fyi Carol Van Buren _____ TOWN OF MINISINK CULTURAL RESOURCES MANAGEMENT LAW Legislative Findings: The Town of Minisink, by and through the Town Board, hereby finds and declares that recognizing the unique historical and archeological artifacts, sites and features within the Town to preserve such artifacts for future generations is in furtherance of our fundamental duty to protect the welfare of the people of the Town of Minisink. The Town therefore enacts this Act in an effort to manage and maintain the cultural and historical significance within the Town. Section 1. Definitions. For the purposes of this law, the following terms shall have the following meaning: A) "Cultural Resources" shall mean and include archaeological sites and historic resources. B) "Artifacts" shall mean objects, specimens, and other physical evidence that are excavated or removed in connection with efforts to locate, evaluate, document, study, preserve or recover prehistoric or historic resources.

A professional in historic archeology shall have at least one year of full-time professional experience at a supervisory level in the study of archeological resources of the historic period. (1) "Phase 1A Literature Review and Sensitivity Assessment" shall mean Phase 1A investigations are intended to gather information concerning the environmental/physical setting of a specific project area as well as its cultural setting. It is the interrelationship of the physical environment and cultural/historical setting that provides the basis for the sensitivity assessment. (2) "Phase 1B Field Investigation" shall mean appropriate field investigations comprising a systematic, on-site field inspection designed to assess archaeologically sensitive areas and environmental characteristics relevant to site locations and formation processes. Such investigation may include: (a) Systematic Surface Survey (b) Subsurface Testing (c) Remote Sensing (d) Laboratory Processing (e) Report H) "Phase 2 Site Evaluation" shall mean an evaluation involving additional research, which may include excavation, to collect the data necessary for evaluating a site's data potential and research significance.

I) "Phase 3 Mitigation Act" shall mean a process which lessens the impacts on a site or historic structure. It shall not authorize a taking of the property. Section 2. Determination.

If such a phase 1A Cultural Resource Investigation is required, the Planning Board shall review the results of such Investigation and determine whether a Phase 1B Field Investigation shall be required. Upon reviewing findings of such study or studies, the Planning Board may order a Site Evaluation Phase 2 Study and subsequently, if deemed necessary after reviewing the Site Evaluation Phase 2 Study, a Phase 3 Mitigation act. Upon acceptance of the study and process results, the Planning Board shall notify the Building Inspector of such acceptance. In no way does this act authorize the Planning Board to commence condemnation proceedings or effect a condemnation or taking of the property, real or personal. Section 3. Burial Sites.

The ??researcher who published that "scotland" error made assorted other errors in her book. John was born 21 Nov 1734 at Westerly, Washington, RI. I understand you're in Hill Dna group 27.
