PRESERVATION
In fulfilling its mission, the Petra National Trust in co-ordination with the Ministry of Tourism & Antiquities (MoTA), the Petra Archeological Park (PAP) and The Petra Regional Authority (PRA), conducts preservation projects that aim to take the measures necessary to keep the site in its existing state. Preservation measures include regular inspection and cynical and routine maintenance. Preservation implies that repairs must be carried out as required to ensure resource integrity. In practice, this means that damage and deterioration (such as that caused by water, chemicals, insects, rodents or other pests, plants and microorganisms) must be arrested and reserved when discovered.
