Description
Under the Historical Resources Act, Alberta Arts, Culture and Status of Women regulates development activities that could adversely affect significant historic resources in the province. Indigenous traditional use sites are one of the types of historic resources that the ministry records and protects through its regulatory operations. This information bulletin explains how the ministry works with Indigenous communities to gather information on traditional use sites, and how these sites are integrated into the Listing of Historic Resources in such a way as to protect them during proposed developments while also protecting the confidential nature of the sites.
