A cultural resources survey of 366 ha (905 ac) on the Chattooga Ranger District of Chattahoochee National Forest was completed in September 1993. The survey was conducted prior to timber sales in portions of Compartments 202 and 205 in Stephens County, and 267 in White County.

The proposed projects would widen and reconstruct SR 72 from its intersection with US 17 in Elbert County, GA easterly to a point approximately 6300 feet across the state line in Abbeville County, SC. The project follows the existing SR 72 corridor, varying in width from 100 to 300 feet.

The proposed project consists of easements associated with intersection improvements at SR 5/Church Street and Tower Road, from just west of Roselane Street to SR 5/Church Street. Additional lanes would be provided as needed on Tower Road and Church Street.
