Notice of Proposed Withdrawal
Extension and Opportunity for Public
Meeting: Alaska
Bureau of Land Management,
Interior.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: The U.S. Air Force (USAF)
has filed an application with the Bureau
of Land Management that proposes to
extend the duration of Public Land
Order (PLO) No. 6706 for an additional
20-year term. PLO No. 6706 withdrew
4,606.70 acres of public land from
settlement, sale, location, or entry under
the general land laws, including the
United States mining laws (30 U.S.C.
Ch. 2), and from leasing under the
mineral leasing laws, to protect the
United States Air Force Indian
Mountain Research Site. This notice
also provides an opportunity for the
public to comment on the proposed
action and to request a public meeting.
DATES: Comments and requests for a
public meeting must be received by
December 9, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Comments and meeting
requests should be sent to the BLM
Alaska State Director, Attn: Renee
Fencl, Alaska State Office, 222 West 7th
Avenue, No. 13, Anchorage, Alaska
99513–7504.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Renee Fencl, BLM Alaska State Office,
(907) 271–5067.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
withdrawal created by PLO No. 6706 (54
FR 979, January 11, 1989) will expire
January 10, 2009, unless extended. The
USAF has filed an application to extend
PLO No. 6706 for an additional 20-year
term to protect the integrity of the
information being monitored by seismic

Mountain Research Site.
This withdrawal comprises 4,606.70
acres of public land located within:
Kateel River Meridian
T. 7 N., R. 24 E.,
Secs. 13 to 16,
Secs. 21 to 27,
Secs. 34, 35, and 36; and
T. 7 N., R. 25 E.,
Secs. 18, and 19 as described in PLO
No. 6706 (54 FR 979, January 11,
1989). A complete description,
along with all other records
pertaining to the extension
application, can be examined in the
BLM Alaska State Office at the
address shown above.
As extended, the withdrawal would
not alter the application of those public
land laws governing the use of land
under lease, license, or permit or
governing the disposal of the mineral or
vegetative resources other than under
the mining and mineral leasing laws.
The use of a right-of-way or
interagency or cooperative agreement
would not adequately protect the
Federal investment in the Indian
Mountain Research Site.
There are no suitable alternative sites
available since the Indian Mountain
Research Site is already constructed on
the above-described public land.
No water rights would be needed to
fulfill the purpose of the requested
withdrawal extension.
For a period of 90 days from the date
of publication of this notice, all persons
who wish to submit comments,
suggestions, or objections in connection
with the proposed withdrawal extension
may present their views in writing to
the BLM Alaska State Director at the
address indicated above. Before
including your address, phone number,
e-mail address, or other personal
identifying information in your
comment, you should be aware that
your entire comment—including your
personal identifying information—may
be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment
to withhold your personal identifying
information from public review, we
cannot guarantee that we will be able to
do so. Individual respondents may
request confidentiality. If you wish to
withhold your name or address from
public review or from disclosure under
the Freedom of Information Act, you
must state this prominently at the
beginning of your comments. Such
requests will be honored to the extent
allowed by law. All submissions from
organizations or businesses, and from
individuals identifying themselves as
representatives or officials of

organizations or businesses, will be
made available for public inspection in
their entirety.
Notice is hereby given that an
opportunity for a public meeting is
afforded in connection with the
proposed withdrawal extension. All
interested parties who desire a public
meeting for the purpose of being heard
on the proposed extension must submit
a written request to the BLM Alaska
State Director within 90 days from the
date of publication of this notice. Upon
determination by the authorized officer
that a public meeting will be held, a
notice of the time and place will be
published in the Federal Register at
least 30 days before the scheduled date
of the meeting.
The withdrawal extension proposal
will be processed in accordance with
the regulations set forth in 43 CFR
2310.4 and subject to Section 810 of the
Alaska National Interest Lands
Conservation Act, 16 U.S.C. 3120
(2000).

DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR
National Park Service
Notice of Intent To Repatriate Cultural
Items: Field Museum of Natural
History, Chicago, IL
National Park Service, Interior.
Notice.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
Notice is here given in accordance
with the Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3005, of the intent
to repatriate cultural items in the
possession of the Field Museum of
Natural History (Field Museum),
Chicago, IL, that meet the definition of
‘‘unassociated funerary objects’’ under
25 U.S.C. 3001.
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 cultural
items. The National Park Service is not
responsible for the determinations in
this notice.
The two cultural items are a rattle and
a worked walrus tusk.
The rattle (catalog number 78326) is
carved wood with shell or glass bead
PO 00000

rattlers. It is painted with blue and red
mineral paints. The body of the rattle
represents an oyster catcher. The handle
of the rattle is wrapped with a strip of
black leather, and string is wrapped
around the upper neck of the oyster
catcher. It measures approximately 13
inches long and 3 inches wide.
The worked walrus tusk (catalog
number 78074) is comprised of four
sections. Each section measures
approximately 11 inches long.
According to Field Museum records,
the walrus tusk sections were ‘‘found in
an old cave on a small Island in Icy
Straits where a Shaman of the ‘Hoonah’
tribe was laid away.’’ The rattle was
‘‘believed to have come from an old
grave house on the shores of Frederick
Bay, near the village of ‘Gan-der-kan,’ of
the ‘Hoonah tribe’.’’
At an unknown date, Lieutenant
Emmons acquired the walrus tusk
sections and rattle. In 1902, the Field
Museum of Natural History purchased
the cultural items from Lieutenant
Emmons, and accessioned them into its
collection that same year.
The cultural affiliation of the two
cultural items is Hoonah Tlingit, as
indicated through museum records and
consultation with representatives of the
Hoonah Indian Association.
Officials of the Field Museum of
Natural History have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (3)(B), the
two cultural items 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
a death rite or ceremony and are
believed, by a preponderance of the
evidence, to have been removed from a
specific burial site of a Native American
individual. Officials of the Field
Museum of Natural History 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
unassociated funerary objects and the
Hoonah Indian Association.
Representatives of any other Indian
tribe that believes itself to be culturally
affiliated with the unassociated funerary
objects should contact Helen Robbins,
Repatriation Director, Field Museum of
Natural History, 1400 South Lake Shore
Drive, Chicago, IL 60605, telephone
(312) 665–7317, before October 10,
2008. Repatriation of the unassociated
funerary objects to the Hoonah Indian
Association may proceed after that date
if no additional claimants come
forward.
The Field Museum of Natural History
is responsible for notifying the Central
Council of the Tlingit & Haida Indian
Tribes, Hoonah Indian Association,
