Identification and Inventory Needs Clause Samples

Identification and Inventory Needs. Forests shall make a good faith effort to identify all historic properties that may be affected in an undertaking’s APE. Where existing information is inadequate, additional identification efforts are likely needed (e.g., field surveys). Consultation with THPOs, Indian tribes, and Native American Traditional Practitioners may also be necessary to identify cultural resources of traditional religious or cultural significance to Tribes (Stipulation 7.5). The HPM/DHPS staff will design an inventory strategy with prescribed coverage methods based on a Forest’s/ District’s cultural resource sensitivity model (e.g., a model employing environmental and geomorphic variables such as slope, aspect, elevation, hydrology, flora, landforms, or other landscape attributes and natural features). Such inventory strategy may include a variety of coverage methods to identify historic properties throughout the APE. Inventory strategies employing survey traverses spaced no more than 30 meters apart shall be considered intensive for the purposes of this agreement. A Forest may choose to develop a Forest-wide inventory strategy (FSM 2360) in consultation with the SHPO, and affected THPOs and Indian tribes. Once a Forest-wide inventory strategy has been approved by the SHPO of the affected state(s), the Forest may apply that strategy to applicable undertakings without prior consultation with the SHPO. Unless otherwise agreed to in consultation with the ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇ shall ensure that project- specific surveys and other efforts to identify historic properties are consistent with the appropriate professional standards in FSM 2360 (Appendix B), and to the extent prudent and feasible with respective guidelines of the California Office of Historic Preservation or Nevada SHPO, and the Secretary of Interior's Standards and Guidelines. (a) Region 5 will identify historic properties on Region 5-administered lands or other lands where a Region 5 undertaking will occur. (b) No additional identification efforts are required prior to making decisions about the implementation of undertakings if the APE is entirely within areas that have been previously inventoried; and HPMs determine that the previous identification efforts meet standards under this PA and document these findings for those undertakings. When assessing and certifying the adequacy of previous inventory work (i.e., reports and documentation), HPMs should consider the following measures: when the work was done; who did the work an...
