Current verified decision

What the current evidence actually allows

Decision resolved
Detector useNo affirmative permission stored — exact manager/site confirmation required
Ground disturbanceDo not disturb ground until the exact manager/site rule and recovery authority are confirmed
Recovery feasibilityNot trip-ready; detector use and/or recovery must be resolved with the exact manager/site before proceeding
Permission inferenceNo permission or blanket prohibition inferred from public access, ownership, directory inclusion or regulatory silence
Legal precisionAuthoritative scope reviewed; exact recreational detector/recovery permission remains manager/site-specific
Permission ceilingNone until the exact manager/site confirms the intended detector use, recovery method and footprint
Trip block / prerequisiteCurrent evidence requires manager/site confirmation before a detecting trip
Planning stateObtain Manager Site Confirmation Before Travel
Jurisdiction scopeManager Or Site Confirmation Required
Proof required before tripYes
Water jurisdictionNot separately verified
Historic / recoveryProtected-resource restrictions apply
Scope guardrail: A confirmation-required page is a completed actionable decision, not evidence that detecting is allowed. Never convert silence into permission.
Jurisdiction scope note: Current authoritative sources establish the ownership/rule context but do not support a blanket permission or prohibition for the exact intended detector/recovery activity. Confirm the exact manager/site rule before travel.
Scope gate: Confirm the exact manager/operator and the exact property/zone before treating any general rule or public access as detector/recovery permission.
Authorization pathway: Obtain current site-specific written clarification that addresses detector operation and recovery/ground disturbance separately.
Proof before travel: Carry current manager/site confirmation covering the exact property, intended activity and recovery method. Public access, recreation listings, event permits and silence are not proof.
Next action: Do not infer permission. Confirm the exact manager/site and obtain current written clarification for detector use and recovery before travel.

Sensitive-site protection: navigation deliberately uses a broader managing-agency/locality reference rather than publishing an archaeological, artifact, historic-resource, or detecting-target locator.
