BLM OR-WA Iceberg Point Cultural Fieldschool: In 2013, BLM administered lands in the San Juan Islands Archipelago were designated the San Juan Islands National Monument for the important and unique historical, cultural, and natural values that occur on the lands within the Monument. Management of historical and cultural objects and values within the Monument is needed to ensure they are maintained and protected for the benefit of the American public. Intensive cultural resource inventory is needed to identify resources that contribute to the important cultural objects and values for which the Monument was designated. Archaeological Field schools provide opportunities in conducting cultural resources investigation. Completion of an archaeological field school is a requirement for students pursuing future employment as an archaeologist or cultural resource professional.
The overall objective of a fieldschool is to collect data that would identify important cultural properties and benefit future management of BLM administered lands at Iceberg Point in the San Juan Islands National Monument. Specific objectives would include but not be limited to:
(1) Identification of important cultural resources and values through intensive inventory of approximately 100 acres of BLM administered land;
(2) Completion of site and isolated find records for any cultural resources identified by the investigation;
(3) Completion of a professional report of investigation that would describe the cultural, historical, and ethnographic background and environmental overview for the project area, methods used for identification of cultural resources, results of the investigation, provide National Register eligibility recommendations, and recommendations for future management of the cultural properties;
(4) Submission of completed site and isolated find records meeting BLM and Washington Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation standards;
(5) Education and training for fieldschool students;
(6) Involvement and participation of members of local Native American tribes and communities in the fieldschool.
