SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This notice is published as part of the

Amendment
This notice amends the determination of cultural affiliation
published in a Notice of Intent to Repatriate Cultural Items in the
Federal Register (89 FR 65926-65927, August 13, 2024). Repatriation of
an item in the original Notice of Intended Repatriation, a pottery pipe
from the Treadway site, Jefferson County, NY, has not occurred. This
notice amends the Indian Tribes listed in the determinations section.
Additional information of cultural affiliation was provided to support
the addition of the Oneida Indian Nation.
Determinations (as Amended)
The New York State Museum has determined that:
<bullet> There is a reasonable connection between the cultural item
in this notice and the Onondaga Nation and the Oneida Indian Nation.
Requests for Repatriation
Additional, written requests for repatriation of the cultural items
in this notice must be sent to the Responsible Official identified in
ADDRESSES. Requests for repatriation may be submitted by any lineal
descendant, Indian Tribe, or Native Hawaiian organization not
identified in this notice who shows, by a preponderance of the
evidence, that the requestor is a lineal 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 January 6, 2025. If competing requests for
repatriation are received, the California State University, Sacramento
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 New York State Museum is
responsible for sending a copy of this notice to the Indian Tribes and
Native Hawaiian organizations identified in this notice.
Authority: Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act,
25 U.S.C. 3004, and the implementing regulations, 43 CFR 10.9.
Dated: November 22, 2024.
