Addendum To: Phase 1 Cultural Resources Survey of the Proposed Sunset-Tallokas 46 Kv Aerial Transmission Line Corridor (Phase 2 14,500 Feet) Colquitt, Georgia

This report addendum documents the results of a cultural resource survey conducted between February 14 and 15, 1994 by Garrow & Associates, Inc. for the Phase 2 section (14,500 feet) of the proposed Sunset-Tallokas 46 kV aerial transmission line. The proposed Phase 1 (Britt 1994) and Phase 2 sections of the 46 kV aerial transmission line will upgrade the existing transmission line connecting the Sunset substation to the Tallokas substation in rural Colquitt County, Georgia. The purpose of this cultural resource survey was to identify any cultural resources situated within the study corridor as well as those located within the Area of Potential Effect of the proposed undertaking. The results of the excavation of 27 shovel test pits and a pedestrian walkover inspection were that six isolated finds, one historic site (9CO12), and one historic residential structure were identified and recorded within the 75 foot rights-of-way or the Area of Potential Effect. The six identified isolated finds are by definition ineligible for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and require no additional archaeological investigations. Historic Site 1 (9CO12) exhibits no standing structure nor subsurface architectural remains, and has been severely disturbed by repeated cultivation to the extent that it is has little to offer regarding late nineteenth- to early twentieth-century lifeways in southern Georgia. The setting of Historic Site 2 was previously effected by the construction and implementation of Oglethorpe Power Corporation's Tallokas substation and the Colquitt County ERIC substation, as well as by the aerial transmission lines running to and from them. Furthermore, the structure does not exhibit distinctive architectural components nor any other qualifying features that would allow it to be eligible for inclusion on the NRHP. Therefore, the construction and implementation of the proposed 46 kV aerial transmission line would have no adverse effect to this historic structure's setting as it exists now. In conclusion, no further archaeological investigations are recommended prior to the implementation of the Sunset-Tallokas 46 kV aerial transmission line.
