(q) Education/Discovery Stipulation:
All persons in the area who are associated with this project must be informed that if anyone is
found disturbing historic, archaeological, or scientific resources, including collecting artifacts,
the person or persons will be subject to prosecution.
Pursuant to 43CFRlOA(g), the BLM authorized officer must be notified, by telephone, with
written confirmation, immediately upon the discovery of human remains, funerary items, sacred
objects, or objects of cultural patrimony. Further, pursuant to 43CFRlOA (c) and (d), activities
must stop in the vicinity of the discovery and the discovery must be protected for 30 days or until
notified to proceed by the authorized officer.
If in connection with operations under this contract the project proponent, his contractors,
subcontractors, or the employees of any of them, discovers, encounters or becomes aware of any
objects or sites of cultural or paleontological value or scientific interest such as historic or
prehistoric ruins, graves or grave markers, fossils, or artifacts, the proponent shall immediately
suspend all operations in the vicinity of the cultural or paleontological resource and shall notify
the BLM authorized officer of the findings (16 U.S.c. 470h-3, 36CFR800.112). Operations may
resume at the discovery site upon receipt of written instructions and authorization by the
authorized officer. Approval to proceed will be based upon evaluation of the resource.
Evaluation shall be by a qualified professional selected by the authorized officer from a federal
agency insofar as practicable. When not practicable, the holder shall bear the cost of the services
of a non-federal professional.
Within five working days the authorized officer will inform the holder as to:
- whether the materials appear eligible for the National Register of Historic Places;
- the mitigation measures the holder will likely have to undertake before the site can be used
(assuming in situ preservation is not necessary); and,
- a time frame for the authorized officer to complete an expedited review under 36CFR800.11,
or any agreements in lieu thereof, to confirm through the State Historic Preservation Officer
that the findings of the authorized officer are correct and the mitigation is appropriate.
The proponent may relocate activities to avoid the expense of mitigation and/or the delays
associated with this process, as long as the new area has been appropriately cleared of resources
and the exposed materials are recorded and stabilized. Otherwise, the proponent will be
responsible for mitigation costs. The authorized officer will provide technical and procedural
guidelines for the conduct of mitigation. Upon verification from the authorized officer that the
required mitigation has been completed, the proponent will then be allowed to resume
construction.
Antiquities, historic ruins, prehistoric ruins, paleontological or objects of scientific interest that
are outside of the authorization boundaries but directly associated with the impacted resource
will also be included in this evaluation and/or mitigation.

Antiquities, historic ruins, prehistoric ruins, paleontological or objects of scientific interest,
identified or unidentified, that are outside of the authorization and not associated with the
resource within the authorization will also be protected. Impacts that occur to such resources,
that are related to the authorizations activities, will be mitigated at the proponent's cost including
the cost of consultation with Native American groups.
