He manages one of the largest Federal cultural resource programs in Oregon, which includes over 5,000 documented archaeological and cultural sites. Hann has been a proponent of public archaeology during his career and has worked with volunteers from the Forest Service’s Passport In Time (PIT) program since 1994. His research interests include American Indian rock art, lithic technology and, for the last five years, Chinese gold mining and associated sites.
