User Agreement: OAHP Cultural Resource Files <br />All individuals requesting access to cultural resource or paleontological records housed at the Office of Archaeology <br />and Historical Preservation (OAHP) must complete and sign the following form prior to access. These records <br />include but are not limited to forms, documents, maps, and images concerning archaeological, historical, <br />architectural, and paleontological resources. The information provided on this form will help determine the nature <br />and extent of the records that will be provided. <br />Access to all or part of many cultural resource records is restricted. The criterion under which individuals may <br />obtain access to cultural resource information is provided in OAHP's Dissemination oflnformalron: Poiicyand <br />Procedures, 1991 (revised2002). As outlined in that policy, access to archaeological information by non- <br />archaeologists is on a case-by-case basis and generally includes only select information. <br />I request access to the documents, forms, photographs or maps listed on this form. I have read and agreed to the <br />following conditions: <br />1. Some of the information provided is confidential and may not be released to unauthorized individuals or organizations. <br />Confidential information includes, but is not limited to, locational information for all archaeological and paleontological sites <br />and locational information on owner-restricted National Register property listings. If there is any question, please contact <br />the landholding agency or OAHP. <br />2. There are no guarantees as to the information's accuracy or completeness and it may change frequently. <br />3. The information provided concerns cultural and paleontological resources that are under the jurisdiction, ownership, or <br />control of other entities, such as state and federal agencies, private individuals, and tribal governments. These properties <br />may be afforded additional levels of legislative protection related to the restrictions on cultural resource information. The <br />information will be used in compliance with applicable municipal, county, state, tribal or federal laws and regulations. <br />4. Information provided In a digital format is to remain in the sole possession of the undersigned. If digital information is <br />requested for use on a shared system, a signed statement detailing access and security on that system will be provided to <br />OAHP prior to release of the information. OAHP staff will review the statement to determine the nature and extent of <br />information to be provided. <br />5. OAHP documentary and photo collections are available to researchers for personal and scholarly use. Material from these <br />collections may not be published or reproduced, except that photocopies may be obtained under the fair use exception of <br />the US copyright code. <br />6. Access to records does not constitute permission to enter onto or conduct investigations on any of the land for which <br />records are provided. It is the users responsibility to obtain permission from the appropriate municipal, county, state, <br />federal, or tribal officials, or private property owners, before instituting any investigations on, or related to, their lands. <br />Copies of the products of such research should be sent to appropriate officials or landowners, and all permit terms and <br />conditions must be honored. Both the State and the landowner may pursue causes of action against the user in the event <br />the information is misused. <br />7. The absence of information concerning resources in a particular area does not necessarily indicate that none exist. The <br />absence of information concerning resources in a particular location may be due to a lack of survey investigations in that <br />area or incomplete information. <br />8. I understand that obtaining information on previously recorded cultural and paleontological resources does not constitute <br />review under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act or the State Register of Historic Properties Act. <br />? s <br />SOnature of User <br />Date
