column, first paragraph, correct the fifth
sentence to read:
The 208 associated funerary objects
are one obsidian biface, seven lots of
non-human faunal bone, four lots of
charcoal, 119 clamshell disc beads, two
lots of debitage, seven lots of burned
pine nut fragments, two firecracked
groundstone fragments, 57 Olivella shell

collection).
3. On page 32182, in the third
column, correct the second paragraph to

approximately A.D. 1520–1770 (Phase 2
of the Late Period), based on the
antiquity of the associated funerary
objects. Historical, archeological,
anthropological and linguistic evidence
demonstrate a relationship of shared
group identity between the human
remains and associated funerary objects
described here and the Patwin Tribes.

column, third paragraph, correct the
fifth sentence to read:
The 353 associated funerary objects

pebbles, three shell fragments, three
obsidian projectile points, one calcined
bone (previously identified as a possible
stone bead fragment), and five pieces of
incised bird bone that may be from a
whistle or ear tube.

human remains described above
represent the physical remains of four
individuals of Native American
ancestry. Officials of the University of
California, Davis also have determined

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is

27993–27994, May 13, 2013). A reinventory and reassessment of
collections resulted in a revision to the

remains. The re-inventory also resulted
in the discovery of additional associated
funerary objects from site LA 297.

Environmental Policy Act of 1969; the
Council on Environmental Quality Final
Regulations, and the USIBWC
Operational Procedures for
Implementing Section 102 of NEPA,
published in the Federal Register
September 2, 1981, the USIBWC hereby
gives notice that the FINAL
Environmental Assessment and Finding
of No Significant Impact Arroyo
Colorado at Harlingen Flood Flow

Texas is available.

Kelly.Blough@ibwc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
USIBWC prepared the EA to evaluate
the environmental effects of several
options that would restore the full flood
conveyance capabilities to a 6.3-mile
reach of Arroyo Colorado between U.S.
Highway 77 Business (US 77 Business)
and Cemetery Road in Harlingen,
Cameron County Texas. The Preferred
Alternative would dredge sediment
from the channel throughout the reach
and expand existing vegetation
management operations. Vegetation
management currently occurs along a
3.7-mile reach of Arroyo Colorado
between US 77 Business and Farm-toMarket Road 509 (FM 509). The
Preferred Alternative would expand
vegetation management operations to
include the 2.6-mile reach from FM 509
to Cemetery Road. These actions are
intended to restore Arroyo Colorado’s
design flood conveyance capacity of
21,000 cubic feet per second.
The final EA evaluates potential
environmental impacts of the No Action
Alternative and the Preferred
Alternative. Two additional alternatives
were considered and evaluated but were
removed from consideration because
they were either not effective or not
feasible. Potential impacts on natural,
cultural, and other resources were
evaluated. A Finding of No Significant
Impact has been prepared for the
Preferred Alternative based on a review
of the facts and analyses contained in
the EA.
An open-house public scoping
meeting was held for the proposed
project on December 12, 2019, at the
Harlingen Community Center located at
201 E. Madison Avenue, Harlingen,
