Book Description
At the request of the U.S. Navy Atlantic Division, Naval Facilities Engineering Command (LANTDIV), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Mandatory Center of Expertise for the Curation and Management of Archaeological Collections (MCX-CMAC), located at the St. Louis District, conducted a survey of archaeological collections and associated documentation generated from archaeological investigations conducted within the boundaries of LANTDIV facilities located in North Carolina, Puerto Rico, Virginia, and West Virginia. Site visits were conducted during 1994 to assess the archaeological collections. MCX-CMAC identified collections from 14 LANTDIV facilities, totaling 198 cubic feet of artifacts and approximately 20 linear feet of associated documentation. Most collections require at least partial rehabilitation to comply with federal regulation 36 CFR Part 79, Curation of Federally-Owned and Administered Archeological Collections.

Book Description
Federal archeological collections and associated documentation are priceless national resources, a legacy to the American public. Their care and conservation has been mandated by Congress since 1906. Unfortunately, the proper care and management of these materials has been largely ignored or underfunded. Many of our nation's heritage resources have been placed and then abandoned in the attics, basements, and storage closets of countless facilities across the United States. Others have been illegally transported to Europe, where they remain today. The result has been a steady deterioration of the collections, which include many significant objects associated with long vanished cultures as well as existing Native American communities. Federally sponsored mitigation programs usually provide for the recovery of materials from archeological sites, analyses of the recovered items, publication and circulation of final reports, and placement of collections in storage facilities for preservation, display, or future study. In the past, federal agencies gave little attention to the maintenance of collections once salvage programs were completed. Through the years, archeological collections were curated at no expense to the federal government by the various universities, museums, firms, and state repositories holding them. Unfortunately, the lack of funding and inadequate facilities now seriously hinder these institutions' ability to adequately care for the collections. Standards and guidelines for the preservation of federal archeological collections are set forth in 36 CFR Part 79, Curation of Federally-Owned and Administered Archeological Collections. However, the preservation and management procedures for many federal archeological collections are demonstrably substandard, clearly falling below the standards and guidelines required of federal agencies.

Book Description
Under the agreement of the Legacy Resource Management Program, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Mandatory Center of Expertise for the Curation and Management of Archaeological Collections (MCX-CMAC), located at the St. Louis District, conducted an investigation of all archaeological materials and associated records in the care of NAS North Island, Edwards Air Force Base, Fort Irwin, and MCAGCC Twentynine Palms from July 22, 1992, to October 19, 1992, and September 16-20, 1993. The inspections of 18 separate repositories, including four military installations in 2 different states, produced evidence documenting widespread deterioration and neglect of many of the Air Force, Army, and Navy archaeological collections. None of the 18 repositories are in full compliance with 36 CFR Part 79 (Curation of Federally-Owned and Administered Archaeological Collections) and one-half were not designed for, or adapted to, the requirements of a modem curation center.

Only four (Charleston Air Force Base, South Carolina; Dover Air Force Base, Delaware; Scott Air Force Base, Illinois; and Travis Air Force Base, California) of the 13 installations researched by the MCX had generated archaeological collections, which includes the artifacts and the associated documentation. In sum, approximately 19 ft 3 of artifacts and approximately 10 linear feet of records from AMC installations are being curated by nine repositories in four different states. All collections require at least partial rehabilitation to comply with Federal regulations, and 44% of the collections require complete rehabilitation.
