Links to State OSA's



Dwarmour

In the "define a looter" thread there were some links to files regarding state regulations.  I know there was a brief mention on another thread of compiling a list of links that would be comprised of state documents concerning their guidelines for cultural resource compliance.  I was about to go through and create a document that listed every state's OSA website, like an idiot, but luckily googled it before hand :-S

Here is a list from the National Association of State Archaeologists that has links to each state's OSA:
http://www.uiowa.edu/~osa/nasa/

I know Jennifer also has a link to each state's Preservation Officers in the resources tab but I'll link it here as well:
http://www.ncshpo.org/find/index.htm
and THPO's:
http://www.nathpo.org/map.html

I wanted to create this thread incase anyone may know of any good links to files regarding guidelines to compliance in .pdf forms, or what have you, for each state.  The previous thread was starting to get bogarted although they are related, maybe it will keep the debate on collector's vs. looters vs. archaeologists open and informative while links to laws and regulations can be posted here and referred to.

This was from StarRider and contains a linked file to guideline compliance in Mississippi:
http://www.cobb.msstate.edu/archguidelines.pdf

And these links were from Dmack89 relating to compliance in New York:
Links to the legislation that applies in NY can be found at http://nysparks.com/shpo/environmental-review/preservation-legislation.aspx

The full STANDARDS for CRM archaeology were developed in 1994 by the New York Archaeological Council (NYAC), accepted by the SHPO in 1995 and can be found athttp://nyarchaeology.org/assests/standards/NYACStandards.pdf

Links to a variety of specific guidance developed by the SHPO in recent years can be found at http://nysparks.com/shpo/environmental-review/ .  these including a link to a 2005 update to the full Standards document - and guidance on various types of specific projects  where some variation has been built in,( i.e Wind Farms, Restore Grants, and how to proceed if human remains are found).

A handbook on the process/standards that was designed for the layperson (your clients/public) was published by the New York Archaeological Council and can be found athttp://nyarchaeology.org/mainpages/about/documents/nyachandbook.pdf
