Archeology. Many areas on the National Mall were constructed on fill and do not contain any archaeological resources. However, the remaining naturally occurring areas may have potential or include known sites. NPS will consult with the DC SHPO and coordinate in advance of a proposed undertaking with all appropriate entities to establish areas where no further archeological survey will be necessary and where areas for potential archeology remain. NPS will follow all procedures within the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards as well as provide information on any projects that result in archeological investigation.
Archeology. In the event of any unanticipated archeological discoveries, the Contractor shall stop all work and notify the State immediately. Work shall not resume until the State determines how any previously undiscovered archeological remains will be treated. Special attention shall be given to any discovery of burials, xxxxxx, or human remains.
Archeology a. Identification and Assessment NPS shall use the Archeological Overview and Assessment (2005) for the Park as well as existing data from previous archeological surveys to determine where additional archeological research is needed to identify potentially significant archeological sites prior to ground disturbing work related to this undertaking. The methodology shall require field investigation and reporting standards to meet those laid out in 950 CMR 70.00 as well as the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Archeological Documentation. The methodology shall include a mixture of geophysical techniques suited to battlefield archeology and traditional survey methods to locate, assess, and avoid, where possible, impacts to known archeological sites. Prior to implementing any scope of work, NPS shall provide the proposed archeological methodology to all consulting parties to this PA for review and comment and take comments received into account.
Archeology. 2. Consulting Parties and the public will continue to have the opportunity to comment on the design of the transportation upgrades pursuant to this MOA.
