Environmental Assessment (NEPA
#CA–190–07–54) on August 29, 2007.
Notification of the proposed action and
analysis has been prominently posted in
the Hollister Field Office public area
and on the Field Office web page during
its undertaking.
The 2007 Hollister Resource
Management Plan designated nonmotorized use on FOPL as ‘‘Limited’’ to
designated (i.e. signed and shown on
trail maps) routes and trails. This
planning decision was preceded by an
Emergency Closure in 1996 regarding
the same on December 5, 1996 (Volume
61, Number 235). Unauthorized off-trail
use has been increasing over the past
years and has risen to a point that up
to 60 existing geocaches are currently
located away from trails on FOPL.
Hundreds of recreationists visit
geocache sites every week. Geocaching
is not only extensively popular in the
United States but occurs across the
world. Geocaching activities on FOPL
have the potential to expose visitors to
dangerous munitions and are creating
new trails that can cause considerable
adverse impacts to soils, vegetation,
wildlife, endangered species, and
authorized uses on the public lands.
During the closure, informational
signs and maps of the emergency
closure will be clearly posted at main
entry points to all locations affected by
this Notice. BLM will contact the
northern California Geocacher Approver
and explain the problems and strategies
and request that they post the following
message on all the existing geocaches
web-pages. Effective immediately the
BLM is currently developing a
geocaching policy governing the Fort
Ord Public Lands that is protective of
the environment and is attentive to
public safety. As such, the BLM has
instituted an immediate prohibition on
the establishment of new geocaches on
the FOPL and is evaluating existing
caches (such as this one) to determine
if there are any immediate issues
concerning public safety and the
protection of sensitive natural and
historic resources. The BLM reminds
geocachers that our current regulations
prohibit off-trail recreation use at Fort
Ord and that public lands are open to
non-motorized trail users only from
dawn to dusk. The current roads and
trails network for non-motorized use
can be seen on the web at Google Earth:
https://www.palmconsulting.net/beta/
GE1D4.kmz. If a person wishing to visit
the area does not have Google Earth or
internet access, maps of the closure area
are available at the Hollister Field
Office. The geocaching policy that BLM
is developing will take into
consideration that these lands were

once a former military base and that
dangerous munitions and explosives
still may reside in public use areas.
Visitors that remain on our designated
trail systems are not in harm’s way from
encountering such items. If anything is
encountered that appears to be a
remnant of former military use of the
lands (especially anything metallic) and
could be a dangerous munition, please
way mark the site location and call the
Presidio of Monterey Policy Department
at 831–242–7851 or Army munitions
expert, Lyle Shurtleff at 831–242–7919.
For additional information, feel free to
contact Eric Morgan, Fort Ord Manager
at 831–394–8314. Thanks for your
attention to these matters.
Penalties: Any person who fails to
comply with the provisions of this
closure order may be subject to the
penalties provided in 43 CFR 8364.1,
which include a fine not to exceed
$1,000 and/or imprisonment not to
exceed 12 months.
Dated: August 30, 2007.

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 and associated funerary objects
in the possession of Fowler Museum of
Cultural History (Fowler Museum at
UCLA), University of California, Los
Angeles, Los Angeles, CA. The human
remains and associated funerary objects
were removed from site 4–LAN–192,
Los Angeles County, CA.
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 and

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 181 / Wednesday, September 19, 2007 / Notices
associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
A detailed assessment of the human
remains was made by Fowler Museum
at UCLA professional staff in
consultation with representatives of
Morongo Band of Cahuilla Mission
Indians of the Morongo Reservation,
California; San Manuel Band of Serrano
Mission Indians of the San Manuel
Reservation, California; Cahuilla Inter–
Tribal Repatriation Committee, a non–
federally recognized Indian group; and
Kitanemuk Indians, a non–federally
recognized Indian group.
In 1968, human remains representing
a minimum of nine individuals were
removed from the Lovejoy Springs site
(4–LAN–192) in Los Angeles County,
CA, by James Toney during a salvage of
a mortuary area being destroyed by
development. The collection was
accessioned by the University of
California, Los Angeles in 1969. No
known individuals were identified. The
3,364 associated funerary objects are 1
projectile point, 1 quartz flake, 4 worked
bird bone fragments, 2,135 olivella
saucer beads, 1,101 olivella spire lopped
beads, and 122 olivella beads.
Lovejoy Springs is located within the
traditional territory of the Serrano. The
artifacts are consistent with others
documented as associated with the
indigenous inhabitants of the area. The
beads and projectile point associated
with the burials date to Middle Period
Phase 2a (circa 50 B.C. – A.D. 400). The
pictograph styles of the area near the
burials suggest an association with
traditional Serrano linguistic groups. It
is reasonably believed by archeologists
that Serrano/Takic speakers have
continuously occupied the San
Bernardino Mountains and the area
north of the San Bernardino Mountains
since at least 1,000 B.C. Tribal
representatives from San Manuel Band
of Serrano Mission Indians of the San
Manuel Reservation, California
identified this site as from within the
traditional territory of the Serrano
people. Descendants of the Serrano are
members of the Agua Caliente Band of
Cahuilla Indians of the Agua Caliente
Indian Reservation, California;
Augustine Band of the Cahuilla Mission
Indians of the Augustine Reservation,
California; Cabazon Band of Mission
Indians, California; Cahuilla Band of
Mission Indians of the Cahuilla
Reservation, California; Los Coyotes
Band of Cahuilla & Cupeno Indians of
the Los Coyotes Reservation, California;
Morongo Band of Cahuilla Mission
Indians of the Morongo Reservation,
California; Ramona Band or Village of
Cahuilla Mission Indians of California;

Officials of the Fowler Museum at
UCLA have determined that, pursuant
to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the human
remains described above represent the
physical remains of nine individuals of
Native American ancestry. Officials of
the Fowler Museum at UCLA also have
determined that, pursuant to 25 U.S.C.
3001 (3)(A), the 3,364 objects 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. Lastly, officials of the Fowler
Museum at UCLA 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 associated funerary objects and the
Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians
of the Agua Caliente Indian Reservation,
California; Augustine Band of the
Cahuilla Mission Indians of the
Augustine Reservation, California;

tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the human remains and
associated funerary objects should
contact Wendy Teeter, Curator of
Archaeology, Fowler Museum at UCLA,
