Dear Dr.iMcManamon:

This is in response to a letter to Chairman Zech dated December 19, 1988, from Dr. Bennie C. Keel requesting the information needed to prepare the Annual Report' to Congress on the Federal Archeology Program for Fiscal Year'1988. The enclosed questionnaire has been completed with appropriate information pertaining to licensees authorized by the NRC to operate. nuclear power plants.

The NRC does not require, maintain, or restore any archeological or historic proporties identified during the environmental review process. When NRC determines that mitigative. measures are required to protect such properties, the licensees are required to take appropriate actions. These mitigative measures are formalized as a condition of the Appendix B (Environmental Protection Plan) attached to the licenses authorizing operation of the nuclear power plants. 'As a permitting Agency, the NRC does not incur any. direct costs associated with the protection or enhancement of archeological and historic resources.

Sincerely, Original Signed by gpgE.M10&

1 Fiscal Year 1988 Questioraalre

)

The Federal Archeology Program is part of the larger National Historic Preservation

{

Program which operates by authority of various statutes and regulations written to carry the m out.

The Secretary of the Interior is charged with providing guidance and coordination for Federal archeology and for preparing the report to Congress on Federal archeological activities.

This role is accomplished for the Secretary by the Departmental Consulting Archaeologist, who also servet as the Assistant Director of Archeology within the National Park Service.

A number of statutes, such as the National Historic Preservation Act (N RP A) (P.L.95-515), give the Secretary of the Interior responsibility to guide and coordinate Federal historic preservation activities. This is especially so regarding the Federal Archeology Progra m.

The Secretary is required by Section 5(c) of the Archeological and Historic Preservation Act,(ABPA) (P.L.93-291) and Section 13 of the Archaeological Resources Protection Act (ARP A) (P.L. 96-95), to report to Congress various activities of the Federal Archeology Program. This questionnaire is designed to provide data for the Secretary's report.

Under the National Historic Preservation Act 16 USC 470, as amended, Federal agencias have the general responsibility to cooperate with the Secretary by providing information concerning archeological activities as well as other historic preservation activities. To some extent the questions here may also be relevant to wider preservation issues. The topics covered by the questionnaire and the specific questions have been developed with com ments by archaeologists and historic preservation officers throughout the Federal government. The format and questions below have been modified based upon review of the FY 1987 questionnaire with the intent of making the questionnaire easier to understand, complete, and data more comparable.

Unless otherwise stated, each question refers to activities in FY 1988. Both objective and narrative questions are employed in this questionnaire to collect data concerning Federal archeological activities occurring during FY 1988 (October 1,1987 to September 30, 1988). Several of the narrative questions appeared on the FY 1987 questionnaire. If you addressed them in FY 1987 and have no addition information please indicate so. If you have updated or new information please provide it in the appropriate section. For this questionnaire two narrative questions and a form have been added to colleet data concerning recent a mendments to the Archaeological Resources Protection Act.

    • The acreage reflected in this questionnaire response involves plants that have cultural resources requirements stated in the Appendix B (Environmental Protection Plan) for licenses authorizing the operation of the following plants : Millstone 3. San Onofre 2/3, Vogtle, Hope Creek, Susquehanna, Diablo Canyon, Braidwood, Palo Verde, Callaway and Waterford.

In addition, the Trojan plant is included because of unanticipated archeological discoveries during FY 1988.

In ' regard to the Callaway plant, there are approximately 25 sites potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Properties (NRHP).

NRC requested an eligibility determination from the Keeper of the NRHP, which has not been rr.ndered yet because of the licensee's ongoing negotiations with the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO). The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation is currently reviewing all of the documentation to recommend a plan for resolution.

H24(436)

DEC I 9 E The Honorable Lando W. Zech, Jr.

Chairman Nuclear Regulatory Commission 1717 H St. N.T.

Washington, D.C. 20555

Dear Mr. Zech:

Each year the Secretary of the Interior prepares a report to Congress on Federal archeological activities. The current version of this report has proven especially useful for Federal agencies and Congressional committees in amending the Archaeological!

Resources Protection Act to improve its law enforcement provisions. The current report also provides a baseline description of the kinds and extent of Federal archeology. It is expected that this and future reports will prove to be generally helpfulin many ways.

As indicated in Sections 2 and 101(h) of the National Historic Preservation < Act (NHPA),

(as amended)

P.L.95-515, assernbling, analyzing, and disseminating technical information; providing assistance with professional methods and techniques for archeological preservation; and administering the historic preservation program are part of the Secretary of the Interior's responsibility to provide leadership in the preservation of the prehistoric and historic resources of the United States. The Secretary also is required by the Archeological and Historic Preservation Act of 1974 (as amended) P.L.93-291, and the Archaeological Resources Protection. Act of 1979 (ARPA) (as amended)

P.L. 96-95 to report to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee and the j

House Interior and Insular Affairs Committee of the United States Congress, on Federal archeological activities.

To assist in the preparation of this report for Fiscal Year 1983, as in past years, I am requesting that you complete and return the enclosed questionnaire within 90 days of receipt of this letter (on or before March 15, 1989).

All major sections that appeared in the FY 1987 report questionnaire are part of the FY 1988 questionnaire. In some sections, questions that appeared as separate questions in FY 1987 ha/e been combined into a single response, while other questions have been eliminated completely. In Section F (Data Recovery), questions dealing with types of research questions addressed by projects have been deleted.

Data Recovery is now divided into projects conducted to mitigate an adverse impact or to achieve a l

determination of "no adverse" effect, i.e. Section 106 (NHPA) and data recovery projects conducted for reasons other than compliance. This distinction will assist in collecting data relating to recent amendments to the Archaeological Resources Protection Act.

Overall the total number of questions has been decreased for the FY 1988 questionnaire, in addition to the above modifications the following minor modifications have been made:

(1) questions have been numbered consecutively to allow easier use especially for those using computers to compile data, (2) additional notes have been added to questions to clarify targeted data, (3) narrative questions are now included under the appropriate heading as opposed to being located at the end of the questionnaire, and two narrative 8

l.

l l

e questions have been added to collect data on two recent amendments to ARPA, while three questions have been deleted. With respect to the recent amendments to ARPA, the I

LOOT Clearinghouse-Case Summary form has been added to assist in collecting information on violations of this Act.

Response to the FY 1987 questionnaire was very good, over 90% of the agencies queried provided detailed responses. These data have been entered into computer spreadsheets and report preparation is underway. The report based on data provided for FY 1985 and FY 1986 has been completed'and is presently undergoing internal review. The Table of Contents from this report is enclosed for your information. As a result of the level of response, the combined annual report for FY 1985 and FY 1986 is the most o

comprehensive report on Federal archeology activities prepared to date.

The information provided for FY 1987 should allow a similar level of reporting.

With submittal of the FY 1988 data there will be, for the first time, four years of comparable data.

For FY 1988,in addition to analysis at the national level, we would like to collect data in a way that would allow more precise analysis. Analysis of data subdivided by field offices for large agencies would greatly increase the ef festiveness of identifying Federal archeological activity problems and better facilitate development of recommendations to improve the situation. Although this data request is optional it would provide more detailed information for analysis if responses to questionnaires were provided by regional, state, or division of fice, by the larger agencies i.e. BLM, Corps of Engineers, FWS, the military services, Forest Service, NPS, and Reclamation.

In order to assist departments / agencies in completing the questionnaire, Questionnaire Guidelines are enclosed.

Please send the completed questionnaire, on or before March 15,1988, to Dr. Francis P.

McManamon, Chief, Archeological Assistance Division, National Park Service, P.O. Box 37127, Washington, D.C. 20013-7127. If you have any questions, please feel free to call George S. Smith at (202) 343-4101, FTS 343-4101. We look forward to your response.

On behalf of Congress and the Secretary of Interior,I would like to thank you in advance for your response to this request and your support in previous years.

Sincerely, y_:;"

FY 1988 Q UESTIO N N AIRE FO R THE SEC R ETAR Y'S AN N U AL REPO kT TO CO NG RESS ON THE FEDER AL ARCHEOLOGY PROGR AM G UID ELIN ES Introduction The Federal Archeology Program is part of the larger National Historic Preservation Program which operates by authority of various statutes and regulations written to carry the m out.

The Secretary of the Interior is charged with providing guidance and coordination for Federal archeology and for preparing the annual report to Congress on Federal archeological activities.

This role is accomplished for the Secretary by the Departmental Consulting Archaeologist, who also serves as the Assistant Director of Archeology within the National Park Service.

The Federal Archeology Program functions by integrating the values of preservation, research, and education with the individual missions of each department / agency, none of which has archeology as a primary mission. Each has its own internal organization to comply with Federal mandates concerning archeological resources. The way in which different departments / agencies are involved in the Federal Archeology Program is dependent upon their function within the govern m ent.

Some are responsible for managing large amounts of land or other kinds of resources.

These agencies are responsible for the care of important archeological resources under their control Other departments / agencies function to help other levels of government, or the private sector, to develop resources and facilities. They are responsible for seeing that developments that they facilitate, license or fund do not wantonly destroy important archeological resources. Some departments / agencies have responsibilities in both areas.

Because of the different roles, departments / agencies can take very different approaches to how they meet their archeological responsibilities. Some have large archeological staffs to handle their responsibility, while others have passed along the responsibility for accomplishing the actual archeological activities to state or local agencies that are undertaking the development action.

Instructions for Completing the FY 1988 Questionnaire Question Responses: Due to the range of missions and responsibilities of various govern mental agencies, not all questions will apply to each agency. For example, not all agencies issue per mits. Although questions can be approached differently,it isimportant that uniform terms be be used to facilitate data input and comparison. For the FY 1988 questionnaire, each set of questions is followed by a section to allow for further discussion of responses if necessary.

Please provide a co m p=6 questionnaire sua aerizing information collected froa regkons., dastricts, divimons, etc. If possible, please provide data for individual regions, states, project offices, com mands, divisions, etc., to allow regional, as well as, national level evaluation of data. It is understood that hard data may not be available for some questions and that knowledgeable estimates m ust be m ade.

l:

h l

l In completing the questionnaire, please fill out each line with data or with the following abbreviations ONLY:

NA (Not Applicable). This term should only be used to indicate that the agency has no responsibility for this activity.

If a section or a question has subsections / questions, please fillin each line with N A. N A should not be used to indicate that there is no data to report or that the answer is zero (0). For exa mple, agencies that do not issue permits or deal with enforce ment would' respond to these questions with N A.

ND (No Data to Report). This term should be used to indicate that although the.

agency conducts such activities no data is available for FY 1988.

For exa mple, if data was not available for how many FTEs were used for certain activities, the response would be N D. If data is not available for some other reason, use N D, but also indicate the reason (s) in the caveats section.

O Iero (0). This response should only be used to indicate the absence of a quantity (nothing). Zero should not be used to indicate lack of data. This l

term should be used to indicate that although the agency conducts such activities, no activities took place during FY 1988. For example,if an agency did not have any undertakings that included data recovery, the answer to a question asking about the number of data recovery projects conducted would be zero (0).

In the event that a Department / Agency takes the position that the entire questionnaire is not applicable, please return the uncompleted questionnaire with an appropriate cover letter of explanation. Notification made in this manner will be considered as a response to the questionnaire for purposes of the annualreport to Congress.

Percents (%): Raw data on which percents are figured are requested to assist in comparing data within agencies and between agencies. Percents should be rounded to the nearert tenth of a percent, e.g. 95.54 % would be 95.5 %.

Dollar A mounts ($): Round all dollar amounts to the nearest dollar, and specify if a mounts are gross estimates.

FTE - (Full-tim e Equivalency)

An FTE is equal to one person working full-time for one year. Percent of FTEs can.9 figured accordingly, e.g. 0.5 FTE equals one person working for 1/2 year.

Department / Agency Na mes and Abbreviations: The first time any department /agancy na me is used, please spell it out followed by the abbreviation, e.g. Bureau of tand Manage ment (BLM). Please do the same for any department / agency specific na mes or progra ms, e.g. Archeological Assistance Division (A A D), Alaska Regione.1 Office ( A R 4, National Archeological Database (N ADB).

o Caveats: Analysis, Interpretation, or Clarification: This section follows each set of questions and Js provided to allow agencies to further explain, evaluate, clarify, and more accurately portray specific. information concerning the response.

For example, an agency might indicate that a response represents some but not all regions, districts, or divisions. Use arabic numbers to correspond caveats with specific responses.

Narrative Questions: Provide answers to the narrative questions on a separate sheet.

If you responded to the narrative questions on the FY 1987 questionnaire, please provide any updated infor mation. Narrative information should be compiled from regions, states, project offices, coa aands, divisions, etc., as part of the coapr=nte qua=Harinaire.

Please regond to all 7-Waam with either a response or N A, ND.

Responses to the narrative questions were an excellent source of information and added greatly to the overall content of the FY 1985/FY 1986 (in review) and the FY 1987 (in progress) annual reports.

D epart m ent/ Agency Highlights:

This section provides an opportunity for departm ents/ agencies to highlight, interpret, and evaluate their archeological activities.

Topics discussed might include specific archeological surveys and excavations, public awareness activities (publications, reports, brochures, exhibits, lectures, films, videos, awards, education progra ms, site protection programs, etc.)

interagency, intergovernmental, and international cooperation, or any other activities that reflect the agencies participation in the Federal Archeology Program. This section should not exceed two (2) double-spaced type-written pages.

Photographs: Please submit black and white photographs (at least 5 x 7) depicting I

Federal archeological activities. Although Black and white photographs are preferred, color photographs or slides will be accepted. On the back of each photograph please print the appropriate caption (identify people by name and position) and photographic credit line.

Submittal Data: As with previous years, questionnaires are due 90 days after receipt of letter by agency. Therefore, questionnaires should be returned on or before Natch 15, 1989. Please callif it appears that this deadline will not be met. Your cooperation in meeting this a mbitious schedule will be greatly appreciated.

Questions: If you have any questions concerning the questionnaire please call George S.

Smith or Frank McManamon in the National Park Service, Archeological Assistance Division (202) 343-4101, FTS 343-4101.

ANNU AL REPORT TO CONGRESS BY THE SEC RET AR Y OF THE INTER *.O R ON THE FEDER AL ARCHEOLOGY PR'JGR AM Fiscal Year 1988 Quest 2onnaste The Federal Archeology Program is part of the larger National Historic Preservation Program which operates by authority of various statutes and regulations written to carry the m out.

The Secretary of the Interior is charged with providing guidance and coordination for Federal archeology and for preparing the report to Congress on Federal archeological activities.

This role is acco mplished for the Secretary by the Departmental Consulting Archaeologist, who also serves as the Assistant Director of Archeology within the National Park Service.

A number of statutes, such as the National Historic Preservation Act (N H P A) (P.L.95-515), give the Secretary of the Interior responsibility to guide and coordinate Federal historic preservation activities. This is especially so regarding the Federal Ucheology Progra m.

The Secretary is required by Section 5(c) of the Archeological and Historic Preservation Act,(AHP A) (P.L.93-291) and Section 13 of the Archaeological Resources Protection Act (A R P A) (P.L. 96-95), to report to Congress various activities of the Federal Archeology Progra m.

This questionnaire is designed to provide data for the Secretary's report.

Under the National Historic Preservation Act 16 USC 470, as amended, Federal agencies have the general responsibility to cooperate with the Secretary by providing information concerning archeological activities as well as other historic preservation activities. To some extent the questions here may also be relevant to wider preservation issues. The topics covered by the questionnaire and the specific questions have been developed with com ments by archaeologists and historic preservation officers throughout the Federal government. The format and questions below have been modified based upon review of the FY 1987 questionnaire with the intent of making the questionnaire easier to understand, complete, and data more comoarable.

Unless otherwise stated, each question refers to activities in FY 1988. Both objective and narrative questions are e mployed in this questionnaire to collect data concerning Federal archeological activities occurring during FY 1988 (October 1,1987 to Septe mber 30, 1988). Several of the carrative questions appeared on the FY 1987 questionnaire. If you addressed them in FY 1?87 and have no addition information please indicate so. If you have updated or new information please provide it in the appropriate section. For this questionnaire two narrative questions and a form have been added to collect data concerning recent a mendments to the Archaeological Resources Protection Act.
