FEDERAL LAWS In addition to the ARPA Laws, an additional Federal law called "Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987" is in effect and is being enforced. This law gives the individual States control over historic shipwrecks lying within 3 miles of the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts and 10 miles off of the Gulf Coast.
DISTANCE MEASUREMENTS NOTE: All distance measurements for sites are direct from point A to point B and are NOT road measurements. Distance measurements are taken from the center of one point to the center of the center of the other. Linear measurements are usually accurate to one tenth mile (1/1 oth mile) while Latitude and Longitude coordinates are accurate to one thousandth of one minute, which equates to approximately 30 feet, depending on the accuracy of your GPS.
WHAT IS A GHOST TOWN? There have been many inquiries as to how we have determined what establishes the parameters for ghost town status. While the dictionary definition is not satisfactory for our usage, Mosquito Publishing has used the following:
That a town or settlement was at one time a thriving and viable community. That it subsequently declined to the point that it was virtually abandoned or deserted.
It was a rule of thumb that communities were established on good land. That being the case, even though the original town may have declined to ghost town status, as modern communities expand, they often cover the site of the previous settlement. This occurrence is happening more rapidly as our population expands. The site would still be considered as a ghost town site, even if covered by modern construction and no visible signs of the original town exists. ABBEVILLE COUNTY

METAL DETECTION POLICY
It is the policy of South Carolina State Parks Division to protect all archaeological and historical resources on state parks property. These resources are held in trust by the Parks Division for all the people of South Carolina.

For this reason, no digging associated with the use of metal detectors is permitted on any state property.
At the discretion of the park superintendent, a permit may be given for surface collecting only in picnic areas and use areas on some parks.
Historical items are to be turned over to the superintendent, as are personal items such as rings and bracelets, which may have been reported missing. If not claimed, they become the property of the finder.
Metal detectors are prohibited in al camping and cabin areas, golf courses and other use areas which may be restricted.
Metal detectors are absolutely prohibited on the following parks: Old Santee Canal, Old Dorchester, Hampton Plantation, Redcliffe, Rose Hill, Landsford Canal, Oconee Station, Long Bluff, Rivers Bridge, Hanging Rock, Musgrove Mill and the Lighthouse Complex at Hunting Island.

SHORT TITLE

FINDINGS AND PURPOSE

(2) these resources are increasingly endangered because oftheir commercial attractiveness;
(3) existing Federal laws do not provide adequate protection to prevent the loss and destruction ofthese archaeological resources and sites resulting from uncontrolled excavations and pillage; and
(4) there is a wealth ofarchaeological information which has been legally obtained by private individuals for noncommercial purposes and which could voluntarily be made available to professional archaeologists and institutions.
(b) The purpose ofthis Act is to secure, for the present and future benefit ofthe American people, the protection ofarchaeological resources and sites which are on public lands and Indian lands, and to foster increased cooperation and exchange of information between governmental authorities, the professional archaeological community, and private individuals having collections ofarchaeological resources and data which were obtained before the date ofthe enactment ofthis Act.
