Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps' Mission

It is the mission of the Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps to lead our Nations back to cultural and ecological well being. The Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps is specifically designed to engage Indigenous youth and young adults in conservation corps programming. *Ancestral Lands Conservation Corps also serves local tribal communities in the regions we operate outside of our 5 offices. Indigenous applicants are preferred .

Bureau of Land Management Mission:

The Bureau of Land Management's mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of public land of present and future generations. The BLM manages the largest amount of public land in the United States.

The BLM New Mexico State Office (NMSO) provides cultural resources support to eight field offices for the New Mexico, Oklahoma, Texas, and Kansas region. The BLM Mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations.

ALCC New Mexico Bureau of Land Management GIS Archeologists Overview:

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is providing an opportunity for one qualified individual to work in the Cultural Heritage Resources program at the NMSO. The program implements the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), the Archaeological Resources Protection Act (ARPA), the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), and other applicable cultural resource laws. There are two key components to the program: archaeological compliance and proactive management of archaeological resources. The intern will be assisting with records management, organization, and scanning of documents related to these two program components. This includes, but is not limited to, Cultural Resource Use Permits (CRUPs), large NHPA project files, legacy cultural resource documents, etc. These activities are in support of a larger initiative identified in BLM Instruction Memorandum (IM) 2018-079 "Guidance for Implementation of National Cultural Resources Management Data Standard" and the intern will assist in the identification of additional documents that could populate missing fields in this data standard.

BLM Internal Memorandum 2018-079 "Guidance for Implementation of National Cultural Resource Management Data Standard" requires that BLM follow this data standard when managing spatial data related to cultural resource sites and surveys. The intern will be assisting with implementation of the data standard through the digitization (scanning) and identification of records that could help populate this data standard. The environmental benefit that the intern will be providing is that through having up-to-date digital information and organized records, the NMSO archaeologists will be able to better support field office resource management questions and reviews related to cultural resource conservation and protection.

Essential functions and responsibilities:

There will be two products: (1) An organized and scanned set of records that have been Quality Assured (QA)/Qualify Controlled (QC) (2) A report summarizing how the records were organized and their digital locations, including a discussion of labeling conventions.
