N.M. Admin. Code § 4.10.17.8 - MONITORING

There are two types of monitoring activities: monitoring to implement site avoidance or site protection measures, and monitoring of construction activities through an archaeological site, other cultural property or areas of historic and scientific interest where there is high probability of finding subsurface features and cultural deposits. Both types of monitoring shall be conducted under a permit issued by the CPRC, with the concurrence of the state archaeologist and SHPO, authorizing monitoring activities.

A. General permits. Monitoring may be conducted under a general permit when applicants propose to:

(1) supervise implementation of site avoidance or protection measures pursuant to 4.10.17.10 NMAC and authorized pursuant to 4.10.8 NMAC; or

(2) oversee land-disturbing projects when a monitoring plan is prepared in conformance with 4.10.17.11 NMAC and authorized pursuant to 4.10.8 NMAC.

B. Project-specific permits. Monitoring may be conducted under a project-specific permit when a monitoring plan is prepared in conformance with 4.10.17.11 NMAC and authorized pursuant to 4.10.8 NMAC.
