The human remains and associated funerary objects were removed from sites on the Ute Mountain Ute Reservation, 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.

This notice corrects the cultural affiliation determination published in a Notice of Inventory Completion in the **Federal Register** (78 FR 14060-14061, March 15, 2011). After additional research and consultation with subject matter experts, the Bureau of Indian Affairs has reassessed cultural affiliation. Transfer of control of the items in this notice has not occurred. Correction In the **Federal Register** (78 FR 14060, March 15, 2011), paragraph 3, sentence one is corrected by deleting the words “(hereinafter referred to as “The Tribes.”).” In the **Federal Register** (78 FR 14060-14061, March 15, 2011), paragraph 10 is corrected by substituting the following paragraph: Based on the preponderance of evidence, including geographical, kinship, biological, archeological, anthropological, linguistic, folklore, oral tradition, historical, and expert opinion, officials of the Bureau of Indian Affairs have reasonably determined that the Native American human remains are ancestral Puebloan.

In the **Federal Register** (78 FR 14060-14061, March 15, 2011), the last sentence of paragraph 11 is corrected by substituting the following sentence: Lastly, the officials of the Bureau of Indian Affairs have determined, pursuant to 25 U.S.C. 3001(2), that there is a relationship of shared group identity that can be reasonably traced between the Native American human remains and associated funerary objects and The Tribes.
