Common use of Archeological Resources Clause in Contracts

Archeological Resources. No archeological resources are known to occur within NRP. However, prehistoric and historic use of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Field vicinity is well documented and as yet unidentified buried archeological resources could be encountered during ground disturbing activity. Appendix D presents a plate identifying archeological sensitive areas. To ensure that all resources are properly identified, evaluated and treated (if necessary), the following measures will be initiated: • Specific language should be included in the General Specifications section of any contract requiring excavation in regard to the required protection of cultural resources and the procedures to be followed by the contractor in an unexpected discovery situation. • NASA shall develop an Unexpected Discovery Plan to deal with the inadvertent exposure of subsurface archeological resources during construction, in accordance with 36 CFR 800.11.
