This archaeological summary documents the results of an archaeological survey performed for the EBI Consulting Site# 61087429 (Gum Springs). The proposed tower location is at the top of a moderately sloped hill in a grassy cow pasture approximately 0.25 kilometers (0.16 miles) west of the intersection of Georgia Highway 140 and Dog Lane in Adairsville, Bartow County, Georgia. This archaeological survey was conducted to ensure that potentially significant archaeological resources are not located within the area to be impacted by the proposed tower.
