Funerary objects, called associated grave goods in PRC Section 5097.98, are also to be treated according to this statute. B. If Native American human remains and/or grave goods are discovered or recognized on the project site, then all construction activities shall immediately cease. Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 dictates that any discoveries of human skeletal material shall be immediately reported to the County Coroner and all ground-disturbing activities shall immediately halt and shall remain halted until the Coroner has determined the nature of the remains. If the Coroner recognizes the human remains to be those of a Native American or has reason to believe they are Native American, he or she shall contact, by telephone within 24 hours, the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC),and PRC Section 5097.98 shall be followed. C. Human remains and grave/burial goods shall be treated alike per California PRC Sections 5097.98(d)(1)and(2). D. Construction activities may resume in other parts of the project site at a minimum of 200 feet away from discovered human remains and/or burial goods, if the Kizh Nation P:\HBC2201.01\04.2-Draft EIR\7.0 MMRP_4.10.23.docx.04/10/23» 7-7 BOLSA CHICA SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY PROJECT DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT HUNTINGTON BEACH,CALIFORNIA APRIL 2023 Table 7.A: Mitigation and Monitoring Reporting Program Responsible Party/ Timing for Mitigation Draft EIR Mitigation Measures,Standard Conditions,or Regulatory Compliance Measures Approving Agency Measure and Acjachemen Nation monitors determine that resuming construction activities at that distance is acceptable and provides the project manager express consent of that determination (along with any other mitigation measures the Kizh Nation and Acjachemen Nation monitors and/or archaeologists deems necessary). (CEQA Guidelines Section 15064.5(f).) E. Preservation in place (i.e., avoidance) is the preferred manner of treatment for discovered human remains and/or burial goods. Any historic archaeological material that is not Native American in origin (non-TCR) shall be curated at a public, non-profit institution with a research interest in the materials,such as the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County or the Fowler Museum,if such an institution agrees to accept the material. If no institution accepts the archaeological material, it shall be offered to a local school or historical society in the area for educational purposes. F. Any discovery of human remains/burial goods shall be kept confidential to prevent further disturbance. MM TCR-3 Procedures for Burials and Funerary Remains. Kizh Nation During construction A.

Descendant ("MLD") for any human remains discovered or recognized on the project site, the Koo-nas-gna Burial Policy shall be implemented.To the Kizh Nation, the term "human remains"encompasses more than human bones. In ancient as well as historic times,Tribal Traditions included, but were not limited to,the preparation of the soil for burial,the burial of funerary objects with the deceased,and the ceremonial burning of human remains. B. If the discovery of human remains includes four or more burials,the discovery location shall be treated as a cemetery and a separate treatment plan shall be created. C. The prepared soil and cremation soils are to be treated in the same manner as bone fragments that remain intact. Associated funerary objects are objects that, as part of the death rite or ceremony of a culture, are reasonably believed to have been placed with individual human remains either at the time of death or later; other items made exclusively for burial purposes or to contain human remains can also be considered as associated funerary objects. Cremations will either be removed in bulk or by means as necessary to ensure complete recovery of all sacred materials. D. In the case where discovered human remains cannot be fully documented and recovered on the same day,the remains will be covered with muslin cloth and a steel plate that can be moved by heavy equipment placed over the excavation opening to protect the remains.If this type of steel plate is not available,a 24-hour guard should be 7-8 P:\HBC2201.01\04.2-Draft EIR\7.0 MMRP_4.10.23.docx a04/10/23» DRAFT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT BOLSA CHICA SENIOR LIVING COMMUNITY PROJECT APRIL 2023 HUNTINGTON BEACH,CALIFORNIA Table 7.A: Mitigation and Monitoring Reporting Program Responsible Party/ Timing for Mitigation Draft EIR Mitigation Measures,Standard Conditions,or Regulatory Compliance Measures Approving Agency _ Measure posted outside of working hours.The Kizh Nation will make every effort to recommend diverting the project and keeping the remains in situ and protected. If the project cannot be diverted,it may be determined that burials will be removed. E. In the event that preservation in place is not possible despite good faith efforts by the project applicant/developer and/or landowner,before ground-disturbing activities may resume on the project site, the landowner shall arrange a designated site location within the footprint of the project for the respectful reburial of the human remains and/or ceremonial objects. F. Each occurrence of human remains and associated funerary objects will be stored using opaque cloth bags.All human remains,funerary objects,sacred objects and objects of cultural patrimony will be removed to a secure container on site if possible.These items should be retained and reburied within 6 months of recovery. The site of reburial/ repatriation shall be on the project site but at a location agreed upon between the Kizh Nation and the landowner at a site to be protected in perpetuity. There shall be no publicity regarding any cultural materials recovered. G. The Kizh Nation will work closely with the project's qualified archaeologist to ensure that the excavation is treated carefully, ethically, and respectfully. If data recovery is approved by the Kizh Nation, documentation shall be prepared and shall include (at a minimum) detailed descriptive notes and sketches. All data recovery-related forms of documentation shall be approved in advance by the Kizh Nation. If any data recovery is performed,once complete,a final report shall be submitted to the Kizh Nation and the NAHC.The Kizh Nation does NOT authorize any scientific study or the utilization of any invasive and/or destructive diagnostics on human remains. 4.10:Utilities and Service Systems The proposed project would not result in any significant adverse impacts related to utilities and service systems.No mitigation is required.
