Abstract

In compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and amendments thereto, project BRS-2744(1), Crisp County, has been surveyed with respect to archaeological resources, especially those on or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The purpose of the survey was to locate, identify and evaluate the significance of any archaeological resources within the project corridor.

The archaeological survey "as conducted in accordance with "GDO'T Archaeological Survey Guidelines" developed by the GOOT Staff Archaeo­logists and agreed upon by the Federal Highway Administration, State Historic Preservation Officer and State Archaeologist. These guidelines outline general survey boundaries and methodological approaches to archaeological surveys of transportation projects, and are followed during the initial identification of archaeological resources.

No significant archaeological resources were located within the proposed project corridor. It is concluded therefore, that the pro­ject will have no effect upon archaeological resources on or eligible for inclusion in the NRHP.
