In <br />the event that a period in excess of one year is required to complete such study and analysis, the commission <br />shall hold a hearing and may, based upon its findings, grant an extension. During the period that the human <br />remains are in the temporary custody of the archaeologist who conducted the disinterment, an archaeological <br />analysis and report shall be prepared. At the same time, a physical anthropological study shall be conducted <br />to include, but not be limited to, osteometric measurement, pathological analysis, and age, sex, and cause of <br />death determinations. The cost of the disinterment, archaeological analysis, and physical anthropological <br />study shall be borne by the state archaeologist except when the human remains are recovered from private <br />lands. In the latter case, if no party can be identified who will bear the cost of such scientific study, the state <br />archaeologist shall bear such costs. <br />(f) Upon completion of the studies pursuant to paragraph (e) of this subsection (4), the state archaeologist <br />shall consult with the commission regarding reinterment. <br />(5) Those remains which are verifiably nonnative American and are otherwise unclaimed will be delivered to <br />the county coroner for further conveyance to the Colorado state anatomical board. <br />HISTORY: Source: L. 90: Entire part added, p. 1280, § 6, effective May 9. <br />Document 1 of 2. next~~ <br />Terms_& Conditions Privacy_ Copyright c 2003 LexisNexis, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc.
