On 8 January, 2021, ERM archaeologist Price Laird conducted a site visit at the southeast corner of the intersection of Zebulon Street and Holiday Lane in Barnesville, Lamar County, Georgia for a proposed communications project. The site visit was conducted under the direction of ERM archaeologist/architectural historian Emily Laird. The project consists of proposed satellite access node (SAN) facility with an overall height not to exceed 20-feet and a total footprint of 1,648 square feet, including the compound and access easements. The project footprint is considered the direct Area of Potential Effects (APE). The visual APE is considered to be a 500-foot buffer from the proposed project location, based on the overall structure height not to exceed 20-ft.
The proposed project is situated on a vacant lot in Barnesville, Georgia. The surrounding viewshed, including the visual APE, consists of residential areas and U.S. Route 41. Maps depicting the project location conditions are presented within Appendix A and Appendix C of this report respectively. No archaeological or historic resources were identified within the area of potential effects (APE) for direct effects.
No archaeological or historic properties were identified within the visual APE. ERM recommends that the project will have no effect on any archaeological or historic properties in the direct and visual APEs.
