Burial Sites Office Background
Wisconsin's Native American burial mounds, historic cemeteries and other types of human burial sites celebrate our past. They serve as visible signs of diverse communities and individuals who lived and worked in them. The passage of time has taken its toll. Over the years, these sites have been affected by urban and rural development, and the overall decline in cemetery care and maintenance, which have contributed to the problems we see today--destruction and looting of mounds, overgrown plots, broken grave stones, and vandalism.
The Burial Sites Preservation Program (BSPP) was created in 1985 with the passage of the Wisconsin Burial Sites Preservation law (Wisc. § 157.70). The law requires the BSPP to identify/locate and catalog burials, respond to burial disturbances as they occur, regulate the permit process for disturbing burial sites, analyze human remains and work with owners of burial sites and Native American Tribes and Nations in our common mission to preserve and protect these important sites.
The intent of the law is to treat all human burial sites in the State of Wisconsin equally regardless of age, cultural affiliation, racial or ethnic connection. The law prescribes a permit process to disturb burial sites. As well, the law provides penalties for violations of this permit process.
