Approval of a Phase 1 restoration plan
and projects within, allows the TIG to
develop information needed to fully
consider design alternatives in a later
restoration plan (phase 2). In the final
Phase 1 RP #1, the LA TIG selected six
conceptual projects for E&D, using
funds as provided for in the DWH
Consent Decree. Two of those projects
selected to undergo E&D were the
Barataria Basin Ridge and Marsh
Creation Project Spanish Pass Increment
(Spanish Pass project) and the Lake
Borgne Marsh Creation Project
Increment One (Lake Borgne project).
Upon development of E&D alternatives
for the two projects, a phase 2
restoration plan was drafted and an
OPA and NEPA analysis were
conducted on the design alternatives.
Notice of availability of the draft Phase
2 RP/EA #1.2 was published in the
Federal Register on October 18, 2019
(84 FR 55976). Public comment was
encouraged and accepted until
November 20, 2019. The LA TIG hosted
a public webinar on October 28, 2019 to
facilitate public review and comment.
The LA TIG considered the public
comments received and finalized the
Phase 2 RP/EA #1.2, selecting
construction designs for implementation
of both projects. A summary of the
public comments received and the LA
TIG’s responses to those comments are
presented in the final Phase 2 RP/EA
#1.2.
Overview of the LA TIG Final Phase 2
RP/EA #1.2
The Phase 2 RP/EA #1.2 is being
released in accordance with OPA NRDA
regulations found in the Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) at 15 CFR part 990,
NEPA and its implementing regulations
found at 40 CFR parts 1500–1508, the
Final PDARP/PEIS, and the Consent
Decree. The Phase 2 RP/EA #1.2
provides OPA and NEPA analyses for a
reasonable range of design alternatives
for the Spanish Pass and Lake Borgne
projects, and identifies the LA TIG’s
selected design alternatives, those
which the LA TIG believes best meet the
objectives of the Spanish Pass and Lake
Borgne projects. In accordance with
NEPA, as part of the final Phase 2 RP/
EA #1.2, the Trustees issued a FONSI.
The FONSI is available in Appendix F
of the Phase 2 RP/EA #1.2.
The Spanish Pass project is a
component of an overall large-scale
restoration strategy for the Barataria
Basin that would reestablish, through
multiple increments, ridge and
intertidal marsh habitats degraded due
to sea level rise, land subsidence,
diminished sediment supply, and storm
events. The total construction cost for
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 253001
the Spanish Pass project is
approximately $101,359,000 which will
be funded from the Wetlands, Coastal,
and Nearshore Habitats restoration type
allocation provided for in the Consent
Decree.
The Lake Borgne project is a
component of an overall large-scale
restoration strategy for the southwestern
shoreline of Lake Borgne that would
reestablish, through multiple
increments, the bay rim and intertidal
marsh habitat. The estimated total
construction cost for this increment is
$101,823,000 will be funded also from
the Wetlands, Coastal, and Nearshore
Habitats restoration type allocation.
Additional restoration planning for the
Louisiana Restoration Area will
continue.

this notice date to three periods in
prehistory recognized by archeologists
working the Santa Barbara Channel
region: Early Period (9,000 to 3,000
years ago), Middle Period (3,000 to 800
years ago), and Late Period (800 to 200
years ago). Linguistic, archeological, and
biological evidence demonstrate many
millennia of Chumash cultural presence
in the Santa Barbara region, beginning
in the Early Period. A cultural affiliation
study completed for the National Park
Service in 1999 demonstrated that
Chumash communities in the twentieth
century possess continuity with
identifiable earlier groups that inhabited
the Santa Barbara Channel region at the
time of European contact and
settlement. The only federally
recognized tribe of Chumash Indians
today is the Santa Ynez Band of Mission
Indians. Some individual members of
the federally recognized Tejon Indian
Tribe also possess Chumash ancestry.
Determinations Made by the Santa
Barbara Museum of Natural History
Officials of the Santa Barbara Museum
of Natural History have determined that:
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the
human remains described in this notice
represent the physical remains of 1,011
individuals of Native American
ancestry.
• Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A),
the 36,943 objects described in this
notice 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.
• 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 Santa Ynez Band of Chumash
Mission Indians of the Santa Ynez
Reservation, California.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or representatives
of any Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization not identified in this notice
that wish to request transfer of control
of these human remains and associated
funerary objects should submit a written
request with information in support of
the request to Luke Swetland, President

The majority of the human remains and associated funerary objects
listed in this notice date to three periods in prehistory recognized by
archeologists working the Santa Barbara Channel region: Early Period
(9,000 to 3,000 years ago), Middle Period (3,000 to 800 years ago), and
Late Period (800 to 200 years ago). Linguistic, archeological, and
biological evidence demonstrate many millennia of Chumash cultural
presence in the Santa Barbara region, beginning in the Early Period. A
cultural affiliation study completed for the National Park Service in
1999 demonstrated that Chumash communities in the twentieth century
possess continuity with identifiable earlier groups that inhabited the
Santa Barbara Channel region at the time of European contact and
settlement. The only federally recognized tribe of Chumash Indians
today is the Santa Ynez Band of Mission Indians. Some individual
members of the federally recognized Tejon Indian Tribe also possess
Chumash ancestry.
Determinations Made by the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History
Officials of the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History have
determined that:
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described
in this notice represent the physical remains of 1,011 individuals of
Native American ancestry.
Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 36,943 objects
described in this notice 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.
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 Santa
Ynez Band of Chumash Mission Indians of the Santa Ynez Reservation,
California.
Additional Requestors and Disposition
Lineal descendants or representatives of any Indian Tribe or Native
Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to
request transfer of control of these human remains and associated
funerary objects should submit a written request with information in
support of the request to Luke Swetland, President and CEO, Santa
Barbara Museum of Natural History, 2559 Puesta del Sol, Santa Barbara,
CA 93105, telephone (805) 682-4711, by November 2, 2020. After that
date, if no additional requestors have come forward, transfer of
control of the human remains and associated funerary objects to the
Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Mission Indians
[[Page 61977]]
of the Santa Ynez Reservation, California may proceed.
The Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History is responsible for
notifying the Santa Ynez Band of Chumash Mission Indians of the Santa
Ynez Reservation, California that this notice has been published.
