[email protected].

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 correction of an inventory of human remains and 
associated funerary objects under the control of the Museum of Northern 
Arizona, Flagstaff, AZ. The human remains and associated funerary 
objects were removed from the Cashion site (NA14690), Maricopa County, 
AZ.
    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 number of associated funerary objects 
published in a Notice of Inventory Completion in the Federal Register 
(71 FR 53469-53470, September 11, 2006). These additional associated 
funerary objects were located during a comprehensive inventory prior to 
the legal transfer of the Cashion site (NA14690) collections to the 
ownership of the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community of the Salt 
River Reservation, Arizona. Transfer of control of the items in this 
correction notice has not occurred.

Correction

    In the Federal Register (71 FR 53469, September 11, 2006), column 
3, paragraph 1, sentence 5, is corrected by substituting the following 
sentence:

    The 800 associated funerary objects are 325 pottery and ceramic 
fragments; 102 jewelry items and fragments; 1 reed mat; 2 different 
pieces of cloth; 123 soil, faunal bone, C-14, pollen, and wood 
samples; and 247 tools and implements.

    In the Federal Register (71 FR 53470, September 11, 2006), column 
1, paragraph 1, sentence 2, is corrected by replacing the number 
``796'' with the number ``800.''

Hawaiian organization not identified in this notice that wish to 
request transfer of control of these human remains and associated 
funerary objects should submit a written request with information in
