SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is here given in accordance with the 
Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), 25 
U.S.C. 3003, of the completion of an inventory of human remains under 
the control of the Stanford University Planning Office, Palo Alto, CA. 
The human remains were removed from Longville, Humbug Valley, in Plumas 
County, CA.
    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. The National Park Service is not responsible 
for the determinations in this notice.

Consultation

    A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by Stanford 
University Heritage Services professional staff in consultation with 
representatives of the Greenville Rancheria (previously listed as the 
Greenville Rancheria of Maidu Indians of California); the Susanville 
Indian Rancheria, California; the Maidu Summit Consortium (a non-
federally recognized Indian group); and with Ms. Beverly Ogle, an 
individual.

History and Description of the Remains

    In October 1895, human remains representing, at minimum, one 
individual were removed from a historic cemetery in Longville, Plumas 
County, CA. Excavations were carried out by Stanford University alumna, 
Mabel Louise Miller in 1895. She is known to have excavated a Native 
American cemetery abandoned around 1853 and located at a rancheria near 
Longville, in Plumas County. Miller gave the human remains to the 
Leland Stanford Junior Museum in October 1916 and subsequently, the 
museum transferred them to the Stanford University Department of 
Anthropology. Currently, the human remains are housed in the Stanford 
University Archaeology Collections. The cemetery was located with the 
assistance of Ms. Beverly Ogle and was used exclusively by Ms. Ogle's 
family. It lay adjacent to the home of Ms. Ogle's great-grandfather, 
Fred Thomas, in the former town site of Longville. Ms. Ogle's family 
used this

small cemetery in the middle to late 1800s.

Determinations Made by the Stanford University Heritage Services Office

    Officials of the Stanford University Heritage Services office have 
determined that:
     Pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(9), the human remains described 
in this notice represent the physical remains of one individual of 
Native American ancestry.
     Pursuant to 43 CFR 10.10(b)(1) and 43 CFR 10.14(b), 
Beverly Ogle is a lineal descendant of the human remains removed from 
the specific burial site.

Additional Requestors and Disposition

    Lineal descendants or representatives of any Indian tribe or Native 
Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to 
request transfer of control of these human remains should submit a 
written request with information in support of the request to Dr. Laura 
Jones, Stanford University Heritage Services, 3160 Porter Drive, Suite 
200, Palo Alto, CA 94304, telephone (650) 723-9664, email 
[email protected], by August 4, 2016. After that date, if no 
additional requestors have come forward, transfer of control of the 
human remains to Beverly Ogle may proceed.
    The Stanford University Heritage Services office is responsible for 
notifying the representatives of Greenville Rancheria (previously 
listed as the Greenville Rancheria of Maidu Indians of California); the 
Susanville Indian Rancheria, California; the Maidu Summit Consortium (a 
non-federally recognized Indian group); and Ms. Beverly Ogle that this
