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 University of 
California, Davis, Davis, CA. The human remains and associated funerary 
objects were removed from CA-YOL-17 in Yolo 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 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 associated funerary objects published in a Notice of Inventory 
Completion in the Federal Register (73 FR 47228-47229, August 13, 
2008). Additional human remains were newly identified after review of 
faunal collections. In addition, human remains from this site 
previously identified as culturally unidentifiable were re-evaluated in 
consultation and determined to be culturally affiliated. Based on 
consultation and review of the original field records, associated 
funerary objects were added. Transfer of control of the items in this 
correction notice has not occurred.
