Workshop
Abstract:  This workshop is designed to introduce non-specialists to
issues specific to underwater archaeology.  Participants will learn about
different types of underwater cultural heritage sites, and the techniques used
in Phase I, II, and III surveys.  The purpose of this workshop is not to
teach participants how to do underwater archaeology, but instead to create
awareness in recognizing the potential for submerged cultural resources in
areas of impact, relevant state and federal legislation, budgeting for
submerged cultural resource investigations, reviewing submerged cultural
resource assessments, and providing sufficient background information to assist
in making informed decisions regarding the underwater archaeological
heritage.
