Abstract

Environmental Corporation of America's client, AT&T Mobility, LLC is proposing to construct a 199-foot tall (overall height) monopole telecommunications structure located at 1320 Blairs Bridge Road, Lithia Springs, Douglas County, Georgia. ECA conducted a Phase l Archaeological Assessment of the Area of Potential Effects (APE) consisting of background research, field investigations, and preparation of this report.

ECA reviewed cultural records and databases and did not identify any archaeological sites or surveys within or near the APE for direct effects. [f any archaeological sites or cultural resource surveys were identified during ECA's research outside the APE for direct effects, they are discussed further in the Site File Research section of this report. During the course of the field survey portion of this archaeological assessment, no archaeological sites were identified. However, one prehistoric chert flake was recovered from the surface near STP4. Since no other prehistoric artifacts were identified on the surface or within any shovel test pits, this one flake is considered an isolated find.

ECA believes that the proposed undertaking would have no effect on any archaeological resources that are listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Based on our findings related to archaeological resources, we recommend no further consultation under Section 106 Review of the National Historic Preservation Act for this proposed undertaking.
