Abstract

The proposed project would consist of grading, drainage, base and paving of four city streets in the city of Hoboken. The streets involved are as follows: Chickasaw Road, Coweta Road, Azalea Drive and Dogwood Drive. All are currently unimproved dirt roads in a newly developing residential subdivision. Right-of-way in each case is approximately 60 feet. Construction will take place within existing right-ofway, with no additional right-of-way required. Total project length is 1.047 miles. An archaeological survey consistent with the project description was conducted for the entire length of the project corridor. An archaeological survey (Level II) was conducted in accordance with "GDOT/FHWA Cultural Resource Survey Guidelines" developed by the GDOT Staff Archaeologists in consultation with DNR Historic Preservation Division Staff and concurred in by the Federal Highway Administration and State Historic Preservation Officer. These guidelines provide general survey boundaries and methodological approaches to archaeological surveys based on the type/scope of work of proposed highway projects and are followed during the initial identification of archaeological resources. No existing or eligible National Register or Georgia Register resources were located within the project's area of potential environmental effect. It is concluded, therefore, that the project will have no effect upon archaeological resources on or eligible for inclusion in the NRHP/GRHP provided that the project conforms to that described above.
