AB 977: California Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act of 2001: California State University: burial sites: human remains.

The bill requires the California State University to develop a policy for the reburial of Native American human remains that have been repatriated on land owned by the university. The policy must be consulted with California Indian tribes, including discussions on the handling and repatriation of remains, and the proposed location for reburial must be mutually agreed upon by the university and the tribes. This policy is aimed at ensuring the respectful and dignified treatment of Native American human remains.
