DECEMBER 1, 2000 Officials at the Bureau of Land Management apparently allowed members of two Ute Tribes in Colorado to rebury ancestral remains on federal land despite policy against doing so. The practice was discovered after the Department of Interior conducted a routine audit of the BLM. The Interior's report on the issue says the burials occurred in 1997 and 1998 when officials allowed members of the Ute Mountain and Northern Ute Tribes to rebury remains on public land managed by the BLM.
