I. Abstract
The Native American Graves
Protection and Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA), requires museums to
compile certain information
(summaries, inventories, and notices)
regarding Native American cultural
items in their possession or control and
provide that information to lineal
descendants, likely interested Indian
tribes and Native Hawaiian
organizations, and the National
NAGPRA Program (acting on behalf of
the Secretary of the Interior, housed in
the National Park Service), to support
consultation in the process of
publishing notices that establish rights
to repatriation. The summaries are
general descriptions of the museum’s
Native American collection, sent to all
possibly interested tribes to disclose the
collection, should the tribe desire to
consult on items and present a claim.
The inventories are item-by-item lists of
the human remains and their funerary
objects, upon which the museum
consults with likely affiliated tribes to
determine cultural affiliation, tribal land
origination, or origination from
aboriginal lands of Federal recognized
tribes.
Consultation and claims for items
require information exchange between
museums and tribes on the collections.
Notices of Inventory Completion,
published in the Federal Register
indicate the museum decisions of rights
of lineal descendants and tribes to
receive human remains and funerary
objects; Notices of Intent to Repatriate,
published in the Federal Register,
indicate the agreements of museums
and tribes to transfer control to tribes of
funerary objects, sacred objects and
objects of cultural patrimony. Museums
identify NAGPRA protected items in the
collection through examination of
museum records and from consultation
with tribes.
The National NAGPRA Program
maintains the public databases of
summary, inventory and notice
information to support consultation. In
the first 20 years of the administration
of NAGPRA approximately 40,000
Native American human remains, of a
possible collection of 180,000
individuals, have been listed in
NAGPRA notices. Information collected
in previous years is of lasting benefit,
diminishing efforts in future years.

invite the general public and other
Federal agencies to comment on this IC.
We may not conduct or sponsor and a

Please reference IC ‘‘1024-National
Recreation Trails and National Water
Trails System’’ in the subject line.
SUMMARY:
I. Abstract
The purpose of this information
collection is to assist the National Park
Service (NPS) in submitting suitable
trails or trail systems to the Secretary of
the Interior for designation as National
Recreation Trails (NRTs), and in
recommending exemplary water trails to
the Secretary of the Interior for
designation as National Water Trails
(NWTs) to be included in the National
Water Trails System (NWTS). The
information collected will be used by
the NPS, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service,
U.S. Bureau of Land Management, U.S.
Bureau of Reclamation, and U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers to evaluate the
applications for adherence to NRT
requirements and criteria and for NWTs,
to determine if additional best
management practices have been met.
The NPS administers the NRT
program by authority of section 4 of the
National Trails System Act (16 U.S.C.
1243). Secretarial Order No. 3319
established National Water Trails as a
class of National Recreation Trails and
directed that such trails collectively be
considered in a National Water Trail
System.
Designation as a NRT provides
national recognition to local and
regional trails or trail systems,
acknowledging local and state efforts to
build and maintain viable trails and trail
systems. This recognition function is
shared by the Secretary of Agriculture
(for trails on National Forest lands and
waters) and the Secretary of the Interior
(for all other trails). The Secretary of the
Interior has delegated NRT coordination
to the NPS, which also maintains the
system of record for the more than 1,200
NRTs and 9 NWTs designated to date.
The NWTS is focused on building a
national network of exceptional water
trails that can be sustained by an ever
growing and vibrant water trail
community. The NWTS connects
Americans to the nation’s waterways
and strengthens the conservation and
restoration of those waterways. Best
management practices provide high
quality water-based outdoor recreational
opportunities.
