All permittees are required to submit a final written report. In all cases the reports shall be submitted to the state agency or agencies and HPD for review and comment as specified in this section. For archaeological investigations conducted on state trust lands, the commissioner of public lands may condition release of the permittee's bond upon the commissioner's approval of the final report
A. Reports on the archaeological
investigations shall be prepared and submitted consistent with the standards
set forth as appropriate in 4.10.15 NMAC, 4.10.16 NMAC, and 4.10.17 NMAC. The
state agency may establish additional reporting requirements and may request
additional copies of the reports, forms, appendices and attachments. Reports
shall be submitted simultaneously to HPD and the state agency when the agency
does not have a staff archaeologist or a historic preservation professional.
(1)
Preliminary reports. If
required by the state agency, the permittee may prepare a preliminary report
and submit one copy to the state agency archaeologist or historic preservation
professional within 60 days of completing the field studies. The state agency
archaeologist or historic preservation professional shall forward a copy of the
preliminary report to HPD. If the state agency does not have an archaeologist
or historic preservation professional on staff, the permittee shall submit one
copy of the preliminary report to the HPD for review and comment. The permittee
shall make a good faith effort to address any comments from the state agency
and HPD and shall revise and resubmit the report to the state agency or HPD, as
appropriate.

Final
reports. The permittee shall prepare and submit at least one copy of the
draft and final report including site forms, appendices and attachments to the
state agency archaeologist or historic preservation professional for review and
acceptance with recommendations of eligibility and effect if applicable. If the
state agency does not have an archaeologist or historic preservation
professional on staff, the permittee shall submit the draft final report,
appendices and attachments simultaneously to HPD and the state agency for
review and acceptance with recommendations of eligibility and effect if
applicable. The permittee shall make a good faith effort to address agency and
HPD comments and shall revise and resubmit the report to the state agency or
HPD, as appropriate.
(3) If HPD has
not received a copy of the final report within 12 months of the permittee
obtaining the NMCRIS investigation number, HPD may contact the permittee to
determine the status of the report and project. HPD may request the permittee
to submit one copy of the final report to HPD, or if the final report cannot be
submitted within this time period, the permittee shall propose a new completion
date for the final report. HPD, in consultation with the state agency, shall
establish a new deadline for submittal. If agreement cannot be reached, the
CPRC will consider the matter.
B. All reports, forms, appendices and
attachments shall be reviewed by HPD for technical accuracy and completeness
and concurrence with eligibility and effect if applicable. Upon concurrence or
acceptance, HPD will direct the permittee to submit the collections, original
records associated with the collections, and a copy of the approved final
report to the repository within a specified time frame, if applicable. The
repository will provide the permittee with a receipt showing that the
collections have been submitted. The permittee shall then scan and upload a
copy of the receipt and the final report in NMCRIS.
(1) If HPD review identifies that the
proposed investigations were not completed according to the standards contained
in 4.10.15 NMAC, 4.10.16 NMAC, or 4.10.17 NMAC, as appropriate, or not
completed consistent with the stipulations contained on the approved permit,
HPD will notify the state agency and permittee of the deficiencies and request
that the permittee amend the report to correct the deficiencies and resubmit
the report to the state agency and HPD.
(3) Failure by the permittee to conduct the
permitted investigation according to standards or stipulations shall be
documented as unacceptable performance pursuant to
