Best Practices for Managing UCH on the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf
Author(s): Dave Ball
Year: 2015
Summary
Located along the western boundary of the continental United States, the Pacific Outer Continental Shelf holds a vast array of potential archaeological and historic resources, resources which must be considered during the federal permitting process for offshore renewable energy. In order to better manage these resources and take into account potential adverse effects that could occur as a result of offshore renewable energy development, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management is undertaking a proactive management strategy by funding research efforts that provide baseline information on known and potential underwater cultural heritage resources, and by identifying best practices for incorporating information from indeigenous communities in the planning process.
