Phase I Archaeological Survey Majestic Airport Center IV Project Pandora Falcon Tract Approximate Limits of Grading Union City, Fulton County, Georgia

Greenhouse CONSULTANTS incorporated completed a Phase I archaeological survey supplement of the Approximate Limits of Falcon Grading for the approximately 3.1 acre tract at the Majestic Airport Center IV in Union City, Fulton County, Georgia. The purpose of this investigation was to identify all archaeological sites within the project area and to evaluate them against the criteria for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in accordance with the provisions of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.

The project area is a 3.1 acre tract contiguous with the previously surveyed 107 acre northern portion of the development known as the Pandora Tract (Figure 1). The overall project involves construction of two approximately one-million square-foot distribution facilities, with attendant infrastructure, on an approximately 354 acre project site (Thames 2016). This work was completed for Contour Environmental, LLC. The applicant had already constructed the facility in the southern portion of the property (Figures 2 and 3) and is currently developing the northern approximately 107 acre portion known as the Pandora Tract (Figure 1). In accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 as amended, the United States Army Corps of Engineers is reviewing the entire 354 acre project tract. Greenhouse Consultants Inc. completed an intensive Phase I archaeological survey of the 107 acre northern tract in June 2015. Upon review of the report Corps of Engineers requested additional survey of the limits of grading of a 3.1 acre portion of southern tract that had not been disturbed by the previous development.

The remaining undisturbed area was specified as " ... the southern, intact portion of the floodplain of Big Branch, from the sanitary sewer tie-in and extending along the boundary between the two project tracts, (White 2016) and outlined on an aerial image provided by Contour Environmental to Greenhouse Consultants. Fieldwork was completed on February 3, 2016 under the direction of George Price, Principal Investigator. No archeological sites, artifacts, or cultural resources of any kind were found as a result of this investigation. Thus, we recommend no further investigations for this 3.1 acre tract.
