On 22 October 2001 , Brockington and Associates, Inc. conducted Phase I archaeological survey of the approximately 3 acre Brookman Substation in Glynn County, Georgia. The survey was conducted for Georgia Transmission Corporation to determine the effects of the proposed Brookman Substation on archaeological resources and in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) 1996, as amended. Background research was conducted at the Georgia Archaeological Site Files (University of Georgia, Athens) to determine if any previously recorded archaeological sites were present in the project's Area of Potential Effect (APE). No previously recorded sites were identified. Phase I archaeological survey consisted of excavation of screened shovel tests at 30 meter (100ft) intervals across the entire project area. The APE is mainly in wetland areas consisting of dark grey or black sandy loam overlying white sand. Vegetation consists mainly of mixed pines and hardwoods, palmettos, and briers. No archaeological sites were identified. No further cultural resources investigations are recommended for this area.
