Metal Detectorist's Code of Ethics 

1.

 

Always check federal, state, county and local laws before searching. It is your 
responsibility to "know the law." 

2.

 

Abide by all laws, ordinances or regulations that may govern your search and the area 
you will be in. 

3.

 

Never trespass. Always obtain permission prior to entering private property, mineral 
claims, or underwater salvage leases. 

4.

 

Do not damage, deface, destroy, or vandalize any property, including ghost towns and 
deserted structures, and never tamper with any equipment at the site. 

5.

 

Never litter. Always pack out what you take in and remove all trash dug in your search. 

6.

 

Fill all holes, regardless how remote the location. Never dig in a way that will damage, be 
damaging to, or kill any vegetation. 

7.

 

Do not build fires, camp at or park in non-designated or restricted areas. 

8.

 

Leave all gates and other accesses to land as found. 

9.

 

Never contaminate wells, creeks, or any other water supplies. 

10.

 

Be courteous, considerate, and thoughtful at all times. 

11.

 

Report the discovery of any items of historic significance to the local historical society or 
proper authorities. 

12.

 

Uphold all finders, search and salvage agreements. 

13.

 

Promote responsible historical research and artifact recovery and the sharing of 
knowledge with others.
