SB 958 (Russell) • tourism and educational/interpretive pro grams.

This bill would create the California Heritage Data Management Program.

Existing law (Calif omia Public Resources code §S020.4[b]) requires the State Historical Resources Commission to conduct a statewide inventory and maintain comprehensive records of historical resources in California. These data are utilized in a number of applications including:

• feasibility studies; • environmental impact report/statement

preparation; • long-range planning; • scientific inquiry; • tax certification programs; and

4

This measure would create the California Heritage Data Management Program within the State Office of Historic Preservation and direct that office to establish and maintain a computerized data management system to coordinate a comprehensive cultural and historical resources database.

Maintenance and coordination of a single comprehensive cultural and historical resource database by one state agency has several advantages:

• it will reduce duplication of effort among the Federal, state, local and privat

interests with a need for addressing cultural or historical issues;

• it will ensure that all existing information is fully utilized;

• it will reduce the time requirements by approximately 95% for background records and literature searches required for environmental assessments;

• it will be stored in formats appropriate for computer modeling from which general ized "sensitivity" maps specifically geared for long-range planning or project siting could be produced and easily updated;

• in short assist in the identification and protection of the state's significant cultural and historical properties.

The proposed computerized comprehensive data management system. will guarantee that all recorded cultural and historical resources are considered in regulatory processes.

It is estimated that implementation of the data management program will result in cost savings of 10-25% or 2-5 million dollars annually.

Database access will be available to all interested parties provided federal regulations regarding the "confidential" designation for archaeological sites is maintained.

This proposal has the support of the California Heritage Data Management Advisory Committee consisting of representatives from the following organization:

• Southern California Edison Company; • California Department of Transportation;

National Preservation Leader to Address State Conference in Monterey

J. Jackson Walter, President of the National Trust for Historic Preservation, will be the Keynote Speaker at the eleventh annual State Preservation Conference, May 1-4, 1986. Walter, who heads the 160,000 member organization headquartered in Washington, D.C., will focus attention on national changes from budget cuts to deficit fears forcing community preservationists to become more creative and entrepreneurial. The National Trust, a private non-profit organization chartered by Congress in 1949, spearheaded efforts to create a federal

SB 958 is a two-year bill and is currently awaiting action in the assembly after passing the Senate unopposed last year. Recent government cost-cutting measures, including the Gramm­Rudman-Hollings Act have resulted in no administrative dollars being available for this program. $700,000 in seed money over three years is required to develop the data management system after which the system is self supporting. Senator Russell has been requested to amend the bill to provide this funding.

Immediate support is required. Please contact Thomas T Taylor at (818) 302-2147, or Kay Lentz of Senator Russell's Office at (916) 445-5976 for further information. Please send letters of support to:

preservation policy and is in the forefront of the battle to save the significant tax benefits for historic properties.

The State Conference is a yearly production of the California Preservation Foundation and has been cosponsored by the California State Office of Historic Preservation and the Western Regional Office of the National Trust since 1976. This year's program highlights Monterey, California's first capitol. Monterey cosponsors are Monterey History and Art Association and the Colonial Monterey Foundation, with the City of Monterey providing considerable support. Conference planners expect over 400 to attend.

. ' Walter brings his national perspective and his

experience in forming public policy to the con fere~ce; other sessions will cover a wide range of subject matter from adobe conservation to historic resource protection in coastal planning. The heavy impact of tourism on historic communities, like Monterey, will receive special attention, while evening events will feature Monterey's incredible legacy of historic adobes and vintage neighborhoods. Thursday night's opening reception (May 1 ), a candlelight (lumin­aires) tour of downtown adobes, should clearly demonstrate the value gained from concerted community effort to save a precious heritage.

Change in the world of preservation is the underlying theme of the conference. The rules for qualifying buildings for the National Register and for tax benefits are changing. There are changes in the way the State Historic Building Code is applied and in the ways buildings can be made seismically safe; and there are changes in the program offerings of the State Office of Historic Preservation. Conference attendees will leave Monterey with an up-to-date understanding of new rules and new opportunities.

Conference features that continue will be the California Preservation Foundation annual "Design Awards" presentation and the often amusing "Three-Minute Success Stories," when local preservationists try to document a local preservation victory in a brief, three minute time span. Finally, this year's "Preservationists of the Year" will be announced, an honor bestowed on Monterey Assemblyman San Farr in 1985.

The California Preservation Foundation is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to the promotion of historic preservation statewide. The Annual State Preservation Conference is an ~mportant part of the CPFs yearly program that mcludes workshops, publications, and special events. Registration material for the Monterey conference will be available in March; for more information on the conference contact the Foundation's Executive Director, John Merritt (415/527 7808), or local cosponsor, the Monterey History and Art Association ( 408/372-2608).

Ancient Man Information Exchange is a new publication to forward and enhance

the existing literature on ancient man studies. An interdisciplinary approach is utilized to permit all of the sciences to share insights. The presenta tion of concise articles is intended to encourage others to publish their findings and insights in at least a preliminary fashion, rather than not at all.

In the first issue there are many fine articles on "earlymanism." Subjects are as diverse as the individuals who submitted the articles, and range from an article on primitive monotheism by Eugene Kevane to studies of ancient flint working techniques by Virginia flintknapper Scott Silsby and California knapper Ray Harwood.

In the second issue the projectile point types of California are illustrated and described. This is perhaps the most organized and complete typology to date of point types from California.

The Exchange is edited by Stephen E. Porcelli of Woodbridge, Virginia. Subscription is by membership in the Tekakwitha Institute of Ancient Man, at 1812 Warren Drive, Wood - -bridge, Virginia 22191. Membership is $8.00 per year, and includes three issues of the Ancient Man Information Exchange.

Archaeologists Seek Volunteers to Reconstruct Africa's Past

David Williams and Peter Reynolds are rebuilding Iron Age Swaziland right down to the houses people lived in, the crops they grew, and the furnaces in which they smelted ore. It's more than history on display-by making and using replicas of tools archaeologists can compare the wear marks. They need volunteers to help with excavating sites, tending replicate gardens and in terviewing local farmers about current methods. Their work is an outgrowth of Reynolds' Butser Ancient Farm Experiment in England and Wil Iiams' position as head of Swaziland's Anti quities Department The project is sponsored by Earthwatch. For a contribution of $1295, volun teers can spend from April 11-May 2 living history The contribution covers ground trans­portation, meals, and lodging. Expenses are deductible-for information call 617/926-8200. (Earthwatch Bulletin, 1/11186.)
