(Priority 11] <br />2378 PrOllOsed Activities: <br />2379 I) Develop data and monitoring systems to assess impacts, Monitoring data has been <br />2380 collected on cultural resources by the NPS for several years. As a result of the GCDEIS <br />2381 process, monitoring activities were increased and became more standardized. TItis <br />2382 infonnation was synthesized to provide direction for activities in the PA program. Since the <br />2383 cultura1 resource survey in 1991, the NPS and tribal groups have continued to monitor <br />2384 resources several times a year under the stipulations of the PA program. TItis information has <br />2385 been gathered and reported by different groups. The information gathered during PA <br />2386 monitoring activities is currently being compiled for the GCMRC's study area and <br />2387 synthesized to indicate areas where additional data may be needed to evaluate sites having <br />2388 the potential of being impacted by dam operations. TItis synthesis is required under the PA <br /> <br />November S. 1998 <br />Second Draft - Do Not Cite, Photocopy, or DIstribute <br />
