and Wildlife to investigate fish passage
feasibility. In 2003, Reclamation
prevailed in a suit filed by the Yakama
Nation concerning the NEPA and
Endangered Species Act compliance for
the Keechelus Safety of Dams project.
The Yakama Nation then appealed that
decision to the 9th Circuit Court of
Appeals. In 2006, Reclamation and the
Yakama Nation entered into a
settlement agreement to resolve
litigation in which the parties agreed to
collaborate to prepare technical plans
and a planning report for fish passage at
Cle Elum and Bumping Lake Dams. This
Draft EIS is part of the agreed-upon
planning process for Cle Elum Dam
only. An EIS for Bumping Lake fish
passage will be prepared separately at a
future time.

Protection and Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA), 25 U.S.C. 3003, of the
completion of an inventory of human
remains in the possession of the Denver
Museum of Nature & Science, Denver,
CO. The human remains were removed
from Poinsett County, AR.
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 the Denver
Museum of Nature & Science
professional staff in consultation with
representatives of the Chickasaw
Nation, Oklahoma; Choctaw Nation of
Oklahoma; Osage Nation, Oklahoma;
and Quapaw Tribe of Indians,
Oklahoma.
In 1934, human remains representing
a minimum of one individual were
removed from a burial context three
miles north of Marked Tree, Poinsett
County, AR. In 1994, the human
remains were found in the museum’s
collections during an inventory and
then formally accessioned (DMNS
catalogue number A1991.3). No known
individual was identified. No associated
funerary objects are present.
Based on physical analysis, the
human remains are determined to be
Native American. Archeological
evidence suggests that mound sites in
Poinsett County date to the Parkin Phase
of the Mississippian nucleation horizon
(A.D. 1350–1650). Oral history evidence
and historical documentation,
supported by linguistic evidence,
indicate that the region, including
Poinsett County, has long been part of
the traditional ancestral homelands and
hunting territory of the Quapaw. After
further tribal consultation, the remains
have been determined to be culturally
affiliated with the Quapaw Tribe of
Indians, Oklahoma.
Officials of the Denver Museum of
Nature & Science have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 2001 (9–10), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of one
individual of Native American ancestry.
Officials of the Denver Museum of
Nature & Science 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 Quapaw Tribe of
Indians, Oklahoma.

Representatives of any other Indian

should contact Dr. Chip ColwellChanthaphonh, Denver Museum of

of the human remains to the Quapaw
Tribe of Indians, Oklahoma may
proceed after that date if no additional
claimants come forward.
The Denver Museum of Nature &
Science is responsible for notifying the
Chickasaw Nation, Oklahoma; Choctaw
Nation of Oklahoma; Osage Nation,
Oklahoma; and Quapaw Tribe of
Indians, Oklahoma that this notice has
been published.
