Legislation, Agreements, Policies, Guidelines
and Bulletins
British Columbia’s archaeological sites are
protected under the
Heritage Conservation Act
(HCA). In order to further encourage and facilitate
the protection and conservation of the province’s
archaeological sites, the Archaeology Branch has
entered into protocol agreements with other
provincial government agencies as well as First
Nations. These agreements define the roles and
responsibilities of the parties in relation to the
protection and conservation objectives. Furthermore,
the branch has implemented various policies and
guidelines in an effort to further these objectives.
