Contaminated
Collections
Section 10.10 (e) of the NAGPRA Regulations states that the "museum
official or Federal agency official must inform the recipients of
repatriations of any presently known treatment of the human
remains, funerary objects, sacred objects, or objects of cultural
patrimony with pesticides, preservatives, or other substances
that represent a potential hazard to the objects or to persons handling
the objects."
The
links below will take you to non-NPS websites concerned with contaminants
in museum collections, as well as sites that deal with pesticides
more generally. If you have suggestions for other websites that
would be useful to add here, contact National NAGPRA at NAGPRA_Info@nps.gov.
