An intensive cultural resources survey was carried out for the Oglethorpe Power Corporation's proposed Eastman Chip Mill Substation and Transmission Line in Dodge County, Georgia. The total area surveyed included a 1675 meter (5528 ft) linear transmission line, with an easement width of 22.5 meters (75 ft) and a 24 x 30 meter (80 x 100 ft). The total coverage for the survey is estimated at 3.84 hectares (9.60 ac). No previously identified historic or prehistoric cultural resources were located within the project area boundaries through background research with the Georgia State Historic Preservation Department nor with a summary of the State Site Files at the Department of Anthropology, University of Georgia. Likewise no historic structures nor prehistoric resources were encountered during the survey. The project was carried out in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act by personnel qualified under 36 CFR part 61.
