Cultural Resource Survey for the Camp Creek WPCP Upgrade

A cultural resource survey (consisting of both an architectural survey and a Phase I archaeological survey) was conducted prior to the construction of a proposed 150 acre wastewater treatment site and an approximately 5,000 foot outfall sewer line located at the existing Camp Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant in southwest Fulton County, Georgia. The architectural and archaeological surveys were conducted in August 1998 by TRC Garrow Associates, Inc. Vehicular and pedestrian coverage of the project's Area of Potential Effects (APE) was undertaken to locate historic architectural resources. The architectural APE was defined as an area in which the proposed project would physically or visually affect any historic resources. The architectural survey identified one resource in the project's APE, an approximately 75-foot long motor vehicle bridge (HS-1). Physical inspection and research could not determine the age of the bridge. However, even if HS-1 is at least 50 years old, it is recommended ineligible for the NRHP due to its unremarkable design and lack of engineering significance. No further architectural work is required. Seven sites (9FU325, 326, 327, 328, 329, 330, and 331) and two isolated finds were discovered during the archaeological survey. Five of the sites date to the prehistoric time period, and two to the historic era. Four of the prehistoric and both historic sites are considered ineligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) under Criterion D, and no further archaeological testing recommended. Site 9FU331 is considered potentially eligible for the NRHP, under Criterion D. Phase 11 testing at this site is recommended before construction begins.
