Archaeological Collection Sampling and Discard Protocols (Legacy 16-789)
This project developed guidance on how to slow the growth in volume of materials requiring long-term curation and allow for future efficient management of collections of undetermined, little or no research potential. Guidance is given to relate collection management plans to associated project research designs. These guidelines should be distributed to DoD cultural resources subject matter experts and cultural resources managers for implementation. The best practices presented would be...

The documents were originally housed in an acidic folder within an acid-free box with various document collections from the Huntington...
Corps of Engineers Salvage Projects 1969-1982
The Veterans Curation Program utilizes the standard archival practice of unique naming of collections. The purpose of this practice is to avoid redundant and confusing collection names commonly found with archaeological investigations. Therefore, this collection is referred to as “Corps of Engineers Salvage Projects 1969–1982.” This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folders, and the box labels. The extent of this collection is two and a half linear inches. Corps of...

Cultural Resources Public Outreach and Interpretation Source Book (Legacy 10-127)
This project created a guide that collects existing standards, guidance, and best practices on cultural resources interpretation and public outreach and examples of interpretation and public outreach projects. This project developed an evaluation rubric for comparing effectiveness of diverse project types and used that data to develop a source book of best examples and guidance to help DoD components and installations to develop their own creative cultural resources interpretation and public...
Department of Defense and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Curation Options Project, Eastern States (Legacy 97-0376)

A Historical look at American Archeology
This project was set up by ASU undergraduate Aaron Deguzman for a individual study project that he did with FPMcManamon in the Spring semester of 2011. Included are digital copies of some of the historic publications he read and some of his written summaries and assessments of these readings. The following two paragraphs are Aaron's statement of what he hoped to get out of the readings course. What I'd like to study is the history of archeology with an emphasis on the public outlook on...
In-Theater Heritage Training for Deploying Personnel (Legacy 09-324)
This project resulted in various training products produced by the Center for Environmental Management of Military Lands (CEMML), Colorado State University, Fort Collins, CO, and the Cultural Resources Management Program at Fort Drum, NY, between 2005-2010, for purposes of raising awareness among U.S. military personnel and DoD contractors in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Egypt of the importance and value of preserving and protecting cultural property.

Nationwide Context and Evaluation Methodology for Farmstead and Ranch Historic Sites and Historic Archaeological Sites on DoD Property (Legacy 17-837)
This project developed a methodology for efficiently identifying the best examples of historic farmstead sites, and also those sites that are least likely to be deemed eligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. It details testing the applicability of the methodology to regions across the country. Regional historic contexts were created to assist in the determination of “typical” farmsteads.
Ohio River Environmental Assessment and Kanawha River Project 1977-1978

The extent of this collection is half (0.5) of a linear inch. The documents date from 1975 to 1978, but the reconnaissance report dates to 1977 and the Public Notice was issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1978, which explains the dates in the investigation name. The collection contains...
