Nearly all Washington State' <br />Parks contain one or more important historic buildings, structures, or archaeological sites. For this <br />reason, archaeological surueys and historic building inventories are ordinarily commissioned as a <br />part ofbackground analysis and information gathering for park developments and undertakings. <br />Results ofthese surveys are used during project planning to ensure every effort is made to avoid <br />impacts to cultural resources. Yet, despite these efforts, there always remains some potential for <br />unanticipated discoveries while working in Washington State Parks. <br />Atl unanticipated discoveries, both cultural resources and human skeletal remains, are subject to <br />all applicable federal and skte statues, regutations, and executive orders. For these reasons, the <br />Inadvertent Discovery Plan (IDP) provides useful guidance and instructions for circumstances <br />when cultural resources or human skeletal remains are found. Please carefully read these <br />instructions. If you have any questions, please contact the apprcpriate WSPRC Area Manager or <br />the WSPRC archaeologist assigned to the undertaking. It is also strongly recommended that <br />anyone conducting ground-disturbing activities watch the training video produced by Washington <br />State Dept of Ecology: lnadvcrtent Discovery of Cu <br />for Field Staff. This IDP for cultural resources and human skeletal remains is based on RCW <br />ry4,P(CW 27.53. RCW 68.50.645, RCW 27.44'055, and RCW 68'60'055 and recommended <br />language from the Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP). r <br />INADVERTENT DISCOVERY PLAN FOR CULTURAL RESOURCES <br />If cultural resources are found during a project, activiry in the immediate area of the find should <br />be discontinued (stop), the area secured (protect), and the WSPRC archaeologists notified to <br />assess the find (notify), lthen in doubt, assume the materisl is a cultural resource snd <br />iinplement the IDP ouilined below. <br />Recognizing Cultural Resources-Iypes of Hisloric/Precontdet Artifacts and/or Aclivity Areos <br />That May Be Found <br />. &!-facts- Both historic and precontact artifacts may be found exposed in backhoe <br />trenches or back dirt piles. <br />o Precontact artifacts may range from finished tools such as stone pestles, <br />arrowheads/projectile points, shell beads, orpolished bone tools to small pieces <br />or "flakes" or "chips" of exotic stone such as chert, jasper, or obsidian. <br />o Historic artifacts rnay include older (more than 50 years) nails, plates/ceramics, <br />bottles, cans, coins, glass insulators, or bricks. <br />Pag !!qf!{ _ <br />Palouse to Cascades Slale Park i;it <br />Franchise # F488501 KVEI
