3 <br />If ground disturbing activities encounter human skeletal remains during construction, then all activity will cease that may <br />cause further disturbance to those remains. The area of the find will be secured and protected from further disturbance <br />until the State provides notice to proceed. The finding of human skeletal remains will be reported to the county medical <br />examiner/coroner and local law enforcement in the most expeditious manner possible. The remains will not be touched, <br />moved, or further disturbed. The county medical examiner/coroner will assume jurisdiction over the human skeletal <br />remains and make a determination of whether those remains are forensic or non-forensic. If the county medical <br />examiner/coroner determines the remains are non-forensic, then they will report that finding to the Department of <br />Archaeology and Historic Preservation (DAHP) who will then take jurisdiction over the remains. The DAHP will notify any <br />appropriate cemeteries and all affected tribes of the find. The State Physical Anthropologist will make a determination of <br />whether the remains are Indian or Non-Indian and report that finding to any appropriate cemeteries and the affected <br />tribes. The DAHP will then handle all consultation with the affected parties as to the future preservation, excavation, and <br />disposition of the remains (RCWs 68.50.645, 27.44.055, and 68.60.055). <br />INADVERTENT DISCOVERY PLAN TRAINING <br />The District staff participating in initial site visits will take an IDP training from a resource approved by the HSIL subaward <br />manager.
