Environmental Corporation of America (ECA) has completed an Archaeological Assessment for the undertaking at the subject site. The subject site includes a proposed approximate 100-foot by 100-foot (30m by 30m) lease area and an approximate 8,721-foot long by 30-foot wide (2,658m by 9m) access/utility easement. The proposed telecommunications facility would include a 304- foot tall (overall height) self-supporting lattice type telecommunications structure and associated ground level support equipment. The subject site is located off State Highway 168 (Rural Road Part of 1767 Acre Tract), Homerville, Clinch County, Georgia. This archaeological assessment was conducted in order to ascertain whether the proposed undertaking might directly or indirectly affect cultural resources, if any such resources exist. Through our review of available cultural records and databases, no previously recorded sites or surveys were identified within a 1-mile background research radius. During our fieldwork we uncovered no archaeological cultural artifacts (see Attachment E-1c). Based on our findings, we recommend no further consultation under Section 106 Review of the National Historic Preservation Act for this proposed undertaking. ECA believes that the proposed undertaking would have no effect on any historic or prehistoric archaeological resources that are listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Based on our findings related to archaeological resources, we recommend no further consultation under Section 106 Review of the National Historic Preservation Act for this proposed undertaking.
