Explanation

(This amendment provides $42,269 GF each year to increase support for the Cultural Heritage Monitoring Lab at the Virginia Museum of Natural History to increase base salaries for staff to increase recruitment and retention of highly technical staff. The Cultural Heritage Monitoring Lab relies on high-resolution satellite imagery accessed through partnerships to identify destructive events and active threats to monuments, museums, archives, historical buildings, archaeological sites, and landscapes.)
