For those of you who do historic preservation and/or cultural resource
management work, a major gap has been filled in historic preservation reference
materials posted on the National Park Service's "Links to the Past" web site at
<www.cr.nps.gov>.  If you look under "Laws, Regulations and Standards," you will
find the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archeology and
Historic Preservation.  The direct address is
<www.cr.nps.gov/local-law/arch_stnds_0.htm>.

Originally published in the Federal Register in 1983, the Standards and
Guidelines cover Preservation Planning, Identification, Evaluation,
Registration, Historical Documentation, Architectural and Engineering
Documentation (i.e., HABS/HAER), Archeological Documentation, and Historic
Preservation Projects (revised in 1995 and retitled Treatment for Historic
Properties); and Standards for Professional Qualifications.  Recommended Sources
of Technical Information sections have been updated and web links provided for
additional information.

Dear Colleague,

Largely due to the great work of Terry Childs and Matt Burns, listed below in
Terry's message.  We have added links and cross references to useful materials
published subsequent to 1983 when the Standards and Guidelines were published.

We hope that you find this posting useful.

Yours,

John Renaud

     wanted you all to know that the final version of the SOI S&G for
     Archeology and Historic Preservation is live on the web from the "Laws
     and Regs and Standards" page or go straight to:
