The Final Report of the National Reservoir Inundation Study, Vol. 1: Summary examines how dam projects threaten buried artifacts and what conservation teams can do to protect them. It presents practical guidance on choosing mitigation options, balancing preservation with research needs, and coordinating with engineers and hydrologists.
The book frames a clear process for planning and executing mitigation around reservoir dynamics. It covers how to design research plans, select sites for sampling, and preserve or relocate archeological resources in the face of inundation. Readers will also see how environmental factors, such as sediment chemistry and phosphorus behavior, can affect prehistoric contexts and interpretation.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a broad and concise study of the impact that constructing and flooding reservoirs has on archaeological sites. The study's conclusions challenge traditional approaches to mitigating impacts to archaeological resources that have detrimental consequences. By combining both underwater archaeology and laboratory experiments, the author demonstrates that while all archaeological values are indeed impacted, they're differentially impacted. The book posits that site protection and preservation are, in fact, viable alternatives to excavation and may often be more cost effective. The author contends that standard salvage approaches can be improved, and that archaeological preservation should be integrated early into the construction process. This book will be of great value to archaeology professionals, reservoir planners, and resource managers who wish to understand better the impacts of reservoir construction on archaeological resources to develop better strategies for mitigating adverse effects.
