In February 2016, Environmental Services, Inc. (ESI) performed an intensive cultural resource assessment survey at the 687.8-acre Tradewinds Tract in Glynn County, Georgia, on behalf of LPC-WEDA Brunswick, LLC. The goal of the work was to locate, identify, delineate, and evaluate all cultural resources within the parcel, including prehistoric and historic archaeological sites, as well as historic structures. The cultural resource assessment survey included a pedestrian inspection combined with systematic shovel testing at 30 and 90-meter intervals. Delineation shovel tests were dug at 15-meter intervals. As a result of the survey, one archaeological site (9GN440) was recorded and four isolated finds were documented. Recovered artifacts indicated that the property was occupied during the Woodland period and the 20th century. No standing historic structures were encountered within or nearby the current study tract. Site 9GN440 is a prehistoric artifact scatter with a Woodland component. Site 9GN440 was determined to be ineligible for NRHP inclusion and no further work is recommended.
