Environmental Corporation of America (ECA) has completed an Archaeological Assessment for the federal undertaking at the subject site. The proposed undertaking would include a proposed approximate 5,270 square-foot (490 square-meter) irregularly shaped lease area that would include a 199-foot overall height monopole telecommunications structure and associated ground level equipment. The subject site is located at 609 Highway 96, Warner Robins, Houston County, Georgia. This archaeological assessment was conducted in order to ascertain whether the proposed undertaking, on the project site, might directly or indirectly affect cultural resources, if any such resources exist. Through our review of available cultural records and databases, we found two previously recorded archaeological sites (9HT164 and 9HT165) and three survey reports (3827, 4994, and 7529) within the 1-mile background research radius. Portions of the proposed access and utility easements appear to be located within the boundaries of surveys 3827 and 4994. During the course of the field survey portion of this archaeological assessment, no archaeological cultural resources were encountered. We conclude that the undertaking would not affect any historic or prehistoric archaeological resources that are listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Therefore, for archaeological cultural resources, we recommend a finding of No Effect for the proposed undertaking at the project site.
