How it Started vs. How it’s Going: The First Year of a Cultural Compliance Rule for New Mexico Trust Land
Author(s): Ethan Ortega; Rachael Lorenzo; Anne Curry; Carlyn Stewart; Adesbah Foguth

Summary
This is an abstract from the "SAA 2024: Individual Abstracts" session, at the 89th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.
The New Mexico State Land Office implemented a new Cultural Properties Protection (CPP) Rule on December 1, 2022. This statute mandated changes to a decades-long culture of “you break it, you buy it” regarding damage to cultural properties caused by extractive industry in the state. Implementation resulted in the identification and protection of hundreds of cultural properties. The initial year of cultural compliance requirements also highlighted policy gaps in need of future development. This poster will provide multicultural perspectives on the successes and inadequacies of the CPP Rule, and how it can be a model for other state trust land agencies.
