Abstract

Environmental Corporation of America (ECA) has completed an Archaeological Assessment for the federal undertaking at the subject site. The proposed undertaking would include a proposed approximate 60-foot by 30-foot (18-meter by 9-meter) lease area that would include a 270-foot overall height self-supporting lattice telecommunications structure and associated ground-level equipment. The proposed facility would replace an existing self-supporting lattice telecommunications facility located within the project area. The subject site is located at 209 East 4th Street, Woodbine, Camden County, Georgia.

This archaeological assessment was conducted in order to ascertain whether the proposed undertaking, on the project site, might directly or indirectly affect cultural resources, if any such resources exist. During our database research, we found three previously recorded archaeological sites (9CM290, 9CM304, and 9CM305) and two survey reports (3545 and 9261) within our standard 1-mile background research radius. None of the surveys were identified within our project’s APE for direct effects. During the course of the field survey portion of this archaeological assessment, no archaeological cultural resources were encountered.

We conclude that the undertaking would not affect any historic or prehistoric archaeological resources that are listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Therefore, for archaeological cultural resources, we recommend a finding of No Effect for the proposed undertaking at the project site.
