Public Outreach and Education Program: The Foundation continues to serve as the Passport in Time (PIT) Clearinghouse. The project involves a cooperative agreement between the U.S. forest Service and the Foundation. The Clearinghouse serves as a vehicle for volunteers to learn about and become involved in cultural resource management on our public lands, and to work with archaeologists, paleontologists, and historians from the Forest Service and other federal and state agencies on a range of projects across the country.

The goal of this project is to help DoD improve and streamline compliance processes, thereby saving time and money while conserving cultural resources inder DoD's jurisdiction. The specific goals of this project are to (1) statistically evaluate and improve existing predictive models of archaeological site locations, (2)use the results of these archaeological models to facilitate and streamline historic preservation compliance, and (3)provide centralized Web-based guidance on both of these issues for U.S. military installations. Four installations are participating in this project: Fr.
