Integrated Planning: "The process of analytical policy development has a prodigious appetite for information. It is in the provision of better information than might otherwise be available that technology assessment can have a useful role -- in the formation of public policies as distinct from their execution." (Menkes, 1985) The primary goal of cultural resource management is to maintain the capacity of the cultural environment to meet and sustain human needs and aspirations. This goal is best achieved when CRM is integrated as part of the whole planning process, and yet differentiated according to the special circumstances and needs of individual historic resources (Loeks, 1985). Efforts to manage individual cultural resources (artifacts, events, materials, buildings, sites) are must acknowledge and respond to the context of the larger environment (urban, rural, regional planning zone) which encompass all of the relevant factors that affect the individual resource.
