak).
In 1995, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
transferred to the Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository from Kodiak
Area Native Association’s Alutiiq
Culture Center (number AM59).
Information regarding the collection of
the human remains is unknown,
although it is reasonably believed that
the human remains were removed from
Kodiak Island. No known individual
was identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
A review of the human remains
suggests they are archeological. Humic
staining on the bones and worn
dentition with no evidence of modern
dentistry suggests a prehistoric person,
likely from one of Kodiak’s many well
preserved archeological sites.
At an unknown date, human remains
representing a minimum of one
individual were removed from an
unknown location on Kodiak Island,
AK. In 1991, the human remains were
turned over to the Alaska State Troopers
by Dr. Keith Hediger. In 1992, the
Alaska State Office of History and
Archaeology examined the human
remains and determined the human
remains were Native American and
most likely Alutiiq. The Alaska State
Troopers transferred the human remains
to the Kodiak Area Native Association’s
Alutiiq Culture Center. In 1995, the
human remains were transferred to the
Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological
Repository (number AM62). No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
Archeological data indicate that
modern Alutiiqs evolved from
archeologically documented societies of
the Kodiak region and can trace their
ancestry back over 7,500 years in the
region. As such, the human remains are
reasonably believed to be Native
American and most closely affiliated
with the modern Kodiak Alutiiq people.
Specifically, the human remains are
from an area traditionally used by the
Afognak Native Corporation; Native
Village of Afognak; Native Village of
Akhiok; Akhiok–Kaguyak, Inc.; Native
Village of Karluk; Natives of Kodiak,
Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Native Village of
Larsen Bay; Lesnoi Village (aka Woody

Village of Old Harbor; Ouzinkie Native
Corporation; Native Village of Ouzinkie;
Native Village of Port Lions; and Sun’aq
Tribe of Kodiak.
Officials of the Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (9–10), the human remains
described above represent the physical
remains of two individuals of Native
American ancestry. Officials of the
Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological
Repository 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 Afognak Native Corporation;
Native Village of Afognak; Native
Village of Akhiok; Akhiok–Kaguyak,
Inc.; Native Village of Karluk; Natives of
Kodiak, Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Native Village
of Larsen Bay; Lesnoi Village (aka
Woody Island); Old Harbor Native
Corporation; Village of Old Harbor;
Ouzinkie Native Corporation; Native
Village of Ouzinkie; Native Village of
Port Lions; and Sun’aq Tribe of Kodiak.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains
should contact Sven Haakanson, Jr.,
Executive Director, Alutiiq Museum and
Archaeological Repository, 215 Mission
Rd., Suite 101, Kodiak, AK 99615,
telephone (907) 486–7004, before
October 15, 2007. Repatriation of the
human remains to the Afognak Native
Corporation; Native Village of Afognak;
Native Village of Akhiok; Akhiok–
Kaguyak, Inc.; Native Village of Karluk;
Natives of Kodiak, Inc.; Koniag, Inc.;
Native Village of Larsen Bay; Lesnoi
Village (aka Woody Island); Old Harbor
Native Corporation; Village of Old
Harbor; Ouzinkie Native Corporation;
Native Village of Ouzinkie; Native
Village of Port Lions; and Sun’aq Tribe
of Kodiak may proceed after that date if
no additional claimants come forward.
Alutiiq Museum and Archaeological
Repository is responsible for notifying
the Afognak Native Corporation; Native
Village of Afognak; Native Village of
Akhiok; Akhiok–Kaguyak, Inc.; Native
Village of Karluk; Natives of Kodiak,
Inc.; Koniag, Inc.; Native Village of
Larsen Bay; Lesnoi Village (aka Woody

Corporation; Native Village of Ouzinkie;
