Archaeological Assessment of a Bibb County Railroad Grade Crossing Improvement Project. The proposed project would improve an existing railroad grade crossing in Bibb County, Georgia by including the installation of train activated warning devices in the form of bells, lights, and gates at the following intersection: CR 130/North Pierce Avenue@ the CSX/Norfolk Southern Railroad in the city of Macon, Georgia. All work will take place within the existing right-of-way; no new right-of-way or easements will be required. Pursuant to the September 2007 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Federal Highway Administration (FHW A), the State Historic Preservation Officer of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (SHPO), and the Georgia Department of Transportation, this project is considered an undertaking as defined in 36 CFR 800.16(y), however, it has been determined there is no potential to affect historic properties included in or considered eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places.
