The human remains were subsequently assigned index number 464 in the Colgate Collection database. No known individuals were identified. No associated funerary objects are present. srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Determinations Made by the Longyear Museum of Anthropology Officials of the Longyear Museum of Anthropology have determined that: • Based on the presence of Native American artifacts in the Howe Collection, the description of the site from which the human remains were recovered, and the records in the Longyear Museum of Anthropology, the human remains are Native American. • Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), a relationship of shared group identity cannot be reasonably traced between the Native American human remains and any present-day Indian tribe. • The 1795 Treaty of Greenville (7 Stat. 49, December 2, 1795), indicates that the land from which the Native American human remains were removed is the aboriginal land of the Absentee-Shawnee Tribe of Indians of Oklahoma; Delaware Tribe of Indians, Oklahoma; Eastern Shawnee Tribe of Oklahoma; Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, Michigan; Shawnee Tribe, Oklahoma; and the Wyandotte Nation, Oklahoma. The Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, Michigan, have at least two signatories on the 1795 Treaty of Greenville (La Malice and Keenoshameek), which ceded land to the United States Government, including land that is now Marion County, OH. • Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described in this notice represent the physical remains of two individuals of Native American ancestry. • Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.11(c)(1), the disposition of the human remains is to the Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians, Michigan.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michel Smyth by telephone at 202–693– 4129 (this is not a toll-free number) or by email at DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov. Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). Diesel particulate matter (DPM) is a probable carcinogen that consists of tiny particles present in diesel engine exhaust that can readily penetrate into the deepest recesses of the lungs. Despite ventilation, the confined underground mine work environment may contribute to significant concentrations of particles produced by equipment used in the mine. Underground miners are exposed to higher concentrations of DPM than any other occupational group. As a result, they face a significantly greater risk than other workers do of developing such diseases as lung cancer, heart failure, serious allergic responses, and other cardiopulmonary problems. The DPM regulation established a permissible exposure limit to total carbon, which is a surrogate for measuring a miner’s exposure to DPM. These regulations include a number of other requirements for the protection of miners’ health. The DPM regulations contain information collection requirements for underground metal and non-metal mine operators under SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\28AUN1.SGM 28AUN1
