It was established as a unit in 1980 to conduct research on submerged cultural resources throughout the National Pa rk System with an emphasis on historic shipwrecks . One of the unit • s prinary responsibilities is to disseminate the results of research to National Pa rk Service nanagers as well as the professional community in a form that meets resource nanagement needs and adds to our understanding of the resource base. The following publication and report series has been initiated in order to fulfill this responsibility . The report "types" listed below represent the sequential stages of research activity that the unit is conducting or initiating in each park with a submerged cultural resources base. The reports are designed to be CUIlative so that , in the ideal case , each narine or freshwater park would eventually have a "maritime archeolOgy" publication which �mld have been preceded in rrost cases by an assessment, survey and inventory. This would put the parks in compliance with any reasonable professional and legal requirement to protect and .interpret the underwater cultural resources under their custodianship. Cultural Resources Assessment First line document that consists of a brief literature search, an overview of the maritime history and the known or potential underw:tter sites in the park , and preliminary recommendations for long-tenn nanagement. Designed to have application to GMP/DCP' s and to become a source document for a park's SUbmerged Cultural Resources Management Plan . Cultural Resources Comprehensive examination of blocks of park lands fo r the purpose of locating and identifying as nuch of the submerged cultural resources base as possible. A comprehensive literature search would most likely be a part of the Phase I report but , in some cases , may be postponed until Phase II. Phase I - Reconnaissance of target areas with rernbte sensing and visual survey techniques to establish location of any archeological sites or anomalous features that may suggest the presence of archeological sites . Phase II - Evaluation of archeological sites or anomalous features derived from remote sensing instruments to confirm their nature, and if possible , their significance . This may involve exploratory removal of overburden . v Cultural Resources A document that discusses , in detail , all known underwater archeological sites in a given park . This may involve test excavations . The intended audience is managerial and professional, not the general public . Site Exhaustive documentation of one archeological site which may involve a partial or COI1lete site excavation. The intended audience is primarily professional and incidentally managerial. Altrough the document may be useful to a park• s interpretive specialists because of its information oontent, it �uld probably not be suitable for general distribution to park visitors . Maritime Series This is a series of publications on specific parks designed fo r appeal to a general audience including subject matter specialists , managers and the public at large , e.g. , The of Isle National Park . It fulfills an educational and interpretive function but meets professional standards in accuracy and substance . These may be in published or photocopy fo rmat. Included are special commentaries, papers on methodological or technical issues pertinent to underwater archeology , or any miscellaneous report that does not appropr iately fit into one of the other categories .

  • Park Report Part 1
    Alcatraz Island Golden Gate National Recreation Area Physical History PRE-EUROPEAN (Pre-1776) Before Europeans settled in San Francisco, the area was inhabited by Native American groups including the Miwok, in the area north of San Francisco Bay (today’s Marin County), and the Ohlone, in the area south of San Francisco Bay (today’s San Francisco peninsula). Then, as today, Alcatraz had a harsh environment –strong winds, fog, a lack of a fresh water source (other than rain or fog), rocky terrain –and there was only sparse vegetation, mainly grasses. These conditions were not conducive to living on the island. These groups may have used the island for a fishing station or they may have visited it to gather seabird eggs since the island did provide a suitable habitat for colonies of seabirds. However, the Miwok and Ohlone do not appear to have lived on Alcatraz or to have visibly altered its landscape, and no prehistoric archeological sites have been identified on the island. (Thomson 1979: 2, Delgado et al. 1991: 8, and Hart 1996: 4). SPANISH AND MEXICAN PERIOD (1776-1846) Early Spanish explorers into Alta California encountered the San Francisco Bay and its islands. (Jose Francisco Ortega saw the bay during his scouting for Gaspar de Portola’s 1769 expedition, and Pedro Fages described the three major islands –Angel, Alcatraz, and Yerba Buena –in his journal from the subsequent 1772 expedition.) However, the first Europeans to record their visit to Alcatraz were aboard the Spanish ship San Carlos, commanded by Juan Manuel de Ayala that sailed through the Golden Gate and anchored off Angel Island in August 1775.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION The purpose of this book is twofold: to provide general information for anyone interested in the California islands and to serve as a field guide for visitors to the islands. The book covers both general history and nat- ural history, from the geological origins of the islands through their aboriginal inhabitants and their marine and terrestrial biotas. Detailed coverage of the flora and fauna of one island alone would completely fill a book of this size; hence only the most common, most readily observed, and most interesting species are included. The names used for the plants and animals discussed in this book are the most up-to-date ones available, based on the scientific literature and the most recently published guidebooks. Common names are always subject to local variations, and they change constantly. Where two names are in common use, they are both mentioned the first time the organism is discussed. Ironically, in recent years scientific names have changed more recently than common names, and the reader concerned about a possible discrepancy in nomenclature should consult the scientific literature. If a significant nomenclatural change has escaped our notice, we apologize. For plants, our primary reference has been The Jepson Manual: Higher Plants of California, edited by James C. Hickman, including the latest lists of errata. Variation from the nomenclature in that volume is due to more recent interpretations, as explained in the text. Certain abbreviations used throughout the text may not be immedi- ately familiar to the general reader; they are as follows: sp., species (sin- gular); spp., species (plural); n.

    92d Congress, 1st Session --------- House Document No. 92-102 FARALLON NATIONAL WILDLIFE REFUGE CALIFORNIA COMMUNICATION FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES TRANSMITTING FOURTEEN PROPOSALS TO ADD TO THE NATIONAL WILDERNESS SYSTEM PART 10 APRIL 29, 1971. —Referred to the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs and ordered to be printed with illustrations U.S. GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE WASHINGTON : 1971 LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL1 THE WHITE HOUSE WAS H I NGTON April 28; 1971 Dear Mr. Speaker: The Wilderness Act of September 3, 1964, declared it to be the policy of the Congress to secure for the American people of present and future generations the benefits of an enduring resource of wilderness, and for that purpose the act established a National Wilderness Preservation System. In my special message on the environment of February 8, 1971, I stressed the importance of wilderness areas as part of a comprehensive open space system. In these un- spoiled lands, contemporary man can encounter the character and beauty of primitive America -- and learn, through the encounter, the vital lesson of human interdependence with the natural environment. Today, I am pleased to transmit fourteen proposals which would add to the National Wilderness System vast areas where nature still predominates. These areas are briefly described below. (1) Simeonof National Wildlife Refuge, Alaska -- 25,140 acres of a unique wildlife environment: the bio- logically productive lands and waters of Simeonof Island off the coast of Alaska. (2) North Cascades National Park, Washington — 515,880 acres in two areas in North Cascades Park and Ross Lake and Lake Chelan National Recreation Areas.
