Submerged Cultural Resources Unit, 1990. viii SUBMERGED CULTURAL RESOURCES UNIT REPORT AND PUBLICATION SERIEB The Submerged Cultural Resources Unit was established in 1980 to conduct research on submerged cultural resources throughout the National Park System with an emphasis on historic shipwrecks. One of the unit‘s primary responsibilities is to disseminate the results of research to National Park Service managers, as well as the professional community, in a form that meets resource management needs and adds to our understanding of the resource base, A report series has been initiated in order to fulfill this responsibility, The following are the categories of reports that comprise this series. Subrnerqed Cultural Resources Assessment First line document that consists of a brief literature search, an overview of the maritime history and the known or potential underwater sites in the park, and preliminary recommendations for long-term management. It is designed to have application to GMP/DCP’s and to become a source document for a park’s Submerged Cultural Resources Management Plan. Subrnerqed Cultural Resources Survey Comprehensive examination of blocks of park lands for the purpose of locating and identifying as much 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 11. Phase I -- Reconnaissance of target areas with remote sensing and visual survey techniques to establish location of any archeological sites or anomalous features that may suggest the presence of archeological sites. Phase I1 -- 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. Submerqed Cultural Resources Study A document that discusses, in detail, all lcnown underwater archeological sites in a given park, This may involve test excavations. The intended audience is managerial and proEessional, not the general public, Submerqed Cultural Resources Site Report Exhaustive documentation or' one archeological site which may involve a partial or complete site excavation. The intended audience is primarily pro�essional and incidentally managerial I Although the document may be use-ful to a park's interpretive specialists because of its inforiiiation content, lit would probably not be suitable �or general distribution to park visitors I Submerqed Cultural Resources Specia:L Report Series These may be in published or photocopy format, Included are special coinmentaries, papers on methodological or technical issues pertinent to underwater archeology I or any miscellaneous report that does not appropriately fit into one of the other categories.
