U.S. Army Corps of Engineers: A National Perspective on CRM, Research, and Consultation

Part of: Society for American Archaeology 84th Annual Meeting, Albuquerque, NM (2019)

This collection contains the abstracts of the papers presented in the session entitled "U.S. Army Corps of Engineers: A National Perspective on CRM, Research, and Consultation," at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) is one of the nation’s oldest federal agencies. The Corps has multiple missions, including construction of harbors, navigation improvements, erosion and flood risk management, military construction, permitting of work in waters of the U.S., and cleanup of environmental contamination in the U.S. and abroad. Due to the diversity of its missions and regional specificities, there is an equally diverse amount of work conducted by Corps archaeologists and cultural resource managers, including working with multiple stakeholders, ranging from private individuals to Federally-recognized tribes to State and Federal agencies. This session explores some of the archaeological work conducted by the Corps, including compliance with Section 106 and Section 110 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended, Government-to-Government consultation, original research, and the creation of program-specific protocols.
