Rules and Approved List

The Code of Maine Rules contain two chapters that regulate professional archaeological work in Maine. Chapter 100 sets forth the standards and procedures for access to archaeological site records. Chapter 812 contains the composition and functions of the Archaeological Advisory Committee, the credentials requirements from persons on the Commission’s approved lists of archaeologists, procedure for review of credentials, procedure for removal from approved lists, and environmental impact project guidelines and procedures. 

The text of both chapters can be downloaded here in rich text format (readable by most word-processing applications) or from the Secretary of State's web site.
