WORK AVAILABLE· ON WARM SPRINGS DAM PROJEX>T

The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, San Francisco District, will be contracting for historical, ethno­graphic, and archeological services in connection with the construction of Warm Springs Ilam-Lake Sonoma, Sonoma County, California. The project includes approximately 17,000 acres, with about 95 sites of known cultural significance. Briefly, the work will entail:

1. Historical research, including strong com­ponents of oral history and ethnohistory, to provide mitigation-level and interpretive program documentation and materials on the settlement of the project area by non-Indian peoples, as well as a chronicle of settler-Indian contacts. Special emphasis shall be on the background of sites which have been deemed eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, which includes the Skaggs Springs area. Coordination with and participation by local historical societies and archival repositories will be emphasized.

2. Ethnographic research among Cloverdale Pomo and • other Indians with ancestral relationships to the project area who were not contacted during initial surveys. Facilitation of the establishment of an on-going working relationship between the Corps and Native Americans with affinities to the project area, Special attention will be paid to development of management programs for ethnobotanical resources of the project, and formulation of plans for Indian-related interpretive programs.

3. The initial phase of archeological work will include the formulation of a research design for both prehistoric and historic archeological site preservation and data recovery, and the accomplish­ment of such work within the zones what will be affected by construction through Fiscal Year 1979. Problems related to the inundation of archeological sites and data will be examined in depth, with petroglyph preservation and relocation being given special consideration. Planning for interpretive use of archeological sites and data will be initiated.

Further information may be obtained from Dr. Richard N. Lerner, Anthropologist, Environmental Branch (Phone 415 556-6665). Parties who may want to be considered for all or portions of this work should file Standard Form 254, "Architect-Engineer and Related Services Questionnaire," with the:

Secretary, Selection Board U,S, Army Corps of Engineers 211 Main Street San Francisco, CA 94105

AND CALTRANS AGREE ON I-15 ARTIFACTS

"A disagreement between the Luiseno Indians and Caltrans over what to do with Indian artifacts dis­covered in the right-of-way of a proposed 2-mile section of Interstate 15 north of Escondido has been resolved, according to Adria.ru:;, Giantu.rco, director of the transportation department. Leaders of the Luiseno tribe have agreed to leave the artifacts in place as long, as they are not disturbed by freeway construction, Ms. Giantu.rco said. Bids on the pro­ject, budgeted at $10.2 million, will be opened in Los Angeles Dec. 15 and work is ex:pected to begin 30 to 45 days later, a Caltrans spokesman said. The four-lane freeway route is in northern San Diego County."

SAN DiffiO SITE DElfEJ,OPMENT HEARll'lG SE!'

"Plans to excavate two prehistoric Indian camps discovered in Southeast San Diego's Chollas Canyon were being made last night while a legal battle' was looming over who has rights to archaeological digs destined :ior modern development.

"At immediate issue was the fate of the two rare archaeological discoveries, which scientists say were camps occupied by people of the so­called ta, Jollan culture between 2,000 and a,ooo years a.go.

"The two sites, apparently rich in stone tools, were discovered Nov. 15 near Federal Boulevard and 60th Street on private properrr about to be graded for housing construction.

"The possible further significance ef the issue is th<J,t it affect city policy on whether to preserve archaeological materials in the path of future property developments.

"The legal conflict began nine days aeo >rl:ien Joyce Gage Reading, a student of anthropology and archaeology, found the two camps on projects tu;lder development hillside terrace a 100 feet from the bottom of dry creek bed (sic).

"At each site :she found cutting, scraping and seed grinding tools of stone a.~d the shells of pecten:s and chiones, shellfish savored by early Indians in the area.

"Reading then learned that the Biddle-Carte~ Development Corp. was ~reparing to construct low­income housing in the area and had already been issued.a grading permit.

"'I found engineers setting stakes on my second visit .to the site, 1 she recalled. 'They toln me they were bringing in a Caterpillar tractor '.;he next day and that major dirt removal operations were set to start the following Monday (~~ov. 21).'

"On Nov. 16, Rearl:ibg led six other archaeclo­gists and anthropologists to the sites. They concurred that the camps belonged to the La Jollan culture.

''Rer::arkably little is trmm about the La Jollan Indians, partly because few of their canps have been fcund. Scientists know that they were

3

primarily gatherers, rather than hunters, that they buried their dead in flexed position with cherished possess1on:s, that tney were oy Yaleo­Indian:s (sic) of the San Dieguito culture and disappeared about 2,000 years ago as the Luiseno and Kumeyaay Indian cultures appeared in this area.

"Several of the scientists began makir.g inquiries of the developer and at City Hall in an attempt to halt the planned gradir.g.

"Reading said they were told by a supervisor in the environmental quality division of the city Planning Department, and subsequently by a deputy city attorney, •that nothing could be done. 1

Area Posted: Reading said she returned to the site Nov. 17 and was alanned to find the 35-acre property posted with !llal'lY 1no trespassing' signs and patroled by a guard.

"At this point, Daniel D. Whitney, an attorney as well as a professor of anthropology at San Diego State University, became involved in the situation.

"In an eleventh-hour effort to halt the bull­dozers, Whitney, county archaeologist Ron May and archaeologist Richard J. Kardash Jr. met Sunday night with Superior Court Judge Earl B. Gilliam at his home.

"Gilliam issued a, temporary restraining o:rder delaying the grading work and the next morning the group headed by Ka:rdash filed suit to extend the order, subsequently granted, by Judge Alfred Lord.

"Named as defendents in the action are the City of San Diego, planning director James Goff, environ­mental quality director James Gleason and the devel­opment finn~ which has offices in Kearney Mesa •

"At some point in the proceedings, Rea.ding said, it was lea.med that the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development had a.greed to guarantee loa.na for the complet.ed housing uni ts. Reading said HUD authorities in Denver were contacted and that the agency later informed the developer it would with­draw from the loan agreement 1.Ulless the two sites were investigated to the satisfaction of the scientists.

''Yesterday, Whitney said he and the attorney for the developers, Robert Caplan, agreed to an arrange­ment in which the company will permit the scientists to investigate the two sites until a court hearing date on nee. 5 in return for allowing the firm to proceed with grading of some 30 acres of land around the sites.

Still Under Study: Deputy City Attorneys Alan Sumption and .John Riess said they were still studying the case.

"A development fire official referred questions to Caplan, who could not be reached ror comment."

(Instrumental in the e~forts noted above were Brian Mooney, who initiated the telephone network which soon linked California Indian Leeal Services with Kardash and beean to get things moving; Lester Marston of C.I.L.S.; ~nd Prnfessor/Atto!::!ey Dan Whitney of S, D.S. U. Attorneys JY'iarston and \lhi tney have donated many hours of legal ~~sistance a:'lll field labor a8 well).

SCA SOLICITS MANUSCRIPTS FOR OCCASIONAL PAPERS

The Society for California Axchaeology is soliciting papers on method arid theory in California archaeology for inclusion in its new publication series. Emphasis of the series will be on new and different interpretations or explanations of existing data and new methods of gathering and synthesizing data. Papers should relate to California archaeology or prehistory, or be of interest to California archaeologists, but all papers containing new methods or theories will be considered~ Papers containing well reasoned speculation are especially enco~ed, but purely descriptive papers are discou..""ag0d u.~less they contain highly significant data which will generate new and different interpretations. The length of papers can vary, as can style, but all papers must be concisely written and well thoueht out. mrto'rials, book reviews and short comments may also be submitted for consideration~ Manuscripts may be submitted to:

BEDROCK MORTAR MOVED TO ESCONDIDO MUSEUM

The San Diego Union for October 16, 1977, page B-8, carried a picture shoving two bulldozers pulling a bedrock milling feature through a dark soil, and two construction men in hard hats. The caption beneath read:

"Heavy equipment operators tackle the job of moving an eight ton boulder--containing grinding holes useii by early day Indians to process acorns, nuts, and other hard foods into meal--from a field in Escondido to the city Historical Society's mini-museum in Grape Day Park. The move was made yesterday."

It is to be hoped that this move will not be a p?eeedent for bulldozing operations on other bedrock milling. stations, whatever their destinations mi·€ht be. Efforts to preserve Such features in situ, and to test the surrounding soil for pollen, bone, stone flakes or artifacts would seem to be necessities for good cultural resource management practices.

MENDOCINO MUST FOLLOW ENVIRONMENTAL GUIDELINES

"Mendocino County must tighten its procedure for environmental impact reports (EIR) as a remtl t of • last week's Superior Court decision on the Wuanita Meadows subdivision.

"Judge Arthur B. Broaddus ruled that supervisors failed to follow guidelines of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in approving the 14-lot rural subdivision in Rocktree Valley east of Willits.

"The Mendocino County Superior Court judge will issue a writ of mandate overturning the supervisors' June 28 decision.

"Neighbors in the Rocktree Valley-Hearst area filed the lawsuit, arguing that supervisors failed to consider environmental impacts of th.e project.

"Attorneys for the county said the board reviewed the EIR during its June 13 meeting. :But the county did not include an archaeological survey of the site.

"Deputy district attorney Rick Henderson, repre­senting the boa.rtl of supervisors, argued that opponents f~-;led to challe~~e the re~ort within 10 days after it was adopted.

"The judge said supervisors should not have okayed a report with an 'admitted defect,• however.

"Broaddus ruled that supervisors delegated author­ity to the planning commission to review the report.

"He cited CEQ.A guidelines which identify super­visors as the 1 lead agency• in EIR deliberations. 'The EIR cannot serve its infonnational function unless it is reviewed and consid!?Z"i by the govern­mental body which takes action having an effect upon the environment,• Broaddus said.

"He ruled in favor of the neighbors •••• 'l'hey earlier protested the subdivision, warning about poor roads in the area. Neighbors said the project would spoil the valley's rural character by doubling the number of parcels there ••••

"Henderson told the board of supervisors this week they will have to certify all EIRs as legally sufficient, a task which was formerly left to the planning commission.

"The deputy district attorney said he is not clear about Judge Broaddus• intB!cy:retation of the CEQA guidelines. 'The key is what is meant by "reviewing and considering"• 1 he said. Henderson said he will confer with the judge about EIR procedures •••• "

INFOfilll".ATION REQUESTED ON ARCHAEOLOGIST I NATIVE AMERICAN COOPERATION AND CONFLICT

Ron May's article in the July 1977 issue of the Newsletter, listing examples of cooperation between American Indians and archaeologists in the San Diego area, is on a subject of great interest to me. Why do we see instances of both cooperation and conflict between Indians and archaeologists? We should be interest8d in trying to answer this question, because we are, after all, anthropologists, and because gaining understanding can't help but be a positive step towards future cooperation between these two groups whose interests aren't always the same.

I have begun investigating this topic and hope to culminate it in the form of an M.A. thesis. Being a member of SCA, as well as its :Business Office manager, I am well aware that the Newsletter reaches a majority of archaeolo­gists and archaeology-interested people in the state, and is therefore an invaluable vehicle for seeking the kind of information I am after. If any of you can provide me with the details of any cases of either cooperation or conflict between archaeologists (yourself perhaps) and American Indian groups concerning a site, artifacts, burials, etc., I would very much appreciate hearing from you. Please include the date, geographical location as well as the Indian tribe involved, if possible. I would also appreciate any suggestions anyone may have for me. Please write to Susan Wright, 2501 Wallace Avenue, Fullerton, CA 92631. Thank you.

ANTIQUITIES LAW RULED ILLEGAL

The following article is reprinted from the A,S,C,A. Newsletter for October 1977, page 3, Written by Denise Tessier, it orginally appeared in the Albuguerque Journal, August 16, 1977, pages A1-2,

''Misdemeanor charges against a man who allegedly excavated pottery pieces from a 900-year­old Zuni ruin were dismissed Monday by a part-time federal magistrate in Albuquerque, who held the law protecting such ruins unconstitutional, U.S. Magistrate Peter Gallagher, while filling in for U.S. Magistrate Robert McCoy, made the decision after a day of testimony in which two archaeological experts testified that the pottery sherds removed dated back to 1100 A.D.

"Before Gallagher dismissed the charges, prosecutor Robert Collins warned that to strike down the law as unconstitutional 'would exnose all national forests and national parks and their ruins and monuments to wanton and irreversible destitution at the hands of souvenir and commercial pottery hunters.'

"Being tried was Scott Merritt Ca.mazine, 25, a third-year Harvard medical student who works at the Zuni public hospital, The charge was a misdemeanor offense under the U,S, Antiquities Act, which pro­hibits. excavating, injuring or destroying any historic or prehistoric ruin or monument or any 'object of antiquity• on government lands, Gallagher dismissed the charge after Ca.mzine 1 s defense attorney, Jay Hertz of Albuquerque, challenged the Antiquities Act as vague, saying reasonable persons might not be able to ascertain what a prehistoric ruin or object of antiquity is,

"Collins said he cannot appeal Gallagher's dismissal because evidence against Ca.mazine had already been introduced, bringing the case under the double jeopardy rule, He said, however, that the U,S, Attorney's office 1 will continue to prosecute antiquities violations with vigor, wherever they occur, despite Gallagher's ruling,•

"Zuni rangers testified that they caught Camazine at the site, and one of two children with Camazine testified that the man had taken pottery pieces from the hole that had been dug, A hoe and two trowels were introduced as the tools used by Ca.mazine, The two archeological experts, Bruce Anderson and T. J, Ferguson of Zuni Archeological Enterprise, testified that the site was highly unusual in that it was laid out by early Indians in an 1 X1 pattern, as opposed to the traditional 1 L1 or 1U1 patterns, They also said the hole appeared to have been dug directly over an ancient ceremonial room, or kiva,

"In June 1976, three commercial pottery hunters cited by forest rangers for excavating an unmarked ruin near Mogollon in the Gila National Forest were convicted under the Antiquities Act and sentenced by U.S. Magistrate John Darden to social service work for a period of time, Darden had denied a similar defense plea of unconstitutionality and vagueness. However, in a similar case in Arizona that resulted in conviction was appealed to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, and the court ruled that the Antiquities Act is unconstitutional. That ruling does not apply in New Mexico, which is in the Tenth Circuit,"

N!TIVE AMERICAN HERITAGE COMMISSION

Victoria Roberts, Resource Coordinator on the staff of the Native American Heritage Commission, spoke at the Oat. 22 Data-Sharing Meetings at Sonoma State College about the work of the commission and the role of archaeologists with respect to the commission. The commission, she said, is involved in cultural resource preservation when another state agency is inv'll.ved, or when state or federal money is involved. The commission has so far received more than 200 requests for assistance, from tribes, agencies, etc. EIRs and EIS's which Ms. Roberts has reviewed have been , (with few exceptions) "totally inadequate," she stated. The major shortcomings involve failure to contact the local Indian community, failure to make a thorough literature search and check with the State Historic Preserva­tion Office to see if a site is on the National register, and failure to discuss mitigation pro­cedures (including comments from the local Native American conmr.mity so that the commission will know wti.at they vant ~done with the site). On the latter point, she noted that because there are local differences in opinion and preferences, there cannot be any overall policy from the com.'llission on what is to be done with sites.

The Colll!llission has decided to put off survey &.9ld inYent~_ng all :socially and religiously important sites in the state until next year, because of the difficulties involved in identify­ing sites, which may lead to pot-hunting and desecration, It is concerned about the ever­increasi~ violation of burial sites; archaeolo­gists must contact local Native .American people as soon as they suspect that a burial is present, and respect the wishes of these people about scientific study or immediate reburial. Artifacts should also be reinterred if the local Native Americans wish it. i\.rchaeologists have to explain to local people 'What they want to do, so that there will be understanding on both sides.

The Commission is making ready a Directory including names and addresses of Indian people in California, which archaeologists should send for. A statewide list of organizations, listed by counties, should be ready by January. In March a Cultural Handbook should be available, including a sample EIR, procedures to be followed on different levels of property ownership (private, city, county, state, or federal property) and cultural resoi=e management guidelines.

Ms, Roberts requested help from SCA in monitoring archaeologists who claim to be cultural resoi=e managers, and suggested that a list of archaeologists who are competent and can report back to Native American people would be useful. She also suggested that a committee of Native Americans, archaeologists, SlIPO a.nd (??) offices should be established to review EIRs and monitor what is going on in the field.

'Hie Commission would be interested in receiving information 'Which SCA members may have on CRM classes, collections of relevant laws, and samples of good EIR.s. To send these, or to request publications of the Native American Heritage Commission, notification of time and place of their monthly meetins, or be _put on their mailing list, write to her at the following address, or to Stephen M. Rios, Executive Secretary:

FOREST SERVICE COOPERATES TO PROTECT CERil>!ONIAL SITE

Six Rivers National Forest and Klamath National Forest worked closely with the Orleans Karok Council in protecting a ceremonial site during the recent Hog Fire. The site, used by Karok deer hunters as a good luck site, is located in an isolated, road.less area. When it was threatened by the fire, it became necess­ary to extend a fire line throut;-TI the area. Before doing so 1 the Orleans District Ranger of Six Rivers N.F. contacted the Orleans Karok Council and obtained their concurrence and advice on the construction of the fire line. A "cat" line was constructed several hundred yards downslope from the Rocks, while a foot trail which passes through the site w.s cl ea.red of brush. The Chairperson of the Orleans Karok Council, who visited the location during the fire, was satisfied with the manner in which the Rocks site was protected, and was grateful for the cooperation of the Forest Service. Severak Karok from Somes Jlar accompanied the rehabilitation crew which later visited the area and closed off the "cat" line in • several places to prohibit visitation. The site is still intact with no evidence of distu.rbance, and was used by Karok hunters within the past few weeks,

MAJOR PALEOllTOLOGICAL DISCOVERY IN MONTANA

"The skulls of a prehistoric bear and musk ox thought to be up 'to 13, 000 years old, have been found in the deepest recesses of a cave on the slopes of the Continental Divide. Neither species was known to have lived in Montana. The skulls were excavated by Wulliam Melton of the University of Montana Geology Department from a cavern that has primitive Indian drawings at its opening. 'It will add to what we know of the very late Pleistocene era.,' Melton said. The bear skull, parts of it as brittle as cha=ed paper, was brought out of the cave only after it was given several coats of shellac. Portions of it shattered, but Melton is reconstructing them. The skulls might never have been .found had it not been for a year of drought in the Northwest. The water level dropped, disclosing a narrow tunnel coursing downward in an o.ften e:icplored cavern, then leadirJG u.pward to the chamber where the skulls were found."

NATIONW'IDE RESERVOIR INUN1lATION STUilY UNDERWAY

The Southwest Cultural Resources Center of the National Park Service is the coordinating body for a multi-phase study designed to determine the effects of freshwater irrundation upon archeological sites. It is jointly funded by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Bureau of Reclamation, Soil Conserva­tion Service and the National Park Service. The focus of the National Reservoir Irrundation Study is the examination of sites during periods of drawdown, prior to inundation and while flooded, to assess the impacts on data-retrieval potential; the degree of preservation or destruction of archeological remains; and the efficacy of salvage operations versus direct protective measures.

This program has been undertaken to provide agencies involved in land-alteration activities with procedures that will facilitate their land-managing functions in areas where impoundments now exist or are currently being planned. Decisions relating to cultural remains, whether they result in long-term protection, mitigation of adverse impacts, or a combination of procedures mu.st be based upon thoroughly documented and researched scientific data, rather than upon educated guesses as to how sites are affected once they have been immersed.

The goal of the National Reservoir Inundation Study is to develop management-oriented guidelines for cultural resources, which will provide the additional information needed to deal intelligently with cultural remains affected by Federal projects, or on Federal lands where the primary impacts will result or currently result from irrundation, and enable managers to remain in full compliance with extant environmental legislation. The results of this study will also provide involved agencies and archeologists with a greater understanding of the resource and a set of alternatives to the question­able techniques of traditional salvage archeology.

The Inundation Study has moved into its second year of operation and project archeologists have recently completed the Preliminary Report of the National Reservoir Irrundation Study which details the research design to be implemented over the next 3 years. The report outlines a series of testable hypotheses, which are aimed at developing a body of knowledge regarding specific impacts, both adverse and beneficial, upon the data-bearing components and physical integrity of archeological sites. Guidelines for data-collection and site-preparation, designed specifically to test inundation impacts, are included in this document. Information on pro­tective measures and general predictions on their efficacy are also provided, although the emphasis of the study thus far has been on determining the nature of the impact--a necessary first step before providing comprehensive mitigation procedures.

The Inundation Study ersonnel have also com­pleted an annotated bibliography which contains over 250 references to freshwater inundation and related topics. It is entitled, The Effects of Freshwater Inundation of Archeological Sites Through Reservoir Construction: A Literature Search.

Individuals in various areas of the country are currently involved in the on-going research and are implementing many of the field testing procedures outlined in the Preliminary Report. In the states of California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona and Idaho studies are either in progress or in the planning stages. Any information that is available regarding inundation impacts or on-going research being con­ducted in reservoir areas, due to the current drought and drawdown or in preparation for initial closing, would be a-,iprecfa.ted.

Requests for copies of the above-mentioned reports or information relating to immdation impacts should be sent to National Reservoir Irrundation Study, Southwest Cultural Resou.."'Ces Center, P.O. Box 728, Santa Fe, New Mexico 87501.

ON C14 DATES AND CULTURAL RESOURCE MANAGEJo!ENT

Roberta Greenwood's recent call for the publication of C14 dates in the SCA Newsletter (October 1977) is excellent, since it would allow archaeologists throughout the state to better appreciate the testing and mitigation efforts which are being carried out in a variety of locations. ~ne publication of C14 dates would also reaffirm our basic research commitment, and it-emphasizes the need for well-controlled absolute dating in the ma.king of significance statements. Most government agencies require absolute dating as a regular part of testing programs, and many private developers can easily be convinced of their usefulness if presented with well-reasoned arguments. Even a limited testiI11< proRTalll utilizing one to two test pits at_ a_ site with a budget of $1000 should involve C14 or obsidian hydration dating, since they increase our ability to make accurate statements about the importance and condition of the site. They can also result in important theoretical and chronological advances. The following C14 dates were taken from six sites which were tested and one site which was salvaged in Santa Clara County during the past year.

A PROGRESS REPORT ON CALIFORNIA PARKS & PRESERVES

In late September, the Na.tu.re Conservancy announced its intention to purchase 90% of Santa Cruz Island, located off the coast of Santa Jlarba.ra and well known for its exceptional archaeological values. The Nature Conservancy is a 60-year-old environmental group specializing in the acquisition of natural areas throutlh private donations. Conservancy representatives indicated that they had obtained an option to purchase after negotiations with the present owner. The Conser­vancy and· the present owner will jointly manage the island, with complete title reverting to the Conservancy within 30 years. Federal purchase of the island has also been proposed in a bill by Rep. Anthony Beilenson (D-Cal) which would expand Channel Islands National Monument and link it to a Santa Mor.ica MOUlltains National Seachore. The Conservancy agreeniti'nt makes no provision for eventual annexation into the National Park system (Loa !ngeles Times, 9/30/77).

Meanwhile, the Santa Monica Mountains, after 20 years of promotion by conservationists and several government a.,gencies, have become one of the hottest Federal park prospects in the country. Passage of Beilenson•s proposal for a national park and seashore is predicted in some form by Congress next year. In its present form, Beilenson1 s bill would establish the Channel Islands and Santa Monica Mountains National Park and Seashore. Al though no acreage figure is specified in the bill, it has been estimated that 30,000 to 40 1 000 acres would be acqnired on the ma.inland using $100 million authorized by the bill. Another $50 million would be used to acquire Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa Islands. The National Park would also incorporate Malibu Creek, Topanga and Point Mugu state parks. With the combined federal acquisitions and state parks, the total mainland acreage could reach 70,000 acres.

California Republican Congressmen Goldwater and Lagomarsino have introduced their own pro-posal for a National Santa Monica Urban Park which would require matching funding by state and local governments. The urban park would not be managed by the National Park Service but by a local park commission. With the Nature Conservancy's action to acquire and preserve Santa Cruz island, some of the urgency for Federal protection of the Channel Islands has been removed, and that element of Beilenson•s bill which proposes an expansion of Federal ownership in the Channel Islands will probably be eliminated. In fact, Congres'Sman Phillip llu.rton (D-Cal) has indicated that "the islands will have to be handled on a separate basis. The Santa Monica national park proposal faces a possible obstacle from the state of California, however. While supporting the park concept, Resources secretary Huey Johnston has indicated that the state my insist that compensation for state park lands included in the National Park must be made, either in cash or in the form of a land trade. Johnston insists that such compensa­tion woul.d result in additional parklands for southern Californians through further state acquisitions (Los A.ngeles Times, 10/6/77)

With respect to the state park system, Russell Cahill testified October 31st before an Assembly parks committee which wanted to know what is ho holding up a long list of park projects, some authorized as long ago as the 1960•s. In fact, the legislative analyst's office said the depart­ment has a backlog of about 90 projects worth

8

$194 million. The 1977-78 program involves an additional $107 million. Cahill told the committee that the bureaucratic maze is so complex that the state has trouble buying land for parks~even with legislative approval and the money. He was parti­cularly critical of being required to get the approval of the State Public Works Board and said the parks department, and not the state Department of General Services, should buy park land {Los Angeles Times, (11/2/77). -

In July a bill expanding Redwood National Park by 48,000 acres and giving the Secretary of Interior jurisdiction over logging outside the park was successfully steered out of the House Interior Subcommittee on national parks. By October, how­ever, the House bill had been stalled by labor lobbyists who had gone directly to the Speaker of the House and asked that the bill be kept from reaching the f1opr for a vote. Meanwhile, Sena tor Cranston (D-Cal) promised to push the Carte-r admin­istration1 s Redwood Park bill he sponsored in the Senate (Los !ngeles Times, 7/27/77 1 10/6/77).

In October, "a program to review nearly 68 million acres of national forest land for possible inclusion in the government's national wilderness system was announced in Albuquerque by Rupert Culter, assistant agricultre secretary.. Culter said previous "piecemeal" policies of designating wilderness areas~which are kept free of activities such as lumbering--have not been satisfactory. Culter promised that the public will be made "a full partner" in each step of the new selection process an_d recommendations on which areas should be proposed for wilderness status and those which no longer sho-uld be considered will be made public by December, 1978." (Los A.ngeles Times, 10/6/77)."

Legislation 1977 Ll'&ISLATIVE REPORT FOR THE ARCHAEOLOGICAL COMMUNITY

By DEAN GAUMER & CLYDE KUHN

The first part of the 1977-78 session of the California Legislature recessed at midnight on September 15th after approving, rejecting and indefinitely delaying action on a rrumber of el!V'ironmental quality, heritage preservation and archaeological bills.

Assembly Bills

~was sponsored by John Knox (D-11th District) on December 6 to prohibit any state agency from permitting archaeological excavation of a Native American burial ground abandoned for less than two hundred years until the Legislature has acted upon a report of the Native American Heritage Commission containing the findings of the Commission on Native American sacred places on public lands, unless the bu:rial site will be disturbed by an authorized public works or public utility project and the governing council of the Native Americans concerned gives its permission. After passage in the Assembly on Dec. 7, the bill was refe=ed to the Senate Governmental Organiza­tion Committee where, after amendment, it failed in second hearing.

AB 817 was introduced by Ba=y Keene (D-2nd Dist.) and coauthored by Senator Behr, on March 8 to delete the phrase "in a burial park" in the definition of a grave; to make it a misdemeanor to dig, take, or ca=y away from any parcel of public or private land, known or reasonably should be known to be a Native American Indian bu.rial site any sea.rth, soil or stone without the license of the owner or legal occupant; prohibit such action in connection with artifacts and human bone; and to increase the amount of fine to $5,000. After passage in the Assembly on June 23, the bill was re-referred to the Senate Committee on Judicia.:rJ after amendment and third hearing on August 25th.

AB 962, introduced by Vic Fazio (D-4th District) on March 16, would appropriate funds for deposit in a Park, Open Space and Historical Lands and Facilities Loan Account for emergency loans to cities, countires, regional park districts, and recreation and park districts from the Department of Parks and Recreation for the acquisition of park, open space, and historical lands and facilities. After consideration and approval by the Committee on Water, Parks and Wildlife, the bill was re­referred to the Ways and Means Committee where it remained in suspense at the time of recess.

AB 1948, introduced by Victor Calvo (D-21st District), would specify that nothing in the California Public Records Act shall require the disclosure of records disclosing locations of significant archaeological sites, as defined by regulations adopted by the State Historic Preservation Officer, except with respect to "bon. fide" persons, groups, or institu­tions as determined by that office. After first reading on May 12, the bill was referred to the Judiciary Committee.

AB 1977, introduced on May 25 by Assemblymen Maddy1 Hart, Kapiloff and Suitt with Senators Rains and Stull as coauthors, was for an appropriation for the state park system, including the acquisition of Ahwa.h.~ee Roundhouse constructed by local

9

Southern Miwok and Clrukchansi Yokuts (Madera. County), a ceremonial site known as the Bear Tu.nee Property significant to the Mai.du people (Lassen County), and land adjacent to El Presidio de Santa Barba.re. State Historic Park, was passed and sent to .. the Senate on June 23, where it failed in Fina.nee Committee (although with the possibility of recon-

, sideration granted).

The Assembly also considered a number of bills relating to environmental qua.li ty. Some Of'tiioae bills are noted below.

~was introduced by Richard Robinson (D-72nd District) on February 14 to pe:rmit a public agency to make the finding that changes or alterations necessary for carrying out a project for 'Which an EIR has been prepared are within the responsibility and jurisdiction of another agency, if that ~ncy dete:rmines that another public agency could more appropriately exercise jurisdiction. ':the bill would also require, instead cf the finding t:ha.t specific economic, social or other c'onsiderationa make unfeasible the mitigation measures or project alternatives identified in the EIR, a finding that such considerations make the mitigation measures or project alternatives which achieve substantially the same objectives of the project, identi.fied in the EIR, not feasible. The bill additionally proposes to revise legislative findings a.nd declaration as to when projects should be approved as proposed and as to the purpose of EIRs and to extend the pro­visions of existing law pertaining to the functioning of a "responsible" agency as opposed to f'unctions as a "lead" agency. This bill was in.Resoo.:roes, Land Use and Energy Committee at the time the Legislature recessed.

Speaker Leo McCarthy (D-18th District) carried Governor Brown's "Dow Chemical" inspired ~ to a 7Q-() vote approval in the last minute flurr,r of action prior to recess. AB 884 significantly revises existing law governing CEQA review and authorization by public agencies of development projects. The bill, among other things, specifically defines "developinent project;" requires any public agency that is the lead agency for a development p project to approve or deny such projects within one year from the date on which an application request­ing approval has been received; establishes speci­fied time limits for approval or disapproval of development projects by any public agency 'Which is a responsible agency, as fefined by CEQA; specifies that failure to act within the required time limits shall be deemed approval of the development project; requires each state agency by June 30, 1978, to compile lists which shall specify in detail the inf o:rma.tion which will be required from a:n:y appli­cant for a development project; requires the Of.fice of Planning and Research to the maximum extent feasible, tc consolidate hearings where a project requires approval by more than one agency; requires 1 in the case of projects involving the issuance of a lease, permit, licenae, certificate, or other

CORRECTION ON CLEARINGHOUSE SPLIT

The editor erred in stating in the October 1977 Newsletter (page 11) that Charles Dills will be Clearinghouse Coordinator of the new SCA District 15 in San Luis Obispo County. Dills is the State Regional Officer rather than coordinator.

Robert Hoover will be Clearinghoiise Coordinator for District 15. He has been serving with Michael Glassow to coordinate the combined San Luis Obispo­Santa :Barbara County district. Glassow continues as Coordinator for the Santa Barbara clearinghouse.

SCA ElCE'.mTIVE BOARD MEm'ING MINUTES October 21, 197?, Berkeley

Present: Joe Winter, Paul Chace, Dave Fredrickson, Nancy Walter, Clyde Kuhn, John Parker, Rob Jackson, Jay Flaherty, Linda King, Chester King, Steve Stoddard, Roger Werner, G. Fenenga.

1. Nominations/Elections -COlllJlli ttee: Russ Kaldenberg from Southern California and Ed Kandler from Northern California are forming and working on th.e Nominations/Elections Committee for 1978-1979 for SCA officers.

2. Erw!ronmental Affairs Committee: Joe Winter has received a letter of resignation from Paul Hampson as committee chairman. Those who are interested should contact the board as soon as possible <j.bout this chairmanship.

Joe Winter has sent a letter of concern to the EPA (with copies to SOPA and SAA) asking for peer review by an established archaeological/anthropo­logical organization. The Executive Board had felt that SCA needed to respond to the apparent lack of implementation of proper federal guidelines on the North Shore Wastewater project in San Francisco. Joe sent a similar letter to express SCA concern regarding the Casa Diablo project in Mono County.

Paul Chace reported on I-15. The project has now been approved with a slight redesign which means no sites will be damaged although some will be covered by fill.

Clyde Kuhn reported on Caso Hot Springs, within the China Lake Naval Weapons Center. The process of placing the Hot Springs on.the National Register proceeded smoothly until it was ready to leave the state level. The nomination is in Washington, but meeting great pressure from the Navy to kill the nomination. Clyde Kuhn reported on Boggs Mountain in Lake County on which the new Native American Heritage Commission is taking action. Clyde also

11

reported on the status of the Geothermal Plant in Imperial County. It appears that there was no inventory of all cultural resources as per 36CFHBOO requirements. Clyde requested that SCA start to develop a policy to deal with all geothermal activities.

Nancy Walter reported on the status of the Encino Village site that Northridge Archaeological Research Center had been working on with regard to compliance. The City of Loe Angeles and the developer are now in the process of putting the site up for bid and will comply with the wishes of NA.RC as well as the local Indian conmanity as a clari.fi­cation of the extent of cultural resources is determined.

Mendocino County needs to tietiten its EIR procedures in order to follow CEQA go.idelines. In a recent case, the Board of Superrl.sors nr.bber-­stamped an EIR.which did not include an archaeo­logical survey of the site (See nevs etor;r).

3. Publications COlllD.ittee: Joe Winter reported that Gary Breschini is working on a series o.f Cultural Resource Papers as well as a 'l'heoretical series. Paul Chace is de.ferring his report.for publication until a later time.

4. Directory: There was lengthy discussion concerning the role of SOPA and a directory o.f archaeological consultants. Some members of the Executive Board and others who were present felt that SCA should phase out directory publication as SOPA begins to expand and refine theirs. Others felt that SCA has an obligation to continue pub­lishing a listing of archaeologists a't'&ilable for consulting. While this matter renains to be con­tinued at some length, pla.DJi are under way for what may be the last SCA Directory. A mailing is being planned as well as notices in the Newsletter asking for all who want to be in this next edition to mail in the necessary material along rlth an $8.00 .fee to cover costs. The contents rlll be narrower and more refined and levels of competence spelled out. The new application forms are in print and will be sent to all members o.f the current Directory and all SCA members.

During the discussion it was pointed out that no matter where we are trained, there are limits to our ability to identify a site. An example was given of a site containing burials which two very competent California archaeologists (at various times in the past) had said was not a site, yet it later was shown to be an extensive site. Dis­cussion then centered on the process of education which archaeologists receive. What can we who are educators do? The educational role of all anthro­pologists/archaeologists is crucial!

5. Other Committees: Mary Brown sent a report on the Legal Affairs Committee via Paul Chace. She has been copying all available material that per-­tains to various legislation, ordinances, regula­tions, etc. There is hope that a budget allotment of some kind can be worked out to cover the cost o.f file folders,· postage, xerox, ~tc.

AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL ODYSSEY IV: WITHER TEE ANTIQUITIES ACT?

Enforcement Problems

Much attention has been directed in some circles toward "improving" the American Antiquities Act of 1906 (P,L, 59-209) in light of a court case in which the act was overturned in appeal as "fatally vague." Other incidents have been cited as emphasizing the "present dangerous legal situation" with respect to enforcing the act {see in particular pp. 15-17 of the Airlie House Report issued this year by the SAA). Mostly administrative cures have been sugges­ted by Federal legal authorities in the form of remedial language rul.emaking which would "define crucial terms in the Antiquities Act." How drastic­ally Federal authorities propose to "improve" the Antiquities Act is best demonstrated, however, by a new interpretation of the intent of the act.

Interpretive Chanp;es

The April 1977 issue of the National Park . Service's Office of Archeology and Historic Preserva­tion newsletter .1.!.22l features an article by Charles McKinney of the Interagency Archeological Services. In this article McKinney suggests that the permitting authority of the Antiquities Act was intended by Congress to apply only to archaeological resources or to paleontological specimens located within a cultural context. This interpretation would invali­date current administrative practice which require paleontological field investigations to be ':"1b~e:ted to Federal permit authorization and, more s1g:ru.f1-cantly, would remove protection of vertebrate paleon­tological fossil specimens located on Federally administered lands from the provisions of the act.

According to McKinney, policy changes are in progress on the Federal level focusing upon the control of vertebrate paleontological field investi­gations occurring under the authority of various Federal land management agencies. The legal basis of any new regulation would be separate from the Antiquities Act, and the Bureau of Land Management (BU!.) is envisioned as the lead agency responsible for developing a comprehensive collecting permit program for paleontological resources with the assistance of the paleontological community.

In spite of the intensity with which Federal authorities have argued that the Antiquities Act is unenforceable and in spite of how convincingly they narrow the act's applicability to only cultural remains and paleontological remains in a cultu:ra.1 context, the recent case of the "Old vomann meteorite has seriously eroded the credi­bility of their reasoning and once again demon­strates Federal inconsistency in the application and enf'orcement of cultural resource statutes and regulatio:os.

Arcnaeolog~ BY CLYDE KUHN

A Meteorite as "Antiquity"

In 1976 prospectors discovered a three foot by four foot iron meteorite weighing 6,070 pounds in the Old Woman Mountains southeast of Cadiz, California. The meteorite is the second largest ever found in the United States. The prospectors filed a claim for the land on which the meteorite had landed and notified the Smithsonian Institution of the find. By June 18th of this year, the Smithsonian's curator of meteor­ites was on hand as a Marine helicopter lifted the meteor out of the mountains for temporary display at the BI..~•s Riverside District Office prior to transportation to the Smithsonian where it was to be "sliced up and studied." Federal authorities justified the expropriation, inte::astir"61Y enough, on the basis of the Antiquities Act, "passed to prevent plunder of relics from government land" (apparently not all Federal offices read the NPS .1.1.22.l newsletter). Meanwhile, the prospectors filed for a restraining order with U.S. District Court to bar removal of the meteorite from southern California until they had been compensated, By June 29th, however, the court declined to grant the restraining order, upholding the government's assertion of entitlement to the meteor "as an American 'antiquity'".

The meteorite, however, remained on display rather than being immediately transported to the Smithsonian, eventually ending up at the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History by the end of July. By that time, State Attorney General Evelle Younger filed suit in Superior Court

• invoking a state statute on unique natural resouxces in an attempt to keep the meteorite in California rather than have it shipped to the Smithsonian. Although the Superior Court refused to grant a restraining order ba=ing removal because of uncertainty over legal jurisdiction, a u.s. District judge did issue a temporary restraining order on July 21st, acting on a request filed by San Bernardino County.

By September 7, California's Senator Cranston announced that Interior Secretary Andrus had decided to grant custody of the meteorite to California, while the Federal government retained title. At the same time the Los Angeles County Museum of Natural History and the San Bernardino County Museum were competing for custody. By mid-October, however, the "Old woma.n" meteorite was languishing in Federal hands at the BLM1s llarstow way Station, while the miners who had made the original discovery teasingly announced the existence of a larger, 3-ton meteorite named "Squaw Tom," "originally discovered in 1927 and only recently analyzed for authenticity." The prospectors said they were keeping the exact location of the meteorite secret because of the ownership controvery generated over the "Old Woman" meteor (above information obtained from the Modesto Bee, 6/17, 6/18/77; the San Francisco Sunday E::m.ininer and Chronicle, 6/19/77; Los An8eles Times, 6/30, • 7/~1, 7/22, 9/8 and 10/11/77; .and a BLM Riverside District Uffice news release, n..d.).

Implications

Does this ~lightly amusing and unquestionably curious tale have a moral?

There is 1 first of all, no little irony in the fact that the Smithsonian and BLM justified seizing the meteorite under the Antiquities Act in order to prevent it from being sold for jewelry by the pros­pectors, only so that it could be sliced up and studied for science. While the Antiquities Act clearly expresses a Federal intent to preserve American antiquities and to pe:rinit scientific study provided such study leads to an increase in knowledge and "pe:rinanent preservation," it does not express a blanket authority to procure or . condemn such antiquities in the interest of science, which was clearly the case in the "Old Woman" situa­tion. It hardly seems consistent with the act, moreover, to conduct the recovery of "very important scientific material" in order to preserve it from unauthorized removal when in fact this material was still located on Federally administered land and when the purpose of recovery was solely scientific study and not permanent preservation. Clearly, one of the problems with the Antiquities Act would seem to be abuse on the part of Federal authorities in its application!

One may also wonder if the Federal authorities bothered to demonstrate NEPA compliance prior to the removal of the meteorite. In other words, were the impacts of removing the meteorite from its terrestrial resting place assessed? Didn't removal compromise its scientific integrity? As an aside, it is interesting to note that existing regulations for the Antiquities Act specify that no pe:i:mit will be granted for the removal of any "ancient monument or structure" which can be permanently preserved in situ (and thereby remain an object of interest) under the control of the United States.

Equally important, this incident demonstrates that the Antiquities Act is quite enforceable, when enforcement is convenient for the Federal authorities. Federal attorneys would seem to have had no difficulty in successfully arguing for the removal of the meteorite from southern California and establishing Federal ownership under the authori­ty of the Antiquities Act before a Federal court in spite of the doubtful applicability of the a.ct in this case. In short, ample institutional support is forthcoming for the act when sufficient political pressure is applied at the appropriate level of the Federal establishment. Difficulties encountered in getting the a.ct enforced under normal situations can too often be attributed to the unwillingness, inability or timorousness of local Federal authorities to carry through on legitimate complaints ma.de against artifact collectors or other curio seekers who have been systematically plundering cultural resources on public land over the seventy-year life history of the act.

In fact, Federal authorities often justify not taking action on such complaints with politically motivated rationalizations, the best known of which must undoubtedly be those which suggest that a stronger case is needed, or that the judge may be an artifact collector and therefore unsympa­thetic to enforcement and so nwhy risk compro­mising the a.ct with an unfavorable decision?" The fa.ct; moreover, that taking action would upset the normal routine of the bureaucracy, a prospect repellent to administrators, is an additional non-political deterrent to enforcement.

15

Because Federal land management agencies have been so timid in enforcing the act and inept in prosecuting violations, the real effectiveness of the law has never been demonstrated. This is undoubtedly one of the unvoiced principal reasons why questions as to its protective scope and intent are now being raised. In fact, fear of an unfavo:v­able decision is one of the explicit reasons given for not appealing the most serious adverse inter­pretations of the act to the Supreme Court. Instead of advocating more vigorous application of the a.ct in order to clarify its authority, a commitment has been made to maintain the current indeterminacy. Somehow it doesn't seem logical to preserve the integrity of a law through failing to enforce i tl

The "Old Woman" incident also demonstrates that the Antiquities Act can be used to justify the preservation of more than cultural remains and paleontological specimens located in a cultural context, if it is convenient for the Federal authorities to make such an interpretation. Federal arguments about the legislative intent of the Antiquities Act as applying only to "archeological resources and paleontological specimens in a cultural context," as expressed in McKinney's article, are 9retty vell demolished by the actiona cf th~ EI.~ and the Smithsonian with respect to the meteorite, which by no stretch of the ima.gination can be classified as cultural in origin or a human anti­quity. Clearly, another of the problems vith the Antiquities Act would seem to be the inconsistency of Federal authorities in its application!

The latest Federal interpretation of the act, as expressed in McKinney's article, can also be criticized as too narrov. There are, in fact, innumerable non-<:mltu:ral features and objects, including vertebrate, invertebrate, pa.leobotanical remains, stratigraphic records, land.form remnants, geomorphologic a.:nd existing biogeographic features which ma.y not be in direct cultural association, but which are nevertheless essential to underst&nding past human activity and are consequently important elements of the cultural past. While not derzying the need for new Federal legislation directed specifically toward preserving vertebrate, inverte­brate and botanical paleontological remains as well as other natural features of human interest, such as meteorites, for their own sake, as objects of scientific relevance to human a.ntiqui ty many such features would seem to be already protected under the encompassing language of the Antiquities Act.

It would appear, therefore, that impending changes in the application and enforce111ent of the Antiquities Act by Federal authorities are likely, but may not altogether be the most appropriate resolution of Antiquities Act ambiguities. In fa.ct, changing Federal posture toward the Antiquities Act may be interpreted as a convenient political excuse for not enforcing a strict law in a meaning­ful. manner and as ~n attempt to rationalize the ineptitude and fa· ··re of 70 yea.rs o.f non-en:f'orce­ment just as much as it can be interpreted as a response to inherent flaws in the la.rigua.ge of the act.

ORANGE COUNTY HIRES ARCHAEOLOGICAL PLAlrnER

•Robert Sel;my III will start to work on Decem­ber 5th as Cultural and Scientific Resources Manager for Orange County. This position was created as a result of the joint proposal by PCAS (Pacific Coast .A:ixha.eological Society} and the Natural History Foundation of ()-range County for an archaeologist to review EIR's and to watch over sites endangered by construction. After the position was approved by the County Supervisors, a task force was appointed to evaluate the cultural resources of the county and make appropriate recommendations to ensure their protection. Dr. Keith Dixon and Roger Desautels served as archaeological advisors on this task force, and Dr. John Cooper served as paleontological advisor. Members of the County Staff and individuals from the building industry were also represented on the task force. The task force ~nerated a lengthy document which included a proposed policy for handling these resources. The County Supervisors accepted the document for filing and established the policy. One result of the policy was to unfreeze a position of Planner III, which will now be occupied by Mr. Selway.

"Mr. Selway received his Master of Arts degree in History/Archaeology from the University of California at Riverside and has worked at the State Office of Historic Preservation in Sacra~ento.

"As a further result of the above-mentioned policy, the County has established an official list of certified archaeologists, who may work as "Principal Investigators" in the preparation of archaeological elements of EIR's for the County. At present, the list include9 M. Cottrell, Dr. D. Van Ro:rne, N. Whitney, C. Drover, Dr. G. Rice, :pr. G. Stickel, (DrJ R. Greenwood, c. Cameron, J. ~adlock, P. Chace~·R. Carrico, and Dr. P. Ezell. (Since this article was written, R. Desautels has been added to the list by the Planning Commission). A similar list of paleontologists has been approved.

"The or:l.ginal PCAS/NHF proposal also recommended the hiring of a Mus.sum Curator in the Natural History fields, with particular concern for the archaeology and paleontology of the County. The Supervisors approved this recommendation, but froze the position until the task force on Cultural and Scientific Resources had completed their study and a policy had been approved. Subsequent developments of various causes have further delayed the filling of this position.

"A Museum Symposium was held last May under the sponsorship of the Orange County Historical Commission, the Natural History Foundation of Orange County, Archaeological Research, Inc., and the Museum of North Orange County. An 11-man task force was chosen by the 23 groups in attendance which, if approved by the County Supervisors, will address the needs for the establishment of a Museum of Natural History for the County. Meanwhile, a 5,000 square foot warehouse has been allocated as a repository for fossils and artifacts from within the County. PCAS has been delegated the responsilility, by the Natural History Foundation, to appoint a qualified volunteer to serve as interim curator for the archaeo­logical collections stored at the warehouse. It appears that the position of Museum Curator originally approved by the County may be broadened in scope.
