Cultural Resource Survey and Tribal Consultation

The contract requires the performance of pre-work cultural resource surveys to identify and safeguard potential archaeological and sacred sites in the 96059 area, with mandatory coordination with Tribal monitors to ensure cultural sensitivity and compliance. Any discovery of previously unknown cultural materials must result in the immediate cessation of all field activities to allow for proper assessment and protection protocols. Work must proceed only after consultation and guidance from Tribal representatives, emphasizing respect for indigenous heritage and legal obligations. The scope is governed under NAICS code 541620 and is structured as a subcontract under the Tehama County Resource Conservation District of California, with activities tied to a specific project site requiring vigilant cultural resource management practices.
