    The Board of Trustees of Michigan State University submitted a petition to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission asking for a waiver of certain filing requirements for cogeneration facilities from April 16, 2006, onwards. This request seeks a declaratory order and any interested parties wishing to intervene or protest must submit their filings by March 21, 2021. The Commission advises electronic submissions via their website due to in-person restrictions caused by COVID-19.

    Simple Explanation

    Michigan State University asked for permission to skip some paperwork for its power project because of rules from a long time ago, and if anyone wants to argue against this or ask questions, they need to do it online by March 21, 2021, because people can't visit the office due to COVID-19.

    Michigan State University plans to return 40 cultural items to Native American tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations under the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). These items, which include ceramics and metal artifacts, were originally removed from a burial site on Mackinac Island, Michigan in 1969. The university has identified a connection between these items and the Sault Ste. Marie Tribe of Chippewa Indians, Michigan. Other eligible tribes or organizations can also request repatriation of the items by showing cultural affiliation, with the repatriation process beginning as soon as April 16, 2025.

    In accordance with the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), Michigan State University plans to repatriate a cultural item classified as an unassociated funerary object. This item is a textile fragment in plaster, linked to the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians, Michigan and Indiana, and was originally removed from a mound in Cass County, Michigan. The repatriation may take place on or after February 18, 2025, but other interested parties may submit requests for repatriation if they can demonstrate a cultural connection. Michigan State University will resolve any competing claims before proceeding with the handover.

    Simple Explanation

    Michigan State University is giving back a special item, like a piece of cloth, to a group of Native Americans called the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians because it belongs to them. They're planning to do this in February, but if other groups think it belongs to them too, they can speak up.
