For many agencies, planning is the critical step in the management and treatment of cultural resources. New South Associates has worked with a variety of federal, state, and local agencies and institutions to develop preservation plans, which provide for the effective management of cultural resources. We have provided these organizations with clear guidance on the procedures to take when cultural resources are affected by their activities. We see preservation planning as the future of cultural resources management, and we are proud of our work in planning.

 

We have provided historic preservation plans for several Department of Defense installations, an archaeological preservation and management plan for the State of Georgia's Brasstown Valley Resort, the archaeological component of a preservation and development plan for the historic McLeod Plantation for the Historic Charleston Foundation, and an archaeological preservation plan for the City of Kansas City, Missouri.

 

Our approach to planning is built on four key steps: (1) identify the laws and regulations governing the planning process, (2) determine the types of resources present in the area of consideration, (3) determine the types of agency or organization activities which might effect these resources, and (4) develop strategies for avoiding impacts to these resources, while allowing agency activities to proceed. Our clients have found that planning is good business, allowing them to fulfill their legal and regulatory obligations to cultural resources while keeping their projects on schedule and their overall cultural resource management costs low.
