The Arizona SHPO has issued a "guidance point" on capping sites for
preservation:

This guidance document does not provide much encouragement for this
preservation option.

Subject: Info on capping sites

 

I recall a bulletin issued by NPS several years ago about best practices on 

capping sites for protection, materials to use, and cautionary issues.   

Any references to anything on this subject would be greatly appreciated.
