Environmental Corporation of America (ECA) has completed an Archaeological Assessment for the federal undertaking at the subject site. The subject site includes a 40-foot equilateral triangular compound and an approximate 20-foot by 80-foot access road running west off a parking lot to the subject site. Clearing and grading would be necessary for construction of the compound and the access route. The facility would include a 400-foot lattice telecommunications structure (421-feet with appurtenances) and ground level support equipment. The facility is located at 450 Morgan Falls Road near Atlanta, Fulton 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, in any such resources exist. Ten previously recorded archaeological sites were identified through our review of available cultural records and databases included two reports. No archaeological cultural resources were encountered during the course of the field survey portion of this archaeological assessment.
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. Therefore, for archaeological cultural resources, we have recommended a finding of No Effect for the proposed undertaking at the project site.
