DETECTING CODE OF ETHICS
34
Filling holes and obeying no trespassing signs
are but two requirements of a dedicated metal detec-
tor hobbyist. A sincere request that Charles Garrett
makes to every user of one of his detectors is that
each place searched be left in a better condition than
it was found. Thousands of individuals and orga-
nizations have adopted this formal Metal Detector
Operators Code of Ethics:
• I will respect private and public property, all
historical and archaeological sites and will do no
metal detecting on these lands without proper permis-
sion.
• I will keep informed on and obey all laws, regula-
tions and rules governing federal, state and local
public lands.
• I will aid law enforcement officials whenever
possible.
• I will cause no willful damage to property of any
kind, including fences, signs and buildings and will
always fill holes I dig.
