Abstract:

An intensive survey of 400 acres of easement lands was carried out and test excavations at all sites found within the survey area were undertaken to provide data needed to evaluate the eligibility of the sites for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places NRHP. Three previously recorded prehistoric sites were also designated for test excavation. Twelve prehistoric archaeological sites were found within the easement areas designated for survey. Nine of the 15 sites that were tested were evaluated as eligible for NRHP.
