ADDRESSES: Heather Gibb, Missouri Department of Natural Resources, P.O. 
Box 176, Jefferson City, MO 65102, telephone (573) 751-7858, email 
[email protected].

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Notice is hereby 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 Missouri 
Department of Natural Resources, Jefferson City, MO. The human remains 
and associated funerary objects were removed from the Clarksville Mound 
Group site (23PI6) in Pike County, MO.
    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 
Missouri Department of Natural Resources, which has control of the 
Native American human remains and associated funerary objects to which 
this notice pertains. The National Park Service is not responsible for 
the determinations in this notice.
    This notice corrects the cultural affiliation of the human remains 
and associated funerary objects published in a Notice of Inventory 
Completion in the Federal Register (78 FR 45960, July 30, 2013). The 
correction is based on evidence of cultural affiliation of the human 
remains and associated funerary objects with The Osage Nation 
(previously listed as the Osage Tribe) that was provided after the 
Notice of Inventory Completion was published. Transfer of control of 
the items in this correction notice has not occurred.

Correction

    In the Federal Register (78 FR 45960, July 30, 2013), column 2, 
full paragraph 2, under the heading ``Consultation,'' is corrected by 
substituting the following paragraph:

    A detailed assessment of the human remains was made by 
professional staff of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources 
in consultation with representatives of the Sac & Fox Nation, 
Oklahoma; Sac & Fox Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska; Sac & 
Fox Tribe of the Mississippi in Iowa; and The Osage Nation 
(previously listed as the Osage Tribe).

    In the Federal Register (78 FR 45960, July 30, 2013), column 3, 
full paragraph 1, under the heading ``History and Description of the 
Remains,'' is corrected by substituting the following paragraph:

    The area of Pike County, MO, was occupied by The Osage Nation 
(previously listed as the Osage Tribe) at various points in 
prehistory and was ceded by the Sauk and Fox in a series of treaties 
with the United States between 1804 and 1816. The Sauk and Fox are 
represented by the present-day Sac & Fox Nation, Oklahoma; Sac & Fox 
Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska; and Sac & Fox Tribe of 
the Mississippi in Iowa. Cultural affiliation was determined based 
on tribal history, oral history, and the historical association of 
these tribes to the counties bordering the Mississippi River, 
including Pike County, MO.

    In the Federal Register (78 FR 45960, July 30, 2013), column 3, 
full paragraph 5, under the heading ``Determinations Made by the 
Missouri Department of Natural Resources,'' is corrected by 
substituting the following paragraph:

    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 Sac & Fox Nation, Oklahoma; Sac & Fox 
Nation of Missouri in Kansas and Nebraska; Sac & Fox Tribe of the 
Mississippi in Iowa; and The Osage Nation (previously listed as the 
Osage Tribe).

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 and associated 
funerary objects should submit a written request with information in 
support of the request to Heather Gibb, Missouri Department of Natural 
Resources, P.O. Box 176, Jefferson City, MO 65102, telephone (573) 751-
7858, email [email protected], by October 23, 2017. After that 
date, if no additional requestors have come forward, transfer of
