Archaeological Surveys Sample Clauses
The Archaeological Surveys clause establishes requirements for identifying and managing archaeological resources on a project site. Typically, it mandates that surveys be conducted before construction begins to detect any historical or cultural artifacts, and may outline procedures for halting work if such items are discovered during the project. This clause ensures compliance with heritage protection laws and helps prevent delays or legal issues by addressing potential archaeological concerns early in the project lifecycle.
Archaeological Surveys i. Undertakings subjected to archaeological field investigations which have no National Register-listed or eligible archaeological sites in the APE, a NCDOT CR Archaeology Specialist shall document the result following the requirements in 36 CFR 800.11(d) using the No National Register of Historic Places Eligible or Listed Archaeological Sites Present Form, in Attachment D. ii. The No National Register of Historic Places Eligible or Listed Archaeological Sites Present Form shall be included as part of the appropriate NEPA project files as well as the Annual Report. This document satisfies the consultation requirements and results in a finding of No Historic Properties Affected in accordance with 36 CFR 800.4(d)(1).
Archaeological Surveys. (a) In the continuing exploration and development of the Project, DBCMI shall conduct archaeological surveys to meet the prevailing standards of the day and respecting places of significance to Aboriginal Parties.
(b) Archaeological surveys shall to the greatest extent possible, be designed and, where possible, implemented in partnership with the Aboriginal Parties or if not possible, in Consultation with the Aboriginal Parties.
(c) DBCMI shall Consult with Aboriginal Parties to ensure that traditional knowledge is incorporated into the archaeological surveys and to ensure that archaeological and heritage sites are identified.
(d) In the event that a Heritage Resource is discovered in carrying out the Project, DBCMI shall immediately notify the Minister, the Prince of Wales Northern Heritage Centre and Aboriginal Parties of the presence of the Heritage Resource and DBCMI shall take all reasonable steps necessary to protect the Heritage Resource.
Archaeological Surveys. To support the Section 106 consultation (see Task 4), VHB will sub consult with IAC to perform a Phase IB archaeological surveys within the project Area of Potential Effect. This work will consist of hand excavation of up to 70 shovel test pits (STPs) distributed across two spatially distinct impact areas. Archaeologists will excavate up to 15 STPs within a proposed access area situated at the dam on the northern riverbank. Up to an additional 55 STPs will be located at upstream riverside landforms that could be subject to erosion associated with the dam’s removal. IAC’s previous Phase IA survey identified the riverside landforms as sensitive for both Pre‐Contact Native American and Post‐Contact Euroamerican archaeological resources, and the Phase IB work will confirm the presence or absence of such resources within the project’s impact areas. Under this task, the subconsultant will deliver a technical report summarizing the result of all findings and recommendations about whether further archaeological survey is advised (Phase II Determination of Eligibility). If a site is discovered, the scope includes the preparation of a site form to be submitted to the New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources. Phase II surveys are not included at this time and would be subject to an amendment if a site is identified and likely to be impacted. Also note that an additional archaeological monitoring plan may be needed upstream in the impoundment. A work plan for this monitoring program would be developed if the Section 106 MOA stipulates that such monitoring must be conducted. If required, VHB will develop a scope amendment and fee to cover this additional effort.
Archaeological Surveys. (a) In the continuing exploration and development of the Project site BHP shall conduct Archaeological surveys.
(b) Archaeological surveys of new Archaeological Sites must be done to the highest standards of the day and must respect places of significance to Aboriginal Peoples.
(c) Archaeological surveys shall to the greatest extent possible, be designed and carried out and identified in partnership with the affected Aboriginal Peoples and communities or if not possible, in Consultation with the affected Aboriginal Peoples and communities.
(d) BHP shall consult with affected Aboriginal Peoples and communities to ensure that traditional knowledge is incorporated into the archaeological surveys and to ensure that burial sites are identified.
