Brockington and Associates, Inc., conducted an archaeological survey for the proposed South Hall Parkway corridor in Hall County, Georgia on May 15, 2000 (GDOT Project STP-0001-00[97]). Background research and field survey were conducted to identify National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) potentially eligible archaeological sites within and near the project corridor. This archaeological investigation was conducted in accordance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (as amended, 1992) and the Georgia Environmental Policy Act (GEPA 1991). Background research conducted at the Georgia Archaeological Site Files (Athens) revealed that there are no previously recorded sites within 0.8 kilometer (0.5 mi) of the South Hall Parkway corridor. Research at the Georgia Historic Preservation Division (HPD) indicates that no resources nominated to, or recommended eligible for the NRHP are within 0.8 kilometer (0.5 mi) of the project corridor. Field survey consisted of shovel testing and pedestrian inspection of the entire project corridor. Portions of the project corridor are disturbed from modern development. The undisturbed areas were identified for shovel testing. No archaeological sites or isolated finds were identified as a result of this survey. Brockington and Associates, Inc., recommends that no further archaeological work is warranted within the direct impact area of this project. Clearance for archaeological resources is recommended.
