MEETINGS 2018 SCA ANNUAL MEETING EVENTS PLENARY SESSION: PRESERVING CALIFORNIA’S CHERISHED HERITAGE: OUR SHARED RESPONSIBILITY The Plenary session will be two parts. One will be a celebration of the diversity found historically within California. Presentations on lesser represented cultural groups will be highlighted as examples of the multi-cultural components of the history of California and the dream of success that compelled and continues to compel many different people from around the globe to come to the Golden State in search of the California Dream. The second part of the Plenary will focus on new ideas in archaeology, primarily a new program promoted by Micah Hale that proposes to make use of Cultural Resources mitigation banking and funding. Customized cultural resources mitigation banking is emerging as a solution to resolve conflicts regarding resource treatment. Mitigation banking can provide acceptable solutions to problems ranging from project implementation infractions, to disagreements between agencies, Tribes, and archaeologists about the disposition of archaeological collections. The San Diego Archaeological Center (SDAC) developed a customizable mitigation bank that is fund-driven and agency controlled. It serves as a good starting point for discourse on the complex problems facing cultural resource management today RECEPTION/SILENT AUCTION FUNDRAISER (Preregistration Required) The night of Friday, March 9th, is the ever-popular Silent Auction event. We’re staying onsite once again in 2018
