Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The federal laws on historic preservation require CRM (Cultural Resource Management) archaeologists to conduct archaeological surveys and excavations prior to any federal construction projects, including highway construction projects. The other options, such as coal mine operations, development of a shopping center, and preparing farmland for planting, may also require archaeological surveys, but only if they involve federal funding, permits, or approvals.
