HPC5-22 2 0 a 4 Historical Preservation Commission May 22, 1997 HPC5-22 C. 48th Avenue Extension/Adams Street Widening; an archaeological investigation overview. 1. A staff report was given by Assistant Planner Leslie Mouriquand in conjunction with Senior Engineer John Freeland. A copy of the report is on file in the Community Development Department. 2. Mr. Jim Brock, Archaeological Advisory Group, stated he was hired by the City to investigate a section of Adams Street north of 48th Avenue. 1000 ft corridor, 55-feet wide of a highly sensitive area as identified by the Archaeological Clearing House (EIC) of Riverside. This project includes a previously surveyed spot they wanted to widen. He was present at this meeting to present the draft of his report for the Commission's review. Basically this study is looking at a midden site that is a significant find. It is like looking at somebody's trash. The site was buried into the top of the sanddune down approximately a meter. There is no way to not impact the site as the road will be widened. The site was originally recorded at the time the road was constructed. The beauty of the midden deposit is that it is a dense find. Most sites are mixed around in the sand and scattered. The soil helps to seal the site. This is the only midden site in La Quinta which affords such a unique opportunity. This site is related to one of the final fillings of the lake. They have theorized that there were four fillings of the lake within the last two millinea. This site is associated with one of I:hose fillings. It could date anywhere in the last one thousand years and should have a large assortment of fish and animal bones. The Cahuilla Indians had terms in their language for agriculture, but today there is no sign of the agricultural activity. This is a perfect and unique site that has research potential. It is proposed that they move into phase three and save and recover as much of the site as possible and continue to monitor. 3. Commissioner Wright stated it would be interesting to visit the site. Staff stated they would make arrangements for the Commissioners to visit the site. Commissioners discussed with staff the significance of the site. 4. Associate Planner Leslie Mouriquand asked if Mr. Brock would take pictures of the site to show to the Commission. Mr. Brock stated he normally does not take slides but will take pictures. This find would be worthy of a slide show. 3 005 Historical Preservation Commission May 22, 1997 5.

Certificate of Appropriateness 97-003; a request of KSL Land Corporation for a Historic Resources Evaluation of the La Quinta Hotel and architectural appropriateness of proposed houses and spa buildings within the Hotel compound. A staff report was presented by Associate Planner Leslie Mouriquand, a copy of which is on file in the Community Development Department. -. 007 HPC6-19 1 Historical Preservation Commission June 19, 1997 HPC6-19 2. Mr. Chevis Hosea, representing KSL Land Corporation, stated this phase of development concerning the historic and cultural aspect of the project was one of their primary concerns. The charm and romance of the resort cannot be duplicated and they want to be sure to preserve this. Due to the number of requests from guests asking to own their space at this site, they have created a space that would allow individual ownerships and not: lose the ambience of the Hotel. As it relates to the units adjacent to the historic Casitas units, they will be one story. The consultants and design team are long-time personnel who are very familiar with the Hotel and have a personal interest. In regard to the staff report, they would like to question staffs recommendation that an archaeologist be on staff during the grading. It is their contention that since this area has been under development for several years, all of the artifacts have already been gone over, recovered, or buried during compaction. They would like to reduce their costs wherever possible.. 3. Associate Planner Leslie Mouriquand stated it was her understanding that part of the project site had never been graded or covered. Forrest Haag, representing KSL, stated the only portion that appears to not have been disturbed is the vacant land and parking area. Mr. Haag went over the different development areas of the site. 4. Associate Planner Leslie Mouriquand stated that if there was to be grading or trenching for utility lines that would be below ten feet or more, they could be touching native soil and a monitor would be beneficial. Mr. Haag asked if the condition could be changed to require a monitor after a certain depth was reached. Mr. Hosea concurred that they would agree that if a certain depth was reached during the excavation/construction, the would agree to bringing a monitor on site. 5. Chairman Millis asked if it would be appropriate to look at the past development to determine if anything had been found before. Discussion followed regarding what was known about the previous construction. Staff stated other projects had been finding artifacts during their utility -trenching. 6. Chairman Millis asked if the applicant could do spot monitoring. Staff stated they was possible. Planning Manager Christine di Iorio stated the conditions could be changed to read that a monitor would be required for any trenching below ten feet (Condition #3). 2 Historical Preservation Commission June 19, 1997 7. Commissioner Wright stated he agreed with the condition change and commended KSL on their ballroom addition. 8. Commissioner DeMersman stated it was important to keep t:he difference between the old and new. He concurred with the spot monitoring and stated that long range planning was necessary for the future. It is important to maintain the historic character of the property. 9. Mr. Hosea introduced Scott Delacio who also stated his primary interest was in preserving the history and culture of the building. 10. Advisor Lauren Bricker stated she was struck by the San Vincente court and asked for its history. Judy Vossler, representing KSL, stated it was not apart of the original complex and may have been the caretakers house. Mr. Hosea stated it is currently being used as the housekeepers unit. Planning Manager Christine di Iorio asked if the applicant knew when it was built. Ms. Vossler stated it was unknown. Staff asked if it was included in the Mellon Report. Mr. Haag stated it was not. Advisor Bricker stated that the City should have more information on it. 11. Advisor Bricker stated the proposed project was a very handsome design. It is more of a vertically oriented design in composition than is the character of the overall design of the Hotel, even to the addition of the Hotel. If it is to be more dense as far as the ratio between the built and open space, it would be interesting to see if they could have the same square footage, but more similar to the La Casa units; more horizontal. Discussion followed regarding the architectural styles of the old, present, and proposed structures. 12. Advisor Bricker stated that in terms of perception, would there be a way to use the external staircases. Mr. Hosea stated they were able to do this on the Carriage units, but it creates a problem securing the lower units. This vertical element was introduced because it was the most popular to their guests. In trying to capture the guest experience, it was determined that the vertical experience was the most desirable. Advisor Bricker stated her only objection was the visual aspect as all the historical aspects of the site were horizontal. Historically it is a very horizontal experience. HPC6-19 Historical Preservation Commission June 19, 1997 13. Advisor Bricker asked if the east elevation windows were very large and whether or not this would be an issue. Mr. Hosea stated that it is the elevation that is forward of the hotel. An effort to create a nice break up of the wall in front as they wanted a more private and special environment on the inside. What is special about the La Quinta Resort is the outside experience. This does create a wall mass and they have tried to break this up and they could look into breaking it up further. Advisor Bricker suggested making the openings less symmetrical. Mr. Hosea went on to explain their design features for the proposed units. 14. There being no further discussion, Chairman Millis thanked the KSL representatives for their presentation. 15. Associate Planner Leslie Mouriquand previewed the Mellon Report with the Commission in respect to the Hotel and stated the Hotel, Ca.sitas, and the surrounding grounds were eligible for designation as a historic district at the local level under the local criteria. The report does not contain any discussion regarding eligibility for the National Registry. The report needs to have a current site plan showing all the structures with dates of construction, calling out historic buildings and whether there was ever a Master Plan for the Hotel. Staff continued through the report noting items that needed to be completed and returned to staff for review. 16. Advisor Bricker explained what the Hotel would have to do to qualify for the National Register. 17. Chairman Millis asked if the criteria for the National Register was a separate issue. Planning Manager Christine di Iorio stated it requires the filling out of papers and submitting them to the State office, but the reasons as to why it should be submitted could be done at this level. The report needs to give a conceptual and significant discussion of the Resort, specifically the: Casitas.. 18. There being no further discussion, it was moved and seconded by Commissioners Wright/DeMersman to adopt Minute Motion 97-011 recommending approval of the Mellon Report with the addition of the eight recommendations made by staff, documenting and adding the Casitas and the San Vincente Courtyard area to the report and returned for Commission approval.

It was moved and seconded by Commissioners DeMersman%Puente that a condition be added that if the trenching or digging go below ten feet, a monitor will be present. Unanimously approved. VI. CORRESPONDENCE AND WRITTEN MATERIAL: None VII COMMISSIONER ITEMS A. Commissioner DeMersman gave a presentation on the Historic House Museums, specifically the Molly Brown, located in Denver, Colorado. VIII.

Its low-pitched red tile roof is new (although original would have been similar). It has stucco walls and still retains vertical wood pattern within gables. Two short wings project from either end of house, making original open patio at front center a shallow covered porch. Porch wall has original wood door at left, but rest of wall has been replaced with double sliding glass door and additional door -size glass panel (three panels in all). North wing holds a single sash window, and south wing holds double sliding glass door in place of original wooden garage doors. North facing wall of original garage also holds a double sliding glass door. At back of roof is a large air conditioning vent, and at center a long narrow square vent coming out of original chimney. At north end of property is a north -south configured garage that does not appear to be original. The garage is of stucco with red tile rood, open eaves, and vertical boards at gable ends. It has sliding glass doors at front, a single door at back, and metal shed attached at back. House is surrounded by a low block fence, and has trees and vegetation in yard at north end. 'P3b.

An T' shaped tract house, the residence is in good condition and well maintained. It features a low-pitched red tile roof, stucco walls, and dark stained wood within the gables. At least one window (at rear) is of a newer metal type. There are two chimney stacks: the southern one is newer, made of ceramic brick or tile, and h000ded; the northern one is more typical of the period, being of smooth stucco. The left wing has the typical vertical wood in gable pattern, but also sports an atypical large wood beam beneath with supports at either side, which is above a large window. At least one other house (51-835 Diaz) has this left wing wall pattern. It is very unlikely that the right wing still holds the original garage, as the area is enclosed with tall bushes and the current driveway is at the left (south) of the house. A modern stucco wall and tall vegetation surround the house. *P3b. Resources Attributes: (List attributes and codes) HP2. Single Family Property *P4.

The project site will be used as a temporary stockpile location for excess dirt that is excavated from the road widening activities associated with the Adams Street improvements from Avenue 48 north 1,000 feet. This investigation was required due to the area having a very high sensitivity for archaeological sites. Jim Brock, of Archaeological Advisory Group, conducted the investigation. The stockpile site is 3.2 acres in size and rectilinear shaped, as depicted on Page 3 of the AAG report. The elevation of the stockpile site ranges from 46 to 57 feet above mean sea level (msl)• It is probable that this area was below the water line of the ancient Lake Cahuillas, however, it would have been above the water level during the last few inundations of the Lake. It is commonly agreed that there were four inundations during that last two thousand years, with the final stand occurring between A.D. 1430 and 1580, with a high point of 42 feet above msl. Thus, it is probable that the propsed stockpile location would have been very near the shoreline during the last stand and very likely to have cultural deposits. (�Y�i�b�Il�Pil There were no prehistoric or historic materials observed during the field reconnaissance survey. However, the AAG report recommends that monitoring of ..J ; 032 grubbing and site preparation of the stockpile site be conducted due to the "high potential of the area to yield prehistoric material." The possibility of buried cultural resources can not be ruled out because of the sensitivity of the immediate area and the numerous recorded archaeological and historical sites within a one mile radius of the project site.

An archaeological records search indicated that the study area had not been previously surveyed for cultural resources. The study area is in a region of very high sensitivity for prehistoric archaeological resources. The field reconnaissance conducted for the project was negative. No new archaeological or historical sites were discovered. Archaeological monitoring of grubbing and any disturbance of the natural ground surface during stockpiling is recommended due to the high potential of the area to yield prehistoric material. INTRODUCTION This report presents a cultural resources assessment for a proposed 3.2-acre soil stockpile area located on the north side of Avenue 48 between Jefferson Street and the La Quinta Emergency Evacuation Channel in the City of La Quinta, California (Figures 1 through 4). The study comprised the review of a recent records search and archival research that covered the area, along with a field reconnaissance of the property. It was conducted by Archaeological Advisory Group for the Korve Engineering. The soil to be stockpiled on the property will be derived from the Adams Street widening project located three-quarters of a mile to the west of the study area. The: cultural resources from the Adams Street project are addressed in a separate study (Brock 1997a). The records search and archival information used in this study were originally developed for the Avenue 48 extension project between Jefferson and the Emergency Evacuation Channel. A separate cultural resources study was also prepared for that project (Brock 1997b). The study was undertaken in order to comply with the cultural resource requirements of the City of La Quinta. These are intended to fulfill those aspects of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (as amended) which pertain to the management of cultural resources that may be impacted by development projects sponsored by state or local government agencies, or by private developments requiring a discretionarypermit or license. This report was prepared in accordance with the recommended contents and format described in the State's Preservation Planning Bulletin Number 4(a) (California Department of Parks and Recreation 1989). The Principal Investigator and sole researcher for this study was James Brock.

SETTING Location and Environmental Setting The study area is located in the City of La Quinta, in the Coachella Valley area of Riverside County, California (Figures 1 and 2). The proposed stockpile site is shaped like a truncated rectangle. It is located on the north side of Avenue 48 between the La Quinta Emergency Evacuation Channel and Jefferson Street. Avenue 48 is currently a dirt road that will be upgraded in conjunction with the Adams Street widening project. The long axis of the stockpile area is aligned northwest to southeast. The southern border of the long axis is approximately 600 while the northern border is 800 feet. The width is 200 feet. The total area of the subject property is approximately 3.2 acres. The boundaries of the proposed right-of-way are presently undelineated in the field, although the southern boundary will comprise the right-of-way for the Avenue 48 extension. The study area falls primarily within the southwest quarter of the southeast quarter of the southeast quarter of Section 29, Township 5 South, Range 7 East, SBBM. This area is located on the USGS 7.5' La Quinta, California topographic quadrangle (Figure 2). The study area is located amidst low, rolling and semi -stable sand dunes typical of the floor of the central Coachella Valley. Native vegetation comprises a Creosote Scrub community, with scattered creosotes (Larrea tridentata), mesquite (Prosopis juliflora), burrobush (Ambrosia dumosa) and other stickery scrubs (including Dicoria canescens and Schismus barbatus ). Animal species typically encountered in the area include, pocket mouse sp., scorpions, Western Shovel -nosed Snake, Sidewinder, Desert Iguana, Side -blotched Lizard, Loggerhead Shrike, Mourning Dove, Say's Phobe, Gambel's Quail, Common Raven, Anna's Hummingbird, Red-tailed Hawk, and American Kestrel. Study area elevations range from approximately 46 to 57 feet msl. The soil is a light gray - tan blow sand. The nearest natural source of water is the Whitewater River three-quarters of a mile to the north. The study area would have been submerged by ancient prehistoric fillings of the ancient Lake Cahuilla. Hall and Moffitt (1995:7-8) note that the study area would have been a few meters above the northwestern shoreline of the ancient lake during its last few fillings. It is believed that there have been at least four lacustral intervals in the last two millennia (Waters 1983). The final stand of Lake Cahuilla is estimated'. to have been at about 42 feet (12.8 meters) msl. This has been dated loosely to the range: of A.D. 1430 to 1580 (Waters 1983:384). The study area falls within the Low Desert climatic zone. This is the driest, warmest, and sunniest of the state's climates --it generally averages less than 5 inches of precipitation annually and has a mean maximum temperature in July that exceeds 1000 (Bailley 1966:42). Cultural Setting Culture History While the ethnography of the region of the study area is fairly well understood, the prehistory of the area is poorly understood. The sequence of prehistoric habitation 5 039 presented here is based primarily on the concordance of sequences presented by Warren (1984:409-430). This chronology is intended to apply to the desert region of southern California in general. Early Hunting Period This period, sometimes referred to as the "Lake Mojave Period," represents the earliest phase of human occupation in southern California. It began by at least 10,000 B.C. and lasted until around 5000 B.C. This period is characterized by the hunting of larger game animals using spears and articulated spear -throwing devices termed "atlatls." Milling stones typically are not present. Artifacts generally consist of items such as fluted points, crescents, specialized scrapers, leaf -shaped knives, drills, and choppers/hammerstones. These old sites tend to occur along Pleistocene lake shorelines in the Mojave Desert, rather than in the Coachella Valley. Pinto Period The Pinto Period dates from around 5000 to 2000 B.C. This period corresponds roughly to the Millingstone Horizon in the coastal area of the state and has many characteristics in common with it. Although desert and coastal peoples shared cultural traits during this period, desert peoples probably did not have the same dependence on milling stones as coastal peoples. Seed grinding does not appear to be an important economic activity as yet to the desert peoples of this period, but the presence of flat slab and occasionally shallow - basin metates along with manos, indicates the growing importance that plant seed resources were beginning to have. Presumably these peoples were still maintaining a large and small game hunting and vegetal gathering economy during this period. Pinto points, as defined by Campbell and Campbell (1935), are the distinctive lithics of this period. These are usually found in association with heavy -keeled scrapers and milling stones. Gypsum Period The Gypsum Period is believed to date from around 2000 B.C. to about A.D. 500. This very roughly corresponds with the Intermediate Period in the coastal areas of southern California. Again, the primary artifacts indicating this period are projectile points (Humbolt series, Gypsum Cave, And Elko series). Manos and metates become more common and the mortar and pestle come into use --indicating a developing reliance upon fleshier seed foods such as mesquite pods and acorns. The presence of Haliotis and Olivella shell beads on sites of this period provide the earliest evidence for contacts between the desert peoples and the coastal inhabitants (Warren 1984:419). Saratoga Springs Period The Saratoga Springs Period lasts from about A.D. 500 to 1200 and is characterized by strong regional developments. The southern desert region, in which the Coachella Valley lies, deviates from the rest of the desert region due to heavy cultural influence by the Hakataya, a lower Colorado River group. The Hakataya influence brings drastic technological change to the peoples of this region. Buffware and Brownware pottery, made using the paddle and anvil technique, are introduced and reliance on the bow and arrow increases which leads to the appearance of new projectile point types called Cottonwood Triangular and Desert Side -notched. Milling stones, including manos, metates, pestles, and mortars are present in this time period. The Pinto, Gypsum, and Saratoga Springs periods are sometimes collectively referred to as the Archaic Period. Late Prehistoric/Ethnographic Period The bow and arrow replaces the atlatl during the Late Prehistoric (Late Horizon) occupation of the region as exemplified by the appearance of new projectile point types called Cottonwood Triangular and Desert Side -notched. The Hakataya influence, represented by brownwares and buffwares continues. The Desert Cahuilla are the people that are historically identified with the region of the study area. It is likely that this group has been in the region for at least the last 1000 years. The Cahuilla remained largely undisturbed by Hispanic and American intrusion up until the establishment of the Southern Pacific Railroad through the region in the later half of the 19th century. The railroad stimulated a desire by Americans for Cahuilla lands. In response to this, President Ulysses S. Grant began allotting Cahuilla lands in 1875 to give to American settlers and removed the Cahuilla to government reservations. Ten reservations were created that affected the Cahuilla; of these four are in the Coachella Valley. This late contact resulted in our gaining a greater understanding of this society than most native cultures of California. Detailed accounts of Cahuilla lifeways can be found, for in- stance, in Bean (1972, 1978), Strong (1929), Hooper (1920), and Kroeber (1908). Two excellent ethnobotanical studies also exist for the Cahuilla (Barrows 1900, Bean and Saubel 1972). An archaeological study of prehistoric Cahuilla adaptation to the desiccation of ancient Lake Cahuilla (the remains of which are now the Salton Sea) has also been done (Wilke 1978). Previous Archaeological Research/Archival Research The archaeological records search conducted for the Avenue 48 extension project (Brock 1997b) at the Eastern Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) at U.C. Riverside on December 17, 1996 provides sufficient current coverage for this study. No new records search was conducted. The records search indicated that the study area had not been previously surveyed for cultural resources. The study area is in a vicinity of high archaeological sensitivity. Seventeen previously recorded sites are present within a one-half mile radius of the study area. Of these, 11 are prehistoric habitation sites of various sizes, typically containing pottery, chipped and ground stone, bone, charcoal, and thermally -affected rock,. Of the other 6 sites, one is a prehistoric pottery scatter, one is a prehistoric pottery scatter associated with a historic dump, two represent historic homesteads, one is a dirt road, and one is a historic refuse deposit. With the possible exception of site CA-RIV-5832, all of the prehistoric sites appear to be relatively recent in date (post A.D. 500). An additional 25 sites are present in the region from one-half to one mile away from the study area. Approximately 60 percent of the land within a one-half mile radius of the study area has been previously surveyed for cultural resources. Of note, the areas immediately west, north, and east of the study area have not been surveyed and have a very high likelihood of containing archaeological deposits. - o 041 Historic maps examined during the records search included U.S. General Land Office plat maps from the second half of the 19th century, the 1941 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Toro Peak 1:62,500 map (Figure 5), and the U.S.G.S. 1959 Palm Desert 1:62,500 map. The General Land Office plat maps showed no cultural activity in the study area last century. The 1941 Toro Peak map shows a dirt road running just to the north of the present study area (Figure 5). The dirt road currently running along the south of the study area. (Avenue 48) is not present on this map. The 1959 Palm Desert map indicates that the present alignment of Jefferson Street had been established by that time. In addition to the records search archival research was conducted at the BLM office in Riverside and the Rivera Library at U.C. Riverside. Of note, the BLM research indicated that the study area was not part of government homestead lands but rather part of a 5291.44-acre railroad grant patent, which included all of Section 29, that dated to June 30, 1905 (BLM Serial File No. 89). The railroad sold off portions of Section 29 to small-scale farmers early in this century. As a further step in the research, the following "heritage property" registers had been previously checked for these tracts: The National Register of Historic Places (American Association for State and Local History 1991), California Historical Landmarks (California Department of Parks and Recreation 1990), and California Inventory of Historic Places (California Department of Parks and Recreation 1976). Additional registers were: checked during the records search at UC Riverside. No historical resources listed in these publications were found to be specific to the study area environs. The records search and background research indicated that the study area is in a location that is highly sensitive for prehistoric and moderately sensitive for historical resources. RESEARCH DESIGN Because of the limited nature of this project a formal research design was not prepared. METHODS/FIELDWORK DETAILS The fieldwork for this study was conducted on May 2, 1997 by James Brock. The reconnaissance required two hours to complete. The entire property was walked over in systematic northeast to southwest transects averaging three meters apart. The walkover was initiated at the southern corner of the study and ended at the northern corner. Ground surface visibility was good (approx. 95%). No adverse conditions restricted the survey. Some modern refuse is present, particularly along the southern boundary of the study area (presently a dirt road). In accordance with State Historic Preservation Office guidelines, all cultural materials, structures, features, and objects over 45 years in age were considered for potential cultural resource value. FINDINGS No prehistoric or historic cultural resources were observed on the study area.

While no significant cultural resources were observed during the walkover field reconnaissance of the property, the possibility of buried prehistoric (or historical) resources can not be ruled out considering the sensitivity of the area. MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS It is possible that as yet unidentified (buried) resources could exist on the study area. It is therefore recommended that an archaeological monitor be present on the property during scarification, or rough grading, prior to the placement of fill material on the property in order to ensure that any archaeological resources encountered will be adequately investigated/evaluated upon their discovery. It should be noted that the fill material to be placed on the propperty will probably contain cultural material originating at site CA-RIV-4754. This should be noted in the monitoring report and in the future update of the archaeological site record form for CA-:RIV-4754.

[•�T�i:(tII�lII�I�Zi As part of the continuing public street improvements along Avenue 48 and Adams Street, the City of La Quinta contracted with Archaeological Advisory Group to conduct a Phase I (records search and field survey) for the right-of-way along the east side of Adams Street, north of Avenue 48 for 1,000 feet. The project area is 1,000 x 55 feet or 1.26 acres in size. The City is planning to widen Adams Street in the project area. It was noted that the study area had been previously surveyed in 1992, by the Archaeological Research Unit of the University of California, at Riverside (UCR) for a project known as "La Quinta Center". This project was never approved for development. However, during the 1992 survey there were 13 prehistoric and/or historic archaeological sites recorded. One of these sites, CA-RIV-4754, is located in the Adams Street widening project area. This site was described as a light scatter of faunal bone material and brownware pottery on the dune surface. Midden was observed at the road cut along the east side of Adams Street, just north of Avenue 48. Radiocarbon dates from the 1992 investigation raged from A.D. 1280 to 1400, indicating that habitation of the immediate area may have been during the third of four documented Iacustral periods of Lake Cahuilla. The project site was part of a railroad grant patent in 1905, that included all of Section 29. No homesteads are recorded for Section 29. The project area is within an area of high archaeological sensitivity as there are approximately 52 recorded archaeological sites within a one mile radius. CA-RIV-4754 is located near the top of a dune that extends approximately 95 meters norl:h-south along the study area. A distinctive midden runs through the site and is visible in the escarpment that was created when Adams Street was originally constructed to Avenue 48 in the late 1980's. The midden is thought to extend east -west for about 5 to 10 meters, and is between 10 and 40 centimeters in thickness at a depth ranging from 60 to 100 centimeters from the surface of the dune. The color photographs on Page 11 of the AAG report clearly show the midden profile. A variety of cultural material is visible in the midden profile which includes pottery, faunal bone, chipped stone, fire affected rock (FAR), and charcoal. A hearth is seen northern area. The AAG report has determined that the integrity of the midden is excellent and is the only known midden to be found in the City of La Quinta. There is evidence of site disturbance from "relic" hunters as described in the report. The report discusses the research potential of the site and the site's ability to answer several research questions pertaining to chronology, subsistence, patterns of exchange, and settlement patterns. A call for the preparation of a formal research design prior to further work on the site is made in the report. SITE EVALUATION: CA-RIV-4754 is thought to qualify as a significant archaeological resource under CEQA because it the only known example of a Late Prehistoric midden deposit and has the potential to address important research questions. The remaining portion of the site which is a buried deposit has excellent integrity. DISCUSSION: The site will be destroyed by the projected widening activities for Adams Street. There are no opportunities for avoidance or preservation of the site. a Phase III data recovery program is the only feasible alternative to mitigate the impacts to the site. This data recovery program will consist of excavation (hand -dug units and trenching by backhoe), analysis, and report preparation. Monitoring of project -related grading and trenching is recommended. The AAG report discusses details of the recommended treatment program. Staff has reviewed the report for consistency with the ARMR report format. The report complies with this required format. Staff agrees with the conclusion and recommendations described in the report, and has no issues of concern.

An archaeological records search indicated that the study area had been previously surve ed for cultural resources with positive results. One prehistoric site, CZA-RIV-4754, a substantial buried midden deposit had been previously recorded on the study area. The study area is in a region of very high sensitivity for prehistoric archaeological resources and moderate sensitivity for historic archaeological resources. The field reconnaissance conducted for the project confirmed the presence of the midden deposit (CA-RIV-4754). No new archaeological or historical sites were discovered. Archival research indicated that the study area had never been homesteaded but had been part of a large railroad grant. CA-RIV-4754 appears to be the only Late Period midden deposit known in U Quinta. The integrity of the remaining portion of the site appears to be excellent and the site has the potential to address numerous research questions. This site should qualify as unique and/or significant under either the California Environmental Quality Act (Appendix ) or Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Given the time constraints of the pro ect, Phase III data recovery is recommended for CA-RIV-4754 if impacts to t�e resource cannot be avoided. After data recovery archaeological monitoring of rough grading and trenching is recommended due to the high potential of the area to yield prehistoric material. INTRODUCTION This reports presents a Phase I (survey -level) cultural resources assessment for the planned widening of Adams Street from its intersection with Avenue 48 to 1000 feet north of the intersection. This is in the City of La Quinta, California (Figures 1 through 4). The study comprised a records search and field reconnaissance of the property, along with limited archival research. It was conducted by Archaeological Advisory Group for Korve Engineering. The study was undertaken in order to comply with the cultural resource requirements of the City of La Quinta. These are intended to fulfill those aspects of the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970 (as amended) which pertain to the management of cultural resources that may be impacted by development projects sponsored by state or local government agencies, or by private developments requiring a discretionary permit or license. This report was prepared in accordance with the recommended contents and format described in the State s Preservation Planning Bulletin Number 4(a) (California Department of Parks and Recreation 1989). .1�'IJ, 052 1 0 MILES 10 0 KILOMETERS 15 Id pnR vex Yl III �bnc - MYO _ �f:,��„+ti l �� <' • y.

His qualifications are given in Appendix 1. Field notes and other material ppeertaining to this study are on file with Archaeological Advisory Group (AAG Job No. 970408). No artifacts were collected during the study. SETTING Location and Environmental Setting The study area is located in the City of La Quinta, in the Coachella Valley area of Riverside County, California (Figures 1 and 2). The proposed right-of-way for the Adams Street widening is rectilinear. The study area consists of a 1000 by 55 foot corridor that comprises the eastern shoulder of Adams Street north from its intersection with Avenue 48. The total area of the subject property is only 1.26 acres. The western border of the study area is the eastern edge of pavement of the present Adams Street. Southern boundary is Avenue 48 (presently a dirt road). The eastern and northern borders are undelineated in the field. The Adams Street widening project falls within the extreme southwestern comer of Section 29 of Township 5 South, Range 7 East, SBBM. This area is located on the USGS 7.5' La Quinta, California topographic quadrangle (Figure 2). The study area is located amidst rolling and semi -stable sand dunes typical of the floor of the central Coachella Valley. A large dune runs north -south in the central portion of the study area. This was been truncated by the original construction of Adams Street in the 1980s so there is an escarpment now along the western side of the dune. Soil comprises a gray -tan blow sand that ranges from loose to well compacted. Study area elevations ran&e from approximately 55 to 78.5 feet msl. The nearest natural source of water is the Whrtewater River three-quarters of a mile to the north. The study area would have been submerged by prehistoric fillings of the ancient Lake Cahuilla. The study area would have been a few meters above the northwestern shoreline of the ancient lake during its last few fillings. It is believed that there have been at least Your lacustral intervals in the last two millennia (Waters 1983). The final stand of Lake Cahuilla is estimated to have been at about 42 feet (12.8 meters) msl. This has been dated loosely to the range of A.D. 1430 to 1580 (Waters 1983:384). Native vegetation comprises a Creosote Scrub community, with croesotes (Lanea tridentata), mesquite (Prosopis julijlora), burrobush (Ambrosia dumosa) and other stickery scrubs (including Dicoria canescens and Schismus barbatus ). Animal species ically encountered in the area include pocket mouse, scorpions, Western Shovel-nosedinake, Sidewinder, Desert Iguana, Side -blotched Lizard, Loggerhead Shrike, Mourning Dove, Say's Phobe, Gambel's Quail, Common Raven, Anna's Hummingbird, Red-tailed Hawk, and American Kestrel. The study area falls within the Low Desert climatic zone. This is the driest, warmest, and sunniest of the state's climates --it generally averages less than 5 inches of precipitation annually and has a mean maximum temperature in July that exceeds 1000 (Bailey 1966:42). I-;., 056 Cultural Setting Culture History While the ethnography of the region of the study area is fairly well understood, the prehistory of the area is poorly understood. The sequence of prehistoric habitation presented here is based primarily on the concordance of sequences presented by Warren (1984:409-430). This chronology is intended to apply to the desert region of southern California in general. Early Hunting Period This period, sometimes referred to as the "Lake Mojave Period," represents the earliest phase of human occupation in southern California. it began by at least 10,000 B.C. and lasted until around 5000 B.C. This period is characterized by the hunting of larger game animals using spears and articulated spear -throwing devices termed "atlatls." Milling stones typically are not present. Artifacts generally consist of items such as fluted points, crescents, sj)ecialized scrapers, leaf -shaped knives, drills, and choppers/hammerstones. These old sites tend to occur along Pleistocene lake shorelines in the Mojave Desert, rather than in the Coachella Valley. Pinto Period The Pinto Period dates from around 5000 to 2000 B.C. This period corresponds roughly to the Millingstone Horizon in the coastal area of the state and has many characteristics in common with it. Although desert and coastal peoples shared cultural traits during this period, desert peoples probably did not have the same dependence on milling stones as coastal peoples. Seed grinding does not appear to be an important economic activity as yet to the desert peoples of this period, but the presence of flat slab and occasionally s allow - basin metates along with manos, indicates the growing importance that plant seed resources were beginning to have. Presumably these peoples were still maintaining a large and small game hunting and vegr;tal athering economy during this period. Pinto points, as defined by Campbell and Campbell f1935), are the distinctive lithics of this period. These are usually found in association with heavy -keeled scrapers and milling stones. Gypsum Period The Gypsum Period is believed to date from around 2000 B.C. to about A.D. 500. This very roughly corresponds with the Intermediate Period in the coastal areas of southern California. Again, the primary artifacts indicating this period are projectile points (Humbolt series, Gypsum Cave, And Elko series). Manos and metates become more common and the mortar and pestle come into use --indicating a developping reliance upon fleshier seed foods such as mesquite pods and acorns. The presence of Haliotis and Olivella shell beads on sites of this period provide the earliest evidence for contacts between the desert peoples and the coastal inhabitants (Warren 1984:419). Saratoga Springs Period The Saratoga Springs Period lasts from about A.D. 500 to 1200 and is characterized by strong regional developments. The southern desert region, in which the Coachella Valley lies, deviates from the rest of the desert region due to heavy cultural influence by the Hakataya, a lower Colorado River group. The Hakataya influence brings results in diffusion of buffware and brownware pottery types, made using the paddle and anvil technique, from the Colorado River area to the Coachella Valley by about A.D. 900. The 6 057 bow and arrow is introduced in this period as evidenced by the smaller Rose Spring and Eastgate styles of projectile points. Milling stones, including manos, metates, pestles, and mortars are present in this time period. Late Prehistoric/Ethnographic Period The bow and arrow replaces the atlatl during the Late Prehistoric (Late Horizon) occupation of the region as exemplified by the appearance of new projectile point types called Cottonwood Triangular and Desert Side -notched. The Hakataya influence, represented by brownwares and buffwares continues. The Desert Cahuilla are the people that are historically identified with the region of the study area. It is likely that this group has been in the region for at least the last 1000 years. The Cahuilla remained largely undisturbed by Hispanic and American intrusion up until the establishment of the Southern Pacific Railroad through the region in the later half of the 19th century. The railroad stimulated a desire by Americans for Cahuilla lands. In response to this, President Ulysses S. Grant began allotting Cahuilla lands in 1875 to give to American settlers and removed the Cahuilla to government reservations. Ten reservations were created that affected the Cahuilla; of these four are in the Coachella Valley. This late contact resulted in our gaining a greater understanding of this society than most native cultures of California. Detailed accounts of Cahuilla lifeways can be found, for in- stance, in Bean (1972, 1978), Strong (1929), Hooper (1920), and Kroeber (1908). Two excellent ethnobotanical studies also exist for the Cahuilla (Barrows 1900, Bean and Saubel 1972). An archaeological study of prehistoric Cahuilla adaptation to the desiccation of ancient Lake Cahuilla (the remains of which are now the Salton Sea) has also been done (Wilke 1978). Previous Archaeological Research/Archival Research An archaeological records search for the subject property was conducted by the author at the Eastern Information Center of the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) at U.C. Riverside on April 30, 1997. The records search indicated that the study area had been previously surveyed for cultural resources as part of a now -abandoned project termed "La Quinta Center." The survey was conducted by the Archaeological Research Unit of U.C. Riverside in 1992 (Everson 1992a) and comprised the southwestern quarter of Section 29, an area considerably larger than the present study area (160 vs. 1.26 acres). The U.C. Riverside study located 13 prehistoric and/or historical archaeological sites on their study area and recommended a Phase 11 testing program to further evaluate the sites (ibid.). One site that was located by U.C. Riverside, CA-RIV-4754, is located in the central north -south sand dune of the present study area. The site is described as follows on the site record form: Site consists of a light scatter of shell, fish bone, small mammal bone, and occasional brownware pottery atop dune formation. Midden can be seen in exposed road cut through dune [ibid.]. The fact that there is a midden deposit present is highly understated--midden deposits are extremely rare in the Coachella Valley. The report goes on to indicate that the site was impacted by the construction of Adams Street along its western side. They note the remaining deposit as measuring some 80 meters north -south by 30 meters east -west. Test excavation of the site is recommended [ibid.]. This site is discussed further below. 7 ri5 The records search further indicated that the study area is in a vicinity of high archaeological sensitivity. Twenty four previously recorded sites are present within a one- half mile radius of the study area. Of these, 11 are prehistoric habitation sites of various sizes, typically containingg pottery, chipped and ground stone, bone, charcoal, and thermally -affected rock. Of the other 13 sites, five relate to 20th century activity (building foundations, refuse deposits, road), two are combinations of prehistoric Pottery scatters and 20th century refuse, and six sites are listed as "pending." The "pending" sites are all within the Rancho La Quinta development to the south of the study area. The nature of these sites, or why they are listed as pending, is unknown. One site, CA-RIV-4753, a light prehistoric ceramics scatter is located just east, and outside of, the northern end of the study area. Approximately 30 additional sites are present in the region from one-half to one mile away from the study area. All of the prehistoric sites within the one-half mile radius apppear to be relatively recent in date (post A.D. 500). One site, CA-RIV-150, which is now destro ed, is listed as a village site. Two sites have had fairly recent major excavations conducted at them, CA-RIV-2196 (McCarthy 1990) and CA-RIV-3682 (Everson 1992). CA-RIV-2196, which is also now destroyed, was located immediately to the west of the study area on the western side of Adams Street. The site was investigated with 14 test units, along with backhoe trenching and monitoring. It was concluded that the site "served primarily as a base camp for the processing and consumption of fish caught along the shores of Lake Cahuilla..." (McCarthy 1990:32-33). There is no mention of any midden deposit being present. The site produced calibrated radiocarbon dates ranging from A.D. 1280 to 1400 (McCarthy 1990:32), indicating the occupation may have been during the third lacustral period of lake Cahuilla (as defined by Waters 1983), rather than the final period as noted by McCarthy. Approximately 90 percent of the lane' within a one-half mile radius of the study area has been previously surveyed for cultural resources. Historic maps examined during the records search included U.S. General Land Office plat maps from the second half of the 19th century, the 1941 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Toro Peak 1:62,500 map (Figure 5), and the U.S.G.S. 1959 Palm Desert 1:62,500 map. The General Land Office plat maps showed no cultural activity in the study area last century. The 1941 Toro Peak map shows a dirt road running east -west to the north of the present study area (Figure 5). This has been previously recorded as site CA-RIV-4755H. The dirt road currently running through the present study area is not present on this map. The present U.S.G.S. La Quinta topographic quadrangle (FiVre 2) indicates that neither Adams Street or Avenue 48 were extended into this vicinity at the time of the latest revision of the map (1980). In addition to the records search archival research was conducted at the BLM office in Riverside and the Rivera Library at U.C. Riverside. The BLM research indicated that the study area was not part of government homesteads lands but rather a part of a 5291.44-acre railroad grant patent, which included all of Section 29, that dated to June 30, 1905 (BLM Serial File No. 89). 8 i 13 14 4 ii 13 1 1' `"il 1fi 1 �`` r_. 24 1 11 .�..."

The scale is 1:62,500. 9 060 As a further step in the research, the following "heritage property" registers had been previously checked for these tracts: The National Register of Historic Places (American Association for State and Local History 1991), California Historical Landmarks (California Department of Parks and Recreation 1990), and California Inventory of Historic Places (California Department of Parks and Recreation 1976). Additional registers were checked during the records search at UC Riverside. No historical resources listed in these publications were found to be specific to the study area environs. The records search and background research indicated that the study area is in a location that is highly sensitive for prehistoric and moderately sensitive for historical resources. RESEARCH DESIGN Because of the limited nature of this project --a 1.26-acre survey --a formal research design was not prepared. Pertinent research questions are, however, considered below in the evaluation of the archaeological site (CA-RIV-4754) located in the study area. METHODS/FIELDWORK DETAILS The fieldwork for this study was conducted on April 29, 1997 by James Brock. Subsequent inspections of the property were conducted on April 31, 1997 (with Leslie Mauriquand, City of La Quinta) and on May 9, 1997. A total of four hours were spent by Mr. Brock on the survey of the property. The entire property was walked over in systematic transects averaging two to three meters apart. The walkover was initiated at the southern end of the study area and ended at the northern end. Ground surface visibility was good (95%). No adverse conditions restricted the survey. In accordance with State Historic Preservation Office guidelines, all cultural materials, structures, features, and objects over 45 years in age were considered for potential cultural resource value. No specimens were collected during the survey. FINDINGS One prehistoric archaeological site was located on the study area. This is a buried midden deposit, CA-RIV-4754, located near the top of the dune that runs north -south through the study area. This site is exposed in the escarpment formed when Adams Street was originally extended to Avenue 48 in the late 1980s. No cultural resource work was conducted on the site at that time dispite a major impact to the site. As noted above, the site was not recorded until a U.C. Riverside survey occurred for the proposed development of the southwestern quarter of Section 29 in 1992 (Everson 1992a). The site record form for the site is provided in Attachment A to this report. The AAG survey indicates that CA-RIV-4754 extends north -south 95 meters and east -west about 5 to 10 meters. This is longer and narrower than as recorded by U.C. Riverside. The site is clearly visible in the escarpment created by the road cut when Adams Street was built (Figure 6). The depth of the site below ground surface ranges from approximately 60 to 100 centimeters and the thickness of the midden ranges from approximately 10 to 40 centimeters. 10 -,..•., L, 061 r y J y �MiddenDeposit, i Figure 6. View of the exposed buried middcn deposit at CA-RIV-4754,looking southeast at Locus B. Figure 7. View of hearth feature and later concrete post footing at t.ocus A. 11 - . 062 There appears to be a northern locus and a southern locus. Both loci display dense cultural material in their exposed areas including: pottery, marine shell, bone (fish, mammal, and bird), chipped stone, thermally affected rock, and charcoal. Very little material was noted on the ground surface above the midden. The excellent integrity of the remaining portion of the site is exemplified in the northern area (Locus A), where a hearth feature is clearly visible in the stratigrapby at a depth below a 20th century concrete fence post footing (Figure 7). The U.C. Riverside study (Everson 1992a) indicated a surface component to the site. The presence of the concrete fence post footing well below the surface would indicate that prehistoric surface material is intrusive and not part of the primary site deposit. Also, it should be noted that relic hunters have been disturbing the site. The escarpment shows clear signs of recent cutting and small piles of collected artifacts are present. Fortunately the site is buried and only easily accessible at the escarpment. DISCUSSION/INTERPRETATION One archaeological site was located within the study area, CA-RIV-4754, a buried midden deposit. This site was the potential to address various research domains and specific research questions. Below are a sample of important research questions. A formal research design needs to be prepared prior to further work on the site. In terms of chronology, CA-RIV-4754 has demonstrated, well-provenie:nced carbon deposits (charcoal) suitable for radiocarbon dating. Most prehistoric sites in the vicinity lack suitable or sufficiently abundant carbon to allow for reliable dating. Radiocarbon dates from the site should be able to aid in the construction of the late prehistoric habitation sequence and in the study of the lacustral sequences of ancient Lake Cahuilla. They should also aid in the dating of diagnostic artifact types present. In the research domain of subsistence, CA-RIV-4754, comprising a midden deposit, has the best potential for providing a full range of faunal resources being exploited at a specif'c point in time. Other sites in the vicinity contain faunal material but not in as dense or as well-preserved a deposit. Also, carbonized seeds from the midden could provide evidence of early agricultural activities which are suspected to have occurred in the region but, as yet, lack archaeological evidence. Carbonized midden deposits have the best potential for providing the full range of floral resources being utilized. Reconstruction of ceramic vessel forms and the types of ground stone implements present could provide information on the types of resources being exploited by the site's inhabitants. Patterns of exchange should be evidenced in artifactual material from the site. Thin - sectioning of ceramics should help indicate the sources of clay utilized in pottery manufacture as well as indicate if vessels themselves were traded over any considerable distances. Ceramics and beads present could indicate trade relations with other groups (Colorado River or coastal California). Information on settlement patterns should be present in the information from the site. Data may present evidence of changing settlement patterns with the different lacustral episodes of Lake Cahuilla. 12 - ; 06 MANAGEMENT CONSIDERATIONS Site Evaluation Under Appendix K of CEQA an archaeological resource is significant if it meets one of the followin* criteria: (a) it is associated with an event or person of recognized significance in California or American history, or recognized scientific importance in prehistory; (b) it can provide information which is both of demonstrable public interest and useful in addressing scientifically consequential and reasonable archaeological research questions; (c) it has a special or particular quality such as oldest, best example, largest, or last surviving example of its kind; it is at least 100 years old and possesses substantial stratigraphic integrity; or (e) it involves important research questions that historical research has shown can be answered only with archaeological methods. Additional criteria of significance is found in eligibility for the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHP), which is based upon the criteria used for' Federal undertakings whereby resources are evaluated for their eligibility for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places: A. Association with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of history. B. Association with the lives of persons significant in our past. C. Embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction, or that represent the work of a master, or that possess high artistic values, or that represent a significant distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. D. Have yielded or may be likely to yield information important in history or prehistory. The one site located within the study area, CA-RIV-4754, is believed to qualify as significant under CEQA because it is the only known example of a particular type of site (Late Prehistoric midden deposit) and it has the potential to address meaningful and important research questions. While the site has been partially disturbed, the remaining portion, comprising a buried (sealed) deposit, has excellent integrity. Potential Effects The planned widening of Adams Street north of Avenue 48 will destroy the remaining portion of site CA-RIV-4754. Management Alternatives Preservation of CA-RIV-4754 is the preferred alternative. The site has research potential that could be used by future archaeologists who presumably will have more refined research techniques as well as greater fiscal resources. Discussions with City of La Quinta staff indicate that preservation of the site is not possible. Consequently, Phase II test excavation and/or Phase III data recovery are the only alternatives. 13 064 Recommendations Given the time constraints of the project and the apparent significance of the site, a Phase III data recovery program is the only reasonable alternative. The following scope of work/tasks are recommended: (1) data recovery excavation and (2) analysis/write-up of recovered data. A research design is to be prepared as a methodological guide document for the study. Task 1 should consist of the controlled excavation of the midden deposit. A backhoe is recommended for removal of the overburden which caps the midden deposit. After exposing the midden a minimum of 10 to 20 one -by -one meter excavation units, or their equivalent, should be dug to recover a large sample of the deposit. The units should be dug in arbitrary 10 centimeter levels or by cultural level and dry screened through one - eighth inch mesh shaker screens. Any features encountered should' be planned, photographed, and drawn. All units should be drawn in profile and photographed. Consultations with a geologist and a representative of the Native American community should occur during Task 1. Task 2 should consist of artifact/ecofact cataloging and analysis, feature and site evaluation, specialist studies, and the production of a professional -quality report on the project. Site forms should be updated and the artifacts/ecofacts should be prepared for curation. Upon completion of the data recovery program archaeological monitoring of rough grading and trenching is recommended for the Adams Street widening project due to the high potential of the area to yield prehistoric material.

This proposal, which, was published in the Federal Register on June 20, 1997 (see 62 FR 33707), revises the existing Standards for the five disciplines included in the last published version (1983) and adds Standards for seven other disciplines. This proposal also provides (for the first time) guidance on how to use and interpret the Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards. The introduction to this draft provides an explanation of the public policy purpose of the Standards and describes the process and the extensive consultation that led to this proposal. "The Secretary of the Interior's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards" are a part of the "Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation" whose preeminent function is to provide the Secretary's best guidance for historic preservation practice nationwide. Through the separate promulgation of regulations, meeting one or more of the Standards is often made a requirement. 'These proposed Standards may be of particular interest to you because of the Certified Local Government (CLG) program requirements for the local commission. The minimum number and type of "qualified professionals" that, to the extent available in the community, must be included on the CLG commission is determined by each State's CLG procedures. Pursuant to 36 CFR 61, "qualified professional" means an individual who meets one or more of the Standards. NPS recommends that CLGs use these proposed Standards as much as possible but ultimately that is a State and local decision.

ACTION: Proposed renaming of and revisions to "the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards." SUMMARY: The National Park Service (NPS) proposes to rename and revise "the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards" which are part of the larger "Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic: Preservation." The statutory authority for the Secretary's development of these can be found in sections 101(g), 101(h), 101(i), and 101(j)(2)(A) of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended (16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.). These Standards and Guidelines (including the Professional Qualification Standards) were published in the Federal Register in 1983 (48 FR 44716, September 29) as the Secretary's best guidance for historic preservation practice nationally. This remains their preeminent function. The Standards are renamed "the Secretary of the Interior's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards." This change reflects the fart that the Standards are designed to apply to each discipline as it is practiced in historic preservation: e.g., in the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, and treatment of historic properties. The proposed revisions update the standards for the five disciplines included in the 1983 publication and add standards for seven other disciplines mentioned in the National Historic Preservation Act as being important to historic preservation. The proposed revisions also provide (for the first time) published guidance on how to use and interpret the Standards. These revisions are necessary because the old professional qualification standards had become out-of-date, did not include many disciplines important in the practice of historic preservation, and provided no guidance on their use and interpretation. This absence of national guidance led to confusion and inconsistency in the application of the Standards by Federal, State, Tribal, and local government agencies and other organizations and individuals. The Standards are designed to be a tool to help recognize the minimum expertise generally necessary for performing professionally credible historic preservation work. The Standards are not designed to identify the best or ideal person for any position. The effective application of any of these national Standards will require the development of a detailed job description containing additional information to suit a particular situation and need. These Standards do not apply to "entry-level" applicants or to preeminent professionals in the field. Rather, they outline the minimum education and experience and products that together provide an assurance that the applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will be able to perform competently on the job and be respected within the larger historic preservation community. All responses to this notice will be summarized as part of the publication of the official issuance of the "Secretary's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards." All comments will also become a matter of public: record. DATES: Comments on this notice must be received by August 19, 1997 to be assured of consideration. ADDRESSES: Send comments to: Mr. Joe Wallis, Chief, Branch of State, Tribal, and Local Programs, Heritage Preservation Services, National Center for Cultural Resource Stewardship and Partnership Programs, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior, 1849 C Street, NW., Washington, DC 20240.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Table of Contents —Applying the Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards: Introduction Program Evolution/Current Changes Applicability Haw to Use the Historic Preservation Qualification Standards Questions and Answers Discipline and Historic Preservation Proficiencies Recommended Discipline Proficiencies Recommended Historic Preservation Proficiencies Historic Preservation Professional Qualification. Standards Archeology (A) Prehistoric Archeology (B) Historic Archeology Architectural History Conservation Cultural Anthropology Curation Engineering Folklore Historic Architecture Historic Landscape Architecture Historic Preservation Planning Historic Preservation History Sources of Additional Information Professional Organizations Introduction Background The identification, evaluation, protection, and preservation of America's important historic and cultural properties depends upon the participation of all citizens; however, certain decisions must involve individuals who meet nationally accepted professional standards in order to assure credibility in the practice of historic preservation at the Federal, State, and local levels, as well as in the private sector. The Secretary of the Interior is responsible for establishing standards for all programs under Departmental authority. In accordance with this responsibility, '"the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards" were developed by the National Park Service (NPS) 20 years ago to ensure that a consistent level of expertise would be applied nationally to the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, treatment, and interpretation of historic and archeological resources. The National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (Pub. L. 89-665) gave the Secretary authority to set criteria for State grants, surveys, and plans. The National Park Service; administratively required State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPOs) to maintain professionally qualified staff (in 1976), and to appoint qualified individuals as advisors to serve: on State Review Boards (in 1977:1. The professional qualification standards have not changed since then. The 1980 Amendments to the National Historic Preservation Act (Pub. L. 96-515) statutorily affirmed the previous regulatory requirement for professionally qualified staff. Congress also reiterated the regulation's requirement that State Review Boards include a majority of members qualified in one of the professional disciplines which met minimum Professional 0l Federal Register / Vol, 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices 33709 Qualification Standards defined in regulation in 36 CFR part 61 (Architecture, Architectural History, Prehistoric Archeology or Historic Archeology, and History). In addition, the 1980 amendments created the Certified Local Government (CLG) program to recognize the role of local governments in the national partnership, and stipulated that the CLG Review Commission membership needed to be adequate and qualified. The Congressional Committee Report for the 1980 amendments (H.R. Rept. 96- 1457) called for "professional bodies which can objectively evaluate the historic significance of properties and provide professional advice on historic preservation matters." Finally, States, local governments, Federal agencies, and the private sector often require that proposals from historic preservation contractors or work submitted by them meet these same professional practice Standards. How To use the Historic preservation professional qualification standards provides background and general information in a question and answer format about the three basic components of each Standard: academic or comparable training; professional experience; and products and activities that demonstrate proficiency in the field of historic preservation. Discipline and historic preservation proficiencies consists of a series of general proficiencies (knowledge, skills, and abilities) that are needed by historic preservation program applicants, employees, consultants, and advisors. The first set of proficiencies is related to disciplines; the second, to historic preservation. Following the standard for each discipline is guidance about meeting the standard for that specific discipline, including a list of some of the most common "closely related fields" within academic degree programs; information on documenting professional experience; and a list of typical products and activities that may be use d Qualification Standards" that follow are, in most instances, advisory in nature and may thus be used by anyone hiring personnel or consultants or appointing advisory boards or commissions. Because use of the Standards can help ensure appropriate, informed decisions about protecting and preserving our nation's historic and archeological resources, NPS strongly encourages their adoption and implementation. However, under well-defined circumstances discussed below, "the Secretary's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards" are requirements by statute and regulation. In those instances, a note is added at the end of the required Standard. First, the National Historic Preservation Act, Section 101., requires that a professionally qualified staff be appointed or employed by State Historic Preservation Offices. Indian tribes that have executed a Memorandum of Agreement with NPS and assumed responsibilities pursuant to Section 101(d) of the Act also must employ or consult with professionally qualified individuals in carrying out those responsibilities. The performance and supervision of Historic Preservation Fund grant -assisted work must be performed and/or supervised by professionally qualified staff and/or contractors. In accordance with 36 CFR part 61 and NPS policy, three of twelve disciplines are required for State program staff and for staff of Tribes with Section 101(d) status: History, Archeology, and Architectural History. States and Tribes with 101(d) status may propose an alternative minimum staff composition for NPS concurrence if their historic resources, needs, or circumstances would be better served or met. States and Tribes with 101(d) status are expected to obtain the services of other qualified professionals as needed for different types of resources. Second, section 101(b)(1)(B) and section 301(12) of the Act requires that a majority of State Review Board members be professionally qualified. As specified in 36 CFR pert 61, this majority must include, but need not be limited, to the required disciplines of History, Archeology, and Architectural History. One person may meet the Standards for more than one required discipline. Third, section lol(c)(1)(13) and section 301(13) of the Act requires that State programs encourage CLG Review Commissions to include individuals who are professionally qualified. to the extent that such individuals are 0 / ri 33710 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices available in the community. The State may specify the minimum number of Commission members that must meet the Standards and decide which, if any, of the disciplines listed in the Standards need to be represented on the Commission. An accompanying guidance section, Applying the Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards, has been prepared to assist the consistent application of the "Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards" when selecting an employee, consultant, or advisor. As such, the guidance provides additional information and recommendations, but never constitutes a requirement. How To Use the Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards There are three basic components of each Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standard: academic degrees or comparable training; professional experience; and products and activities that demonstrate proficiency in the field of historic preservation. A number of commonly asked questions about the design and content of the Standards, as well as their application and implementation, are answered below in order to assist anyone applying for a position or anyone charged with obtaining the services of a professional in the field of historic preservation. 1. Under what authority are these Standards developed? "The Secretary of the Interior's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards and Guidance" are part of the larger "Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and Historic Preservation." The statutory authority for the Secretary's development of these can be found in sections 101(g), 101(h), 101(i), and 101(j)(2)(A) of the National Historic Preservation Act, as amended. These Standards and Guidance (including the Professional Qualification Standards) were published in the Federal Register in 1983 as the Secretary's best guidance for historic preservation practice nationally. This remains their preeminent function.. 2. What about the requirements in Section 112 of the National Historic Preservation Act? Section 112 is not the statutory authority for the "Secretary of the Interior's Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards and Guidance" (see the preceding paragraph). Section 112 splits Federal agency requirements for meeting "professional standards" into two parts. Section 112(a)(1)(A) mandates that Federal "actions" meet professional standards; it is not directed at establishing professional qualification requirements. It is section 112(a)(1)(B) that requires the Federal Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to devise professional qualification requirements for Federal employees and contractors in seven disciplines. OPM is required by statute to consult with the National Park Service (NPS) and others in creating these requirements. When completed, NPS will offer the Professional Qualification Standards and Guidance as its best advice to OPM for their use. 3. Are the Standards regulatory or are they advisory? The Standards are not in and of themselves regulatory. A separate regulation or other official action which references or otherwise adopts part or all of them is necessary to give any force to any language in the Standards. In a number of instances, this has occurred. For example, the Standards for Rehabilitation are regulatory in the Federal Preservation Tax Incentives program through 36 CFR part 67. Likewise, the Professional Qualification Standards are regulatory for States, local historic preservation programs, and participating tribes through 36 CFR part 61. The guidance ("Academic Background" and "Documenting Professional Experience") accompanying the Professional Qualification Standards is intended to assist users in the application of the Standards; the guidance is not regulatory. 4. How were these Standards developed? Who was consulted? Consultation has been extensive over the four years of this project. The wide range of constituents that use the Standards dictates a broad consultation process, which, not surprisingly, results in widely varying opinions and recommendations. To date, NPS has consulted with: (1) Federal, tribal, State, and local government historic preservation programs as well as related organizations; (2) professional societies and organizations of professional societies; (3) academic programs in historic preservation and organizations of such programs; (4) individuals and companies in the private practice of historic preservation as well as related organizations; and, (5) individuals working in the public sector as well as organizations of such people. S. Why did the National Park Service choose the disciplines it did? These disciplines were selected because each is specifically mentioned in the National Historic Preservation Act. [See sections 112(a)(1)(A), 112(a)(1)(B), 201(a)(9), 301(12)(B), 301(13), and 401(c)(3).] 6. How are these Standards to be used? The Standards are designed to be a tool to help recognize the minimum expertise generally necessary for performing professionally credible historic preservation work. The Standards are not designed to identify the best or ideal person for any position or the preeminent practitioners in any discipline, nor are they developed to qualify apprentice or entry level workers. The Standards are designed to describe the typical expertise held by credible mid -level journeymen working in historic preservation. 7. Do the Standards apply to "entry level" or "technician" level positions? Although the work of "entry-level" or "technician -level" personnel is critical to the success of historic preservation projects, these professional levels are not addressed in the Secretary's Standards. The Standards apply only to the "journeyman" professional and define the minimum level of expertise necessary to provide reliable technical opinions relating to historic properties (without in-depth oversight or review by another professional in the discipline). 8. Do Federal agencies have to meet these Professional Qualification Standards? For 1?edeial employees and Federal contractors, the Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards are regulatory only if they are specifically adopted by: (1) The Federal Office of Personnel Management (OPM) pursuant to its responsibility under Section 112(a)(1)(B) of the Act; (2) a Federal agency in its own agency -wide regulations, requirements, or policy; or (3) a Federal agency as part of a program or project agreement with another party. 9. How are general Standards applied in specific situations? General standards are intended to define minimum professional qualifications for identifying, evaluating, registering, treating, and interpreting historic properties nationwide; however, the best historic preservation professional for a particular office, program, project, or property depends upon the situation. Different skills and expertise are needed for different geographical areas and resource types. In most cases where the Standards are applied. in hiring or contracting, job descriptions and qualifications will have to be tailored to specific situations and locations so that experience and training are relevant to the needs of the resources and the work to be done. Where there is a need for specialized expertise in a project, application of the Standards will necessarily focus upon specialized training and demonstrated experience and products. For example, a person may be highly skilled in restoring a 079 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices 33711 particular kind of resource (such as Standards are encouraged to adopt a particular discipline, there is no such national requirement.

When is "exceptional experience" o factor? In general, an applicant, employee, consultant, contractor, or advisor who does not possess a combination of education or training, experience, and products would not meet the Standards. However, in some cases, a person's experience and contributions have been so exceptional that he or she demonstrates the level of expertise that meets the Standards. In particular, this may apply in those situations where persons embarked upon their careers before recognized academic programs were established, and their education or training was thus attained in alternative ways. In such instances, exceptional experience would be substituted for an academic degree or other training. It is up to the organization with administrative oversight responsibility for the program or project to determine whether the individual meets the Standards. For example, in a program under the purview of 36 CFR part 61, the State Historic Preservation Office would request an exception from the National. Park Service for the person under consideration for a "professional" position on the State staff or Review Board. Otherwise, the organization doing the hiring or selecting of personnel would determine whether the individual meets the Standards. Discipline and Historic Preservation Proficiencies The Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards call for an understanding of the general principles, procedures, and practices in the discipline as they are applied to historic preservation. This type of expertise is necessary for historic preservation programs in which the employee, consultant, or advisor is expected to deal with a range of historic resources and issues. Proficiencies in the disciplines and in the practice of historic preservation are outlined below. Recommended Discipline Proficiencies The following discipline proficiencies (knowledge, skills, and abilities) should be possessed by applicants, employees, consultants, and advisors: • Knowledge of the history of the discipline. • Knowledge of current theories, principles, practices, methods, and techniques of the discipline. • Familiarity with diverse specializations within the discipline. • Skills in applying the discipline's techniques of practice, including critical analysis skills. • Understanding of the discipline's relationships with other disciplines and the ability to design and carry out interdisciplinary projects. • Understanding of complex research questions. • Ability to place a specific project in a broader context. • Knowledge of current scholarly research and its applicability to a given issue. • Familiarity with the process of rigorous professional peer review that occurs before work is published. Recommended Historic Preservation Proficiencies The following historic preservation proficiencies (knowledge, skills, and abilities) should be possessed by applicants, employees, consultants, and advisors: • Familiarity with the origins and development of the historic preservation movement. • Knowledge of the field of historic preservation as it is practiced in the United States, including its philosophies, theories, practices, laws, regulations, policies, and standards, and relationship to the discipline as a whole. • Ability to apply Federal and relevant State and local historic preservation laws, regulations, policies, and standards in the public and private sectors, including Federal, State, and local government agencies, and private organizations. • Ability to apply the appropriate sets) of the "Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation," and/or the National Register of Historic Places criteria. In consideration of the foregoing, the "Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualification Standards" are proposed to read as follows: Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Archeology (A) Prehistoric Archeology (B) Historic Archeology Architectural History Conservation Cultural Anthropology Curation Engineering Folklore Historic Architecture Historic Landscape Architecture Historic Preservation Planning Historic Preservation History Archeology; Historic. Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Archeology is the study of past human lifeways through the systematic observation, analysis, and protection of the material remains of human activities. Standard for Archeologist (A) Prehistoric The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Prehistoric Archeology, or a graduate degree in Archeology with a specialization in Prehistoric Archeology, or a graduate degree in a closely related field (see Academic Background for Archeology), PLUS a minimum of two and one-half (21/2) years of full-time professional experience in applying the theories, methods, and practices of Archeology that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of prehistoric archeological properties in the United States and its Territories (at least six months of experience must have been acquired in the performance of field and analytical activities under the supervision of a professional prehistoric archeologist, and one year of experience in the study of the archeological :resources of the prehistoric period must have been at a supervisory level); and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies inthe discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Archeologists). (B) Historical The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Historical Archeology, or a graduate degree in Archeology with a specialization in Historical Archeology, or a graduate degree in a closely related field (see Academic Background for Archeology), plus a minimum of two and one-half (21h) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Archeology that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation,registration, or treatment of historic archeological properties in the United States and its Territories (at least six months of experience must have been acquired in t; 081 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices 33713 the performance of field and analytical activities under the supervision of a professional Historical Archeologist, and one year of experience in the study of the archeological resources of the historic period must have been at a supervisory level); and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Archeologists). (Note: Pursuant to 36 CFR part 61, a person meeting this Standard (either Prehistoric or Historic Archeology) is required as part of the core staff for each State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and as part of each State Review Board. Expertise described by this standard is also needed for Tribal Preservation Office staff or consultants of tribes that have executed a Memorandum of Agreement to implement Section 301(d) of the National Historic Preservation Act It also may be needed for consultants hired with HPF grant funds and for members of Certified Local Government Commissions.) Archeology —Academic Background research. Additional specialized training and experience is also required for those specializing in, for example, underwater archeology, physical anthropology (human bones and burials), forensic archeology, or zooarcheology (non -human bones). In addition, archeologists typically specialize in the archeological resources of a particular time period, geographic region, resource type, or research subject. Applying the Standard for Archeologist —Documenting Professional Experience A professional archeologist typically has experience in field survey, site testing, site excavation, artifact identification and analysis, documents research, and report preparation. Supervised field experience as a graduate student may be counted as part of the overall 21/z year professional experience requirement. A Prehistoric Archeologist meeting this Standard would document one year of supervisory experience in the study Closely related fields: Anthropology, of prehistoric archeological sites; a with a specialization in Archeology, is Historical Archeologist would the typical degree discipline for document one year of supervisory archeologists practicing in the United experience in the study of sites of the States.

Some Historical the other specialty, for a total of 31/2 Archeology programs are housed in years of experience, with products and History, Public History, or American activities in both specializations. Studies Departments. For these degrees, a list of courses taken should be reviewed to determine if the program is equivalent to that typically provided for a degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Archeology, including course work in archeological methods and theory, archeology of a geographic region (e.g., North America), and the field school. Discipline specializations: The most prevalent specializations in Archeology include Historical Archeology or Prehistoric Archeology, i.e., the specialization in resources of either the prehistoric period or the historic period. These specializations necessarily require expertise in different types of sites and different sources of information about past human activities. For example, a prehistoric archeologist usually requires a knowledge of environmental sciences, while a historical archeologist needs to understand the techniques of archival Products and Activities. Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation may include: . Survey and excavation reports of cultural resource management or Section 106 (or other compliance) projects. These reports are typically called "grey literature;" they often have multiple authors and are usually produced in limited quantities by consulting firms. . National Register documentation resulting in property listings or Determinations of Eligibility. . Materials such as presentations, booklets, brochures, lesson plans, or videos that interpret the results of archeological investigation for the general public. . Publications including articles in professional journals, monographs, books, or chapters in edited books, related to the preservation of historic or archeological properties. . Presentations at regional, national, or international professional conferences related to the preservation of historic or archeological properties. . Professional service on boards or committees of regional, national, or international professional organizations concerned with the preservation of historic or archeological properties. . Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching Posts. This list is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it is not expected that all of these products and activities will need to be documented in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several of these products and. activities would be more typical. However, if the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the specializations, the majority of products and activities should reflect that specialization. Architectural History; ]Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Architectural History is the study of the development of building, practices through written records and design and the examination of structures, sites, and objects in order to determine their relationship to preceding, contemporary, and subsequent architecture and event. Standard for Architectural Historian (a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Architectural History or a closely related field of study (see Academic Background. for Architectural History), plus a minimum of two (2) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Architectural History that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Architectural Historians); or . * ` (b) An undergraduate degree in Architectural History or a closely n82 33714 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices related field of study (see Academic Background for Architectural History), plus a minimum of four (4) years of ful time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Architectural History that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrat the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Historians). (Note: Pursuant to 36 CFR part 61, a person meeting this Standard is required as part of the core staff for each State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and as part of each Slate Review Board. Expertise described by this standard is also needed for Tribal Preservation Office staff or consultants of tribes that have executed a Memorandum of Agreement to implement Section 101(d) of the National Historic Preservation Act. It also may be needed for consultants hired with HPF grant funds and for members of Certified Local Government Commissions.) Architectural History —Academic Background Closely related fields: Professional Architectural Historians typically receive their formal training through Architectural History, Art History, or Historic Preservation programs, which include course work in American Architectural History. Other fields of study may offer relevant training, provided that course work in American Architectural History is taken. These other fields may include American Studies, American Civilization, Architecture, Landscape Architecture, Urban and Regional Planning, American History, Historic Preservation, and Public History. Discipline specializations: Architectural Historians tend to be generalists, although specializations Within Architectural History are typically based on time periods (such as 18th century), on a particular architectural style (such as Georgian or vernacular), or a combination of these (such as plantation architecture in the antebellum South). Applying the Standard for Architectuml Historian —Documenting Professional Experience Products and Activities Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation." A professional Architectural Historian I- typically has expertise in research, survey, documentation, and evaluation, of architectural resources, including buildings, structures, objects, and districts. Documentation of such experience is desirable. Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary's Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation may include: e • Survey reports assessing the significance of historic properties. • Historic structure reports. • National Register documentation resulting in property listings or Determinations of Eligibility. • Documentation that meets HABS/ HAER standards for recording historic properties. • Publications, which might include articles in regional, national, or international professional journals, monographs, books, or chapters in edited books, related to the preservation of historic structures. • Presentations at regional, national, or international professional conferences related to the preservation of historic structures. • Professional service on boards or committees of regional, national, or international professional organizations concerned with the preservation of historic structures. • Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching posts. This list is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it should be understood that not all of these products and activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that specialization. Conservation; Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Conservation is the practice of prolonging the physical and aesthetic life of prehistoric and historic material culture through documentation, preventive care, treatment, and research. Standard for Conservator (a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Conservation or a graduate degree in a closely related field of study with a certificate in Conservation (see Academic Background for Conservation), plus a minimum of three (3) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Conservation that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation or treatment of objects associated with historic and prehistoric properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic Preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Conservators); or (b) An undergraduate degree in Art History, or Natural or Physical Science, or another closely related field to Conservation (see Academic Background for Conservation), with an additional (3) yews of full-time enrollment in an apprenticeship program equivalent to graduate studies in Conservation and supervised by a professional Conservator; plus a minimum of three (3) yeazs full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Conservation that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, or treatment of objects associated with historic and prehistoric properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic Preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Conservators). Conservation —Academic Background Closely related fields: Since Conservators tend to specialize in a Particular class of objects, closely related fields will be diverse, and could include Art, Art Conservation, Art History, Architecture, Historic Preservation, Museum Studies, Chemistry, Physics, Engineering (or a 'elated scientific field), Archeology, anthropology, or other fields related to he conservation specialization. If a :losely related field is being claimed, be degree in the closely related field hould be accompanied by a certificate a Conservation, or the completion of ourse work equivalent to that typically flared in graduate Conservation rograms. This course work should tclude examination, documentation, id treatment of objects; history and chnology of objects; and conservation :fence. In addition, such a program Could include the completion of a two- mester internship. Discipline specializations: ofessional conservators specialize in e treatment and maintenance of a '/p J Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices 33715 specific class of objects or materials, such as archeological artifacts, architectural elements or fragments, or collections, books, ceramics, glass, decorative arts, ethnographic objects, furniture, metals, paintings, paper, photographs, sculpture, and textiles. Some conservators have studied more than one specialty, and have accumulated experience which allows them to practice in several of these specialties (although they are often closely related, such as books, drawings, prints or paper; decorative arts and furniture; sculpture and archeological artifacts). In these cases, the time period that distinguishes the materials is often the specialty. Each of these specialties requires focused training and experience, since each represents unique problems which are not always necessarily shared with other materials or time periods. Hence, a professional conservator should be able to perform according to professional standards of practice within the claimed area of specialty and should be both capable and willing to recognize his or her limitations. The professional conservator, moreover, should be generally knowledgeable about the issues of other specialties and the benefit of effective communication among the specialties. A broad understanding of the general principles of the conservation discipline is paramount as well, particularly in the area of technological and philosophical concerns that govern the ethics of the profession. A note on Conservation education: Many professional Conservators received their training by serving apprenticeships with professional Conservators. For some time, however, graduate conservation programs have been established in academic institutions; these require an internship in recognition of the critical importance of hands-on training and experience in preparing students for professional practice. Applying the Standard for Conservator —Documenting Professional Experience A professional Conservator typically possesses specialized technical skills and has experience in the examination, analysis, documentation, treatment, and preventive care of a specific class, or classes, of objects. Products and Activities Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary's Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation may incdfo lu . A porte: lio of current and past conservation work, including written and photographic documentation. . Reports of examination, condition, or treatment of objects. .

Professional service on boards or committees of regional, national, or international professional organizations concerned with the conservation of objects. . Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching Posts. This list is not comprehensive. Futhennore, it should be understood that not all of these products and activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that specialization. Cultural Anthropology; Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Cultural anthropology is the description and analysis of cultural systems, which include systems of behaviors (economic, religious, social), values, ideologies, and social arrangements. Standard for Cultural Anthropologist traditional cultural properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Cultural Anthropologists); or * * * (b) An undergraduate degree in Anthropology or a closely related field (see Academic Background for Cultural Anthropology), with a specialization in Applied Cultural Anthropology, plus a minimum of four (4) years of hill -time professional experience (including at least twelve months of field work supervised by a professional Cultural Anthropologist) applying the theories, methods, and practices of Cultural Anthropology that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic, pre historic, or traditional cultural properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (See Documenting Professional Experience for Cultural Anthropologists). Cultural Anthropology —Academic Background (a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Applied Cultural Anthropology, or a closely related field (see Academic Background for Cultural Anthropology), plus a minimum of two (2) years of full-time professional experience (including at least six months of field work supervised by a professional Cultural Anthropologist) applying the theories, methods, and practices of Cultural Anthropology that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic, prehistoric, or Closely related fields: A degree in Anthropology with a specialization in Applied Cultural Anthropology is the typical degree discipline: for Cultural Anthropologists practicing in the United States. Closely related fields of study may include Sociology, Cultural Geography, Folklife, History, and American Studies. Discipline specializations: Specializations in this discipline include Applied Cultural Anthropology, and Social Anthropology (which may be considered the most closely related to Cultural Anthropology; some academic programs even combine them, referring to Sociocultural Anthropology). Departments of Anthropology typically providetrainingin Archeology,Physical Anthropology, Ethnography, and Sociocultural Anthropology, and they may offer Applied Anthropology concentrations in one or more of these fields. Professional Cultural Anthropologists tend to specialize geographically (such as in the Southwest United States, Micronesia or New England) or topically (such as Medical Anthropology or Urban Anthropology), or in working with particular cultural or linguistic groups (such as fishermen, Irish immigrants, or Northwest Coast Indians). 33716 Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices Applying the Standard for Cultural Anthropologist —Documenting Professional Experience A professional Cultural Anthropologist typically has experience in the use of ethnohistoric and ethnographic techniques, including participant observation field work among one or more contemporary ethnic groups. The typical Cultural Anthropologist would also have performed field survey to identify and assess ethnographic resources, which can include, in addition to historic and cultural places of value, environmental features and places that have symbolic and other cultural value for Native American and/or other ethnic communities. A Cultural Anthropologist engaged in substantial ethnographic field work should demonstrate professional experience in the relevant geographic area and/or among the New World peoples, immigrant, ethnic, or minority communities with whom they will work. Products and Activities Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary's Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation may include: • Ethnographic field studies and survey reports, oral histories, or social impact assessments. • National Register documentation of ethnographic resources or traditional cultural properties resulting in property listings or Determinations of Eligibility. • Publications, which might include articles in regional, national, or international professional journals, monographs, books, or chapters in edited books, related to the documentation and preservation of historic and archeological resources, and/or traditional cultural properties. • Presentations at regional, national, or international professional conferences, symposia, workshops or exhibits related to the documentation. and preservation of historic and archeological resources, and/or traditional cultural properties. • Professional service on boards or committees or regional, national, or international professional organizations concerned with the documentation and preservation of historic and archeological resources. • Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching posts. This list is not comprehensive. Futhermore, it should be understood that not all of these products and activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that specialization. Curation; Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Curation is the practice of documenting, managing, preserving, and interpreting museum collections according to professional museum and archival practices. Standard for Curator (a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a graduate degree in Museum Studies or a closely related field of study (see Academic Background for Curation), Plus a minimum of two (2) years of full- time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Curation that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification, evaluation, documentation, preventive care, or interpretation of collections associated with historic and prehistoric properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Curators); or * (b) An undergraduate degree in Museum Studies or a closely related field of study (see Academic Background for Curation), plus a minimum of four (4) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Curation that enables professional judgments to be made about the identification; evaluation, documentation, preventive care, or interpretation of collections associated with historic and prehistoric properties in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Curator). Curation—Academic Background Closely related fields: A degree program called Museum Studies in one academic institution might be called Museum Science or Museology in another institution. Since Curators often specialize in particular disciplines, those fields of study would be relevant provided that theoretical as well as hands-on training was also obtained in museum methods and techniques, including collections care and management. Examples of relevant fields could include American Studies, Anthropology, Archeology, Art History, Archival or Library Science, History, Biology, Botany, Chemistry, Physics, Engineering, Geology, Zoology, and other similar fields of study, depending upon, the nature of the collections to be curated. Discipline specializations: Professional Curators tend to be specialists in a particular academic discipline relevant to the collections held by their institution or museum, which could include, for example, 19th- century Hudson Valley School paintings, Southwest Pueblo pottery, Civil War military uniforms, site - specific archeological materials, or natural history specimens. Applying the Standard for Curator — Documenting Professional Experience A professional Curator typically has experience in. managing and preserving a collection according to professional museum and archival practices. Cultural training should involve experience with the chemical and physical properties of material culture, as well as practical and legal aspects of health and safety, an understanding of climate control systems, security, and conservation methods. The Curator is directly responsible for the care and academic interpretation. of all objects, materials, and specimens belonging to or lent to the museum; recommendations for acquisition, de -accession, attribution and authentication; and research on the collections and the publication of the results of that research. The Curator also may have administrative and/or exhibition responsibilities. Products and Activities . Professional experience and expertise must be documented through "products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation." Products and activities that meet the appropriate Secretary's Standards for Archeology and Historic Preservation may include: • Exhibit catalogs and other scholarly reports. • Field or laboratory work that demonstrates ability to conserve, document, or :interpret archeological, Federal Register / Vol. 62, No. 119 / Friday, June 20, 1997 / Notices 33717 archival, or material culture objects or collections. . Plans or finding aids for the preservation or documentation of museum collections. . Publications, which might include articles in regional, national, or international professional journals, monographs, books, or chapters in edited books, related to the care and treatment of archeological, archival, or material culture objects or collections. . Presentations at regional, national, or international professional conferences, symposia, workshops, or exhibits related to the care and treatment of archeological, archival, or material cultural objects or collections. . Professional service on boards or committees or regional, national, or international professional organizations concerned with the care and treatment of archeological, archival, or material culture objects or collections. . Awards, research grants, research fellowships, or invitations to teaching posts. This list is not comprehensive. Furthermore, it should be understood that not all of these products and activities are needed in order to meet the Standard; rather, a combination of several products and activities would be more typical. If the applicant were documenting professional experience in one of the specializations, however, the majority of products and activities would naturally reflect that specialization. Engineering; Historic Preservation Professional Qualification Standards Engineering is the practice of applying scientific principles to the research, planning, design, and management of structures and machines such as roads, bridges, canals, dams, docks, locomotives, and buildings, including their structural, electrical, or mechanical systems. Historic Engineering involves specialized training in engineering principles, theories, concepts, methods, and technologies of the past, and appropriate methods of interpreting and preserving historic engineered structures or machinery. Standard for Engineer (a) The applicant, employee, consultant, or advisor will have a State Government -recognized license to practice civil or structural engineering, plus, a minimum of two (2) years of full- time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of engineering that enables professional judgments to be made about the documentation or treatment of historic structures and machines in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Engineers); or * * * (b) A Masters of Civil Engineering degree with demonstrable course work in Historic Preservation, for historic structures rehabilitation, plus a minimum of two (2) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods, and practices of Engineering that enables professional judgments to be made about the documentation or treatment of historic structures and machines in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Engineers); or * * * (c) A Bachelors of Civil Engineering degree with at least one year of graduate study in History of Technology, Historic Preservation, Engineering History, or a closely related field (see Academic Background for Engineers), plus a minimum of two (2) years of full-time professional experience applying the theories, methods and practices of Engineering that enables professional Judgments to be made about the documentation or treatment of historic structures and machines in the United States and its Territories; and products and activities that demonstrate the successful application of acquired proficiencies in the discipline to the practice of historic preservation (see Documenting Professional Experience for Engineers). (Note: Only persons who are licensed to practice Engineering in that State may prepare and seal plans and specifications in order to obtain construction permits, authorize payments to contractors, and certify that the work is complete. However, State staff, State Review Board members. and CLG staff or Commission members who are not licensed, but who meet the Standard for Engineer under (b) or (c) above, can review proposed and completed work for compliance with the applicable Secretary's Standards for Tax Act, HPF Grant, or other related programs.) Engineering —Academic Background Closely related fields: The Bachelor of Civil Engineering degree is a five-year degree that is unlikely to include historic preservation course work. The same is true of a Masters of Civil Engineering degree. An Engineer with an Engineering degree is well grounded in all aspects of engineering practice, including design, planning, construction specifications, and contract administration. Although this background is essential, additional training is needed in order to understand and work with historic structures, sites, and machines, with their complex material evolution and treatment problems. Spec falized training, to supplement that provided by the professional Engineering program, should be acquired in such areas as American Architectural and Engineering History, History of Technology, Architectural Preservation, Conservation, Historic Construction Technologies, Historic Building Materials, Historical Archaeology, and Historic Preservation. Discipline specializations: Civil Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Structural Engineering are typical specializations within the broader discipline of Engineering. The two specializations most often used in historic preservation projects are Civil and Structural Engineering. Occasionally, there may be the need for a Mechanical Engineer to address issues concerning historic machinery such as locomotives, steam engines, water turbines, electric generators, and similar machines and equipment, or particularly complex mechanical systems in a historic structure. Applying the Standard for Engineer — Documenting Professional Experience To be licensed by a State Government as a professional Engineer, an individual must pass a written exam and successfully fulfill education, training, and experience requirements.

Historic Architecture —Academic Background Closely related fields: The Bachelor of Architecture degree is a five-year degree that does not always include historic preservation course work. The same may be true of a Masters of Architecture degree. An Historical Architect is first an Architect and, as such, is well grounded in all aspects of architectural practice, including architectural design, planning, construction specifications, and contract administration. Although this background is essential, additional training is needed in order to understand and work with historic structures, with their complex material evolution and treatment problems. Specialized training, to supplement that provided by the professional Architecture program, should be acquired in such areas as American Architectural History, Architectural Preservation, Conservation, Historic Construction Technologies, Historic Building Materials, and Historic Preservation. Discipline specialization: Historic Architecture is a specialization within the broader discipline of Architecture. Applying the Standard for Historical Architect —Documenting Professional Experience To be licensed by a State Government as a professional Architect, an individual must pass a written exam and successfully fulfill education, training, and experience requirements.

Historic Landscape Architecture — Academic Background Closely related fields: Landscape Architecture is the typical professional Bachelors degree, which is awarded after successful completion of a four- year or five-year undergraduate program. However, the Bachelors or Masters in Landscape Architecture may not always include historic preservation course work. While the standard Landscape Architecture degree program addresses all general aspects of landscape architectural practice (including design, planning, construction specifications, and professional practice), additional training is needed for Historical Landscape Architects. They may need training in landscape research, documentation, analysis, evaluation, and treatment techniques. This additional training is achieved through additional course work and/or professional experience. Graduate study: The Masters in Landscape Architecture degree is the typical graduate degree, which is awarded after successful completion of a two-year or three-year graduate program. This degree should include studies in the principles, theories, concepts, methods, and techniques of preserving cultural landscapes. Course work may include cultural geography; landscape history; archival research techniques; historic preservation theory, principles, and practice; and preservation technologies. Discipline specialization: Historic Landscape Architecture is a specialization within the broader field of Landscape Architecture. Historical Landscape Architects should have completed training in the principles, theories, concepts, methods, and techniques of preserving cultural landscapes. Cultural landscape preservation focuses on preserving a landscape's physical attributes, biotic systems, and use (especially when that use contributes to its historical significance). Graduate study and/or professional experience provides the specialized training needed by the Historical Landscape Architect. Applying the Standard for Historical Landscape Architect —Documenting Professional Experience To be licensed by a State Government as a professional Landscape Architect, an individual typically must pass a written exam and successfully fulfill education, training, and experience requirements. In addition, an Historical Landscape Architect must have two years of experience in the application of Landscape Architecture theories, methods, and practices to the identification, evaluation, documentation, registration, or treatment of historic properties in the United States and its Territories.

SIGN ON TO ATTACHED LETTER July 8, 199', TO: Historic Preservation Organizations -Main Street Programs, Historic District Commissions. and Economic Development Organizations FROM: Edward NI. Norton, Jr. Vice -President Department of Law and Public Policy SUBJECT: Sign -on to attached letter in support of the Clinton Administration's "American Heritage Rivers' Initiative As we reported to you in the Preservation Advocate News, the Clinton Administration has proposed a modest initiative to provide more efficient and effective federal programs and services to community -led river conservation and revitalization initiatives. Announced by Clinton in his State of the Union address in Januar', the American Heritage Rivers initiative aims to enlist 10 U.S. waterways this year in a program that will increase rimer communities' access to federal money and programs to revitalize waterfronts. Many of you have witnessed first-hand the success of river revitalization efforts, and are well aware that these efforts often benefit the historic resources which are the legacy of the eark, settlements of many river communities. Designation as an American Heritage River will make a river eligible for help in securing the enviromnental, economic development, and other federal funds and program assistance which exist throughout the government, but that can be difficult for a single community to identify and access. Unfortunately, this modest yet well -targeted initiative has encountered some significant opposition in the House of Representatives. An oversight hearing on the propposal will be held on Tuesday, July 15th in the House Resources Committee. R'e would like to send the attaclied letter of support for the American Heritage Rivers Initiative to the Resources Committee in time for the hearing. Immediate Action Needed: Review the attached letter, and call the National Trust's Department of Law and Public Policy to add your organization's name to the letter. "We can be reached at 202-588- 6254, or by a -mail at: policy'unthp.org. Thank you for your help and support.

The American Heritage Rivers Initiative enjoys the support of a broad coalition of state and local officials, business and civic groups, river activists, as well as the historic preservation and community revitalization groups listed below. The American Heritage Rivers Initiative is a positive step by the Clinton Administration that promises to provide more efficient and effective federal programs and services to community -led conservation initiatives throughout the nation. It also celebrates the important role that rivers played in our nation's history and continue to plav in our culture. River revitalization efforts invariably enhance the economic development efforts of the surrounding; communities, and as well as benefiting historic areas which are the legacy of early settlements along our nation's rivers. The American Heritage Rivers Initiative would refocus programs, grants, and technical assistance in a number of departments to provide special support to American Heritage Rivers. Each community will be given resources to enhance locally -driven work on behalf of restoration and revitalization of rivers and waterfronts. This initiative will be a partnership between the federal govenumertt and the people who enjoy the marl values of rivers. It will not impose new regulations, standards, or requirements on communities. This entirely voluntary initiative very much reflects the bipartisan view that the federal government should efficiently and effectivelv assist communities in meeting local oUjeetiyes for river revitalization and stewardship. We urge you to support the American Heritage Rivers Initiative and to oppose any efforts to limit or terminate this timely, well -targeted proposal.

PPESER/ATION ADVOCATE NEws People and Places: Living in Cultural Landscapes The Slst National Preservation Conference will take place throughout Northern New Mexico, with our base in Santa Fe. This venue offers the opportunity to explore American Indian, Hispanic, and Anglo cultures and their interaction over the centuries. The conference theme, "People and Places: Living in Cultural Landscapes." focuses on the context for our lives: natural and man-made creations both influencing and influenced by daily activities, needs and aspirations of people. In this exploration we will address sharper edged issues: innovative approaches to growth management; benefits and costs of heritage tourism; tensions among traditional ways of life, sacred places, and economic development; protection of archeological sites and artifacts; best practices in stewardship of historic sites; and authenticity, contemporary design, and functional needs in historic districts. Our approach will seek to create an exchange regarding experience in New Mexico and other parts of our country. In this way, we will gain strategies and insights to take back to our own communities, and enrich approaches to preservation issues in New Mexico. We begin the conference with three concurrent overview sessions to orient us to this old and complex part of America: Perspectives on Ffistorr of New ,Mexico and the Southwest; RethinkinS Authentici 'v and Tradition: What Preservationists 14i;ht Learn from Pueblo Indians, Hispanics, and Appalachians and On I3ecomin; the Northern ,New Mexico Landscape: Constructing and Sustaining Senses of Tunue and Place Each of these will feature selected presentations by leading New Mexico professionals and opportunities for discussion. The openingand closing plenarysessions will take place in thest. Francis Cathedral, thanks to the generosity of the Archdiocese of Santa Fe. Speakers will carry out the theme of the conference from both national and Southwestern perspectives. At the heart of the conference is the opportunity to explore Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico through a selection of more than 40 field sessions. In addition, more than 45 educational sessions in Santa Fe will address issues inherent in the theme, including essential preservation issues such as real estate, legislative developments, and urban revitalization. In addition to the plenary and overview sessions, the following educational and field sessions, carry out the theme of the 51st National Preservation Conference, "People and Places: Living in Cultural Landscapes."
