NEPA, ARPA, NAGPRA, SHPOs, THPOs, CEQ, EIS, SIA, Section 106, the National Register, Executive Order 11593. The federal laws, regulations, protocols, and agencies associated with the identification and protection of American cultural resources can be bewildering to the outsider. Thomas F. King, who has been actively involved in cultural resources management practice for almost three decades, demystifies this web of regulation, providing frank, practical advice on how to ensure regulatory compliance in dealing with archaeological sites, historic buildings, urban districts, sacred sites and objects, shipwrecks, and archives. In this brief, informally written guide, he discusses the various federal laws that govern the protection of resources, how they have been interpreted, how they operate in practice, and even how they sometimes contradict each other. The author also provides helpful guidance to the wide array of federal, state, and tribal offices that are concerned with cultural resources management and the special challenges of working with each. King's insider's guide is an essential tool for CRM work by archaeologists, historic preservationists, environmentalists, tribal governments, agency managers, and students. Sponsored by the Heritage Resource Management Program, University of Nevada, Reno
