The Proposed RMP Amendment would also change 319,501 acres of offhighway vehicle (OHV) area allocations within the planning area from open to limited OHV areas, which would limit OHV travel to existing routes and prohibit cross-country travel. This would create a total of 4.5 million acres within the planning area where OHV use would be limited to existing routes, and all of the protected lands with wilderness characteristics are within this limited OHV area category. The Proposed RMP Amendment would retain two open OHV areas totaling 40,368 acres and maintain the current 15,829 acres of closed OHV areas. The Proposed RMP Amendment would provide additional guidance on the implementation of the BLM’s Standards for Rangeland Health and the processing of voluntary grazing permit relinquishments. The Proposed RMP Amendment calls for the consideration of taking appropriate action in areas that are not meeting Standards for Rangeland Health even if existing livestock grazing is not a causal factor for non-attainment of the standard. The Proposed RMP Amendment also clarifies that the BLM would not permit increases to animal unit months if analysis finds that doing so could cause negative impacts to other resources in an area where there is either no rangeland health assessment and evaluation or if the evaluation no longer represents the existing resource conditions. The Proposed RMP Amendment calls for the BLM to review the compatibility of livestock grazing use with other existing resources in the permitted area when a voluntary permit relinquishment is received. If livestock grazing is found to be incompatible, the area could become unavailable to grazing and the forage allocation would be made to another resource. If grazing is found to be compatible with the other resource considerations, then the area would remain available to livestock grazing, and/or could be designated as a reserve common allotment. The other alternatives evaluated in the Final EIS are the No Action Alternative and Alternatives A, B, C, and D. These alternatives vary in the acreages of lands with wilderness characteristics identified for protection; the acreages of open, limited, and closed OHV area allocations; and various livestock grazing management approaches for implementing the Standards for Rangeland Health and VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:43 Jun 15, 2023 Jkt 259001 processing voluntary permit relinquishments. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR National Park Service Protest of the Proposed RMP Amendment [NPS–WASO–NAGPRA–NPS0036003; PPWOCRADN0–PCU00RP14.R50000] BLM planning regulations state that any person who participated in the preparation of the RMP and has an interest that will or might be adversely affected by approval of the Proposed RMP Amendment may protest its approval to the BLM. Protest on the Proposed RMP Amendment constitutes the final opportunity for administrative review of the proposed land use planning decisions prior to the BLM adopting an approved RMP Amendment. Instructions for filing a protest with the BLM regarding the Proposed RMP Amendment may be found online (see ADDRESSES). All protests must be in writing and mailed to the appropriate address or submitted electronically through the BLM ePlanning project website (see ADDRESSES). Protests submitted electronically by any means other than the ePlanning project website or by fax will be invalid unless a hard copy of the protest is also submitted. The BLM will render a written decision on each protest. The protest decision of the BLM shall be the final decision of the Department of the Interior. Responses to valid protest issues will be compiled and documented in a Protest Resolution Report made available following the protest resolution online at: https:// www.blm.gov/programs/planning-andnepa/public-participation/protestresolution-reports. Upon resolution of protests, the BLM will issue a Record of Decision and Approved RMP Amendment. Before including your address, phone number, email address, or other personal identifying information in your protest, you should be aware that your entire protest—including your personal identifying information—may be made publicly available at any time. While you can ask us in your protest to withhold from public review your personal identifying information, we cannot guarantee that we will be able to do so.

Description

    In 1927, human remains representing, at minimum, two individuals 
were removed from Stanley County, SD. Between 1918 and 1927, W.H. Over, 
then Director of the University of South Dakota Museum-Vermillion (now 
known as the W.H. Over Museum), excavated at Stony Point Village and 
its associated cemetery. During three visits to the site (in 1918, 
1919, and 1927), Over collected human remains belonging to 23 
individuals as well as the associated funerary objects. (Also, Over 
uncovered and reburied the human remains of three infants.)

[[Page 39453]]

    According to a letter from Over dated May 4, 1927, the ancestral 
remains housed at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign are from 
his 1927 excavations. On August 31, 1927, Over mailed to Dr. Frank C. 
Baker (then Director of the University of Illinois Museum of Natural 
History) the human remains and associated funerary objects listed in 
this notice (the other human remains and funerary belongings were 
stored at the University of South Dakota-Vermillion). These human 
remains belong to an elderly adult and an infant. No known individuals 
were identified. The five associated funerary objects are one lot of 
glass beads, one brass tinkling cone, one bone awl or hair pin, one 
faunal bone, and one lot of antler tine tips.

Cultural Affiliation

    The human remains and associated funerary objects in this notice 
are connected to one or more identifiable earlier groups, tribes, 
peoples, or cultures. There is a relationship of shared group identity 
between the identifiable earlier groups, tribes, peoples, or cultures 
and one or more Indian Tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations. The 
following types of information were used to reasonably trace the 
relationship: archeological, geographical, and historical.

Determinations

    Pursuant to NAGPRA and its implementing regulations, and after

organizations, the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign has 
determined that:
     The human remains described in this notice represent the 
physical remains of two individuals of Native American ancestry.
     The five 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.
     There is a relationship of shared group identity that can 
be reasonably traced between the human remains and associated funerary 
objects described in this notice and the Three Affiliated Tribes of the 
Fort Berthold Reservation, North Dakota.
