Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 126 / Monday, July 2, 2007 / Notices

Logan, Morgan, Saguache, Sedgwick,
and Yuma Counties, CO
This notice is published as part of the
National Park Service’s administrative
responsibilities under NAGPRA, 25
U.S.C. 3003 (d)(3). The determinations
in this notice are the sole responsibility
of the museum, institution, or Federal
agency that has control of the Native
American human remains and
associated funerary objects. The
National Park Service is not responsible
for the determinations in this notice.
This notice corrects the minimum
number of individuals and number of
tribes that were determined to be
culturally affiliated in a Notice of
Inventory Completion previously
published in the Federal Register of
February 1, 2006 (FR Doc E6–1273,
pages 5369–5373). The minimum
number of individuals is raised from 47
to 48. The Apache Tribe of Oklahoma
and Mescalero Apache Tribe of the
Mescalero Reservation, New Mexico
have been added to the list of culturally
affiliated Indian Tribes.
In the Federal Register of February 1,
2006, paragraph number 31 is corrected
by substituting the following paragraph:
In 1951, human remains representing
a minimum of two individuals were
removed from an unknown area near the
old toll station in Boulder Canyon,
Boulder County, CO. The human
remains were either transferred to the
University of Colorado Museum by
another University of Colorado
department or anonymously donated
prior to 1993. No known individuals
were identified. No associated funerary
objects are present.
In the Federal Register of February 1,
2006, paragraph numbers 56 to 58 are
corrected by substituting the following
paragraphs:
Officials of the University of Colorado
Museum have determined that,
pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001 (9–10), the
human remains described above
represent the physical remains of a
minimum of 48 individuals of Native
American ancestry. Officials of the
University of Colorado Museum also
have determined that, pursuant to 25
U.S.C. 3001(3)(A), the 79 objects
described above 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. Lastly, officials of the
University of Colorado Museum have
determined that, 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 the Apache Tribe of
Oklahoma; Arapahoe Tribe of the Wind
River Reservation, Wyoming;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Forms to Determine Compliance
by Certain Landholders, 43 CFR part
426. The former title of this information
collection was ‘‘Limited Recipient
Identification Sheet, Trust Information
Sheet, Public Entity Information Sheet
for Acreage Limitation, 43 CFR part
426.’’ Because of the addition of the
proposed new form to this information
collection as described below, we have
changed the title of this information
collection to ‘‘Forms to Determine
Compliance by Certain Landholders, 43
CFR part 426.’’ This title change will
allow us to capture the purpose of the
forms in this information collection
without listing lengthy form names.
Abstract: Identification of limited
recipients—Some entities that receive
Reclamation irrigation water may
believe that they are under the RRA
forms submittal threshold and,
consequently, may not submit the
appropriate RRA form(s). However,
some of these entities may in fact have
a different RRA forms submittal
threshold than what they believe it to be
due to the number of natural persons
benefiting from each entity and the
location of the land held by each entity.
In addition, some entities that are
exempt from the requirement to submit
RRA forms due to the size of their
landholdings (directly and indirectly
owned and leased land) may in fact be
receiving Reclamation irrigation water
for which the full-cost rate must be paid

VerDate Aug<31>2005

Jkt 211001

because the start of Reclamation
irrigation water deliveries occurred after
October 1, 1981 [43 CFR 426.6(b)(2)].
The information obtained through
completion of the Limited Recipient
Identification Sheet (Form 7–2536)
allows us to establish entities’
compliance with Federal reclamation
law. The Limited Recipient
Identification Sheet is disbursed at our
discretion. The proposed revisions to
the Limited Recipient Identification
Sheet will be included starting in the
2008 water year, and are designed to
facilitate ease of completion.
Trust review—We are required to
review and approve all trusts [43 CFR
426.7(b)(2)] in order to ensure trusts
meet the regulatory criteria specified in
43 CFR 426.7. Land held in trust
generally will be attributed to the
beneficiaries of the trust rather than the
trustee if the criteria are met. When we
become aware of trusts with a relatively
small landholding (40 acres or less), we
may extend to those trusts the option to
complete and submit for our review the
Trust Information Sheet (Form 7–2537)
instead of actual trust documents. If we
find nothing on the completed Trust
Information Sheet that would warrant
the further investigation of a particular
trust, that trustee will not be burdened
with submitting trust documents to us
for in-depth review. The Trust
Information Sheet is disbursed at our
discretion. The proposed revisions to
the Trust Information Sheet will be
included starting in the 2008 water year,
and are designed to facilitate ease of
completion.
Acreage limitation provisions
applicable to public entities—Land
farmed by a public entity can be
considered exempt from the application
of the acreage limitation provisions
provided the public entity meets certain
criteria pertaining to the revenue
generated through the entity’s farming
activities (43 CFR 426.10 and the Act of
July 7, 1970, Pub. L. 91–310). We are
required to ascertain whether or not
public entities that receive Reclamation
irrigation water meet such revenue
criteria regardless of how much land the
public entities hold (directly or
indirectly own or lease) [43 CFR
426.10(a)]. In order to minimize the
burden on public entities, standard RRA
forms are submitted by a public entity
only when the public entity holds more
than 40 acres subject to the acreage
limitation provisions westwide, which
makes it difficult to apply the revenue
criteria as required to those public
entities that hold less than 40 acres.
When we become aware of such public
entities, we may extend to those public
entities the option to complete and

PO 00000

Frm 00067

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

36033

submit for our review the Public Entity
Information Sheet (Form 7–2565),
which allows us to establish compliance
with Federal reclamation law for those
public entities that hold 40 acres or less
and thus do not submit a standard RRA
form because they are below the RRA
forms submittal threshold. In addition,
for those public entities that do not meet
the exemption criteria, we must
determine the proper rate to charge for
Reclamation irrigation water deliveries.
The Public Entity Information Sheet is
disbursed at our discretion. The
proposed revisions to the Public Entity
Information Sheet will be effective
starting in the 2008 water year and are
designed to facilitate ease of
completion.
Acreage limitation provisions
applicable to religious or charitable
organizations (new form)—Some
religious or charitable organizations that
receive Reclamation irrigation water
may believe that they are under the RRA
forms submittal threshold and,
consequently, may not submit the
appropriate RRA form(s). However,
some of these organizations may in fact
have a different RRA forms submittal
threshold than what they believe it to be
depending on whether these
organizations meet all of the required
criteria for full special application of the
acreage limitations provisions to
religious or charitable organizations [43
CFR 426.9(b)]. In addition, some
organizations that (1) do not meet the
criteria to be treated as a religious or
charitable organization under the
acreage limitation provisions, and (2)
are exempt from the requirement to
submit RRA forms due to the size of
their landholdings (directly and
indirectly owned and leased land), may
in fact be receiving Reclamation
irrigation water for which the full-cost
rate must be paid because the start of
Reclamation irrigation water deliveries
occurred after October 1, 1981 [43 CFR
426.6(b)(2)]. A new ‘‘Religious or
Charitable Organization Identification
Sheet’’ (Form 7–2578) has been
developed for approval as part of this
information collection, and will allow
us to establish certain religious or
charitable organizations’ compliance
with Federal reclamation law.
Reclamation anticipates a very minimal
increase in burden hours resulting from
the addition of this form because of the
very limited type of landholders that
can use this form. The Religious or
Charitable Organization Identification
Sheet is disbursed at our discretion and
will be effective starting in the 2008
water year.
