Abstract of Information Available Based on the information available, human remains representing, at least, one individual have been reasonably identified. No associated funerary objects are present. The individual’s remains were disturbed in 1990 during the excavation and expansion of 45 Moore Road, Town of Germantown, Columbia County, New York, which overlooks the Hudson River. The Columbia County Sheriff’s Department opened an investigation (Case 6641–90). On August 8, 1990, a Columbia County Sheriff’s Department investigator brought the remains to the Onondaga County Medical Examiner’s Office for analysis. After William C. Rodriguez, III, Ph.D., completed his analysis, the remains were stored at the Onondaga County Medical Examiner’s Office until May 1, 1991, when they were returned to the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office. Sometime after that, they were brought to the Town of Germantown Records Retention Room, where they have been since. The Town Historian discovered the individual’s remains in the records retention room on January 13, 2024. According to the report, the remains contain portions of the cranium, distal portions of the left and right humeri, proximal end of the right ulnae, right tibial mid-shaft, superior portions of the left and right scapula, superior half of the left innominate, both femurs, rib fragments, right temporal and parietal bone portions, assorted phalanges of the feet, right half of the mandible, including 1st and 2nd molars, maxilla.

For further information concerning the conduct of these reviews and rules of general application, consult the Commission’s Rules of Practice and Procedure, part 201, subparts A and B (19 CFR part 201), and part 207, subparts A, D, E, and F (19 CFR part 207).

Abstract of Information Available

    A total of 1,949 cultural items have been requested for 
repatriation. The 1,949 unassociated funerary objects are projectile 
points, stone tools, bone objects, cordage fragments, basketry 
fragments, tule knots, stone flakes, shell, faunal remains, wood,

    Objects described above were removed from Siskiyou County, CA by 
R.J. Squier and Gordon L. Grosscup during archaeological excavations 
occurring between 1952-1954. Excavations took place at two national 
wildlife refuges (NWR) operated by the USFWS, Tule Lake and Lowe 
Klamath NWR, where these objects were removed from four sites (CA-Sis-
2, CA-Sis-108, CA-Sis-223, CA-Sis-239). These objects have been curated

since their removal.

Determinations

    The USFWS has determined that:
     The 1,949 unassociated funerary objects described in this 
notice are reasonably believed to have been placed intentionally with

or later as part of the death rite or ceremony of a Native American 
culture according to the Native American traditional knowledge of a 
lineal descendant, Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian organization. The 
unassociated funerary objects have been identified by a preponderance 
of the evidence as related to human remains, specific individuals, or 
families, or removed from a specific burial site or burial area of an 
individual or individuals with cultural affiliation to an Indian Tribe 
or Native Hawaiian organization.

items described in this notice and the Klamath Tribes and Modoc Nation.

in this notice must be sent to the authorized representative identified 
in this notice under ADDRESSES. Requests for repatriation may be

descendant or a culturally affiliated Indian Tribe or Native Hawaiian 
organization.
    Repatriation of the cultural items in this notice to a requestor 
may occur on or after August 12, 2024. If competing requests for 
repatriation are received, the USFWS must determine the most 
appropriate requestor prior to repatriation. Requests for joint 
repatriation of the cultural items are considered a single request and 
not competing requests. The USFWS is responsible for sending a copy of 
this notice to the Indian Tribes and Native Hawaiian organizations 
identified in this notice and to any other consulting parties.
