the Archeology Task Force, Advisory Council on Historic Preservation,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Advisory Council on Historic 
Preservation (ACHP) has extended until Friday, December 2, 2005, the 
public comment period on the Working Principles to guide any revisions 
to its ``Policy Statement Regarding Treatment of Human Remains and 
Grave Goods'' (1988 Human Remains Policy).
    Information on the 1988 Human Remains Policy and the Working 
Principles was published in the Federal Register on September 1, 2005

    The ACHP's Archeology Task Force will use the comment it receives 
on the Working Principles to draft any proposed revisions to the 1988 
Human Remains Policy. Such proposed revisions will then be subject to 
further public review and comment. Following this public review 
process, the Task Force may decide to present a revised policy 
statement to the full ACHP membership for adoption.

    Dated: November 8, 2005.
John M. Fowler,
