As a result of these efforts, one area of significance was identified along the project corridor on Tybee Island. There are no recorded archaeological sites located within the project's area of potential environmental effect and the majority of the project corridor is covered in a wetland/marsh type environment. The portion of the proposed project located on McQueens Island is part of the Fort Pulaski National Monument currently owned and operated by the National Park Service. Further archaeological investigation along this portion of the project corridor cannot be accomplished without a completed and executed ARPA Permit.
