What the grant funds
The overall goal of this cooperative agreement is to acquire information that will enable BOEM to assist the States of Washington, Oregon, and California; west coast Tribal Nations; and public stakeholders with contributing information to further refine current models for the preservation potential of submerged ancient cultural landscapes along the US Pacific OCS. The specific objectives that will enable BOEM to accomplish this goal during this study are: to develop a pro-active, best practices approach for consulting with the Quinault Indian Nation and other appropriate Washington Tribes in order to inform the identification of submerged landforms, submerged traditional cultural properties, and associated areas of significance that BOEM may need to consider during future offshore renewable energy development; to incorporate indigenous knowledge with remote-sensing and bathymetry data collected from these areas into a model depicting the preservation potential of submerged ancient cultural landforms and associated archaeological resources, as appropriate, offshore Washington and the US Pacific coast in general.
