Advancements in Best Practices for Mitigation Paleontology
First update in the last 15 years to guide mitigation paleontology in California and elsewhere. This is super important for our practice and gives teeth to the foundational work of Paul Murphey, et. al. 2019, "A Foundation for Best Practices in Mitigation Paleontology". What is still needed is legislative protections and guidelines akin to what archeology has in place. Much more work is needed. https://www.paleosolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Murphey-et-al.-2019-Best-practices-in-mitigation-paleontology.pdf, and https://vertpaleo.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/SVP_Mitigation_Paleontology_Best_Practices_First_edition_October_2025.pdf
