PROJECT INFORMATION
Project No: County: Chowan
WBS No: 80059 Document: MCC
F.A. No: Funding: ® State ❑ Federal
Federal Permit Required? ❑ Yes ® No Permit Type:
Project Description:The project involves the intersection improvement of NC 32/NC 37/SR 1108(Indian
Trail Rd) in Chowan County,North Carolina. The archaeological Area of Potential Effects(APE)
encompasses all areas of potential ground disturbing activity as depicted on the attached GIS mapping.
SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW
Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions:
Permitting and funding information was reviewed for determining the level of archaeological input required by
state and federal laws. Based on the submitted "request for cultural resources review"form,the project is state-
funded with no federal permit interaction.As such,Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act will not
apply and the project will be subject to state archaeological laws only. Next,construction design and other data
was examined(when applicable)to define the character and extent of potential impacts to the ground surfaces
embracing the project locale.
Once an APE was outlined,a map review and site file search was conducted at the Office of State Archaeology
(OSA)on Friday,September 21,2018. No NRHP eligible archaeological sites or any other previously documented
archaeological sites are located within the APE.
Examination of National Register of Historic Places(NRHP),State Study Listed (SL), Locally Designated (LD),
Determined Eligible(DE),and Surveyed Site(SS) properties employing resources available on the NCSHPO website
is important in establishing the location of noteworthy historic occupations related to a perspective construction
impact area.A cross-check of these mapped resources concluded that none of the above properties with possible
contributing archaeological components are situated within or proximal to the APE.
In addition, historic maps of Chowan County were appraised to identify former structure locations, land use
patterns,cemeteries,or other confirmation of historic occupation in the project vicinity.Archaeological/historical
reference materials were inspected as well. In general,the cultural background review established that no
previously recorded archaeological sites,cemeteries,or NRHP listed archaeological sites are located within the
APE. Based on cultural-historical factors,the APE is considered to have a low potential for the documentation of
archaeological resources.
Further, topographic, geologic, flood boundary, and NRCS soil survey maps were referenced to evaluate
pedeological, geomorphological, hydrological, and other environmental determinants that may have resulted in
past occupation at this location. Aerial and on-ground photographs (NCDOT Spatial Data Viewer) and the Google
Street View map application (when amenable) were also examined/utilized for additional assessment of
disturbances, both natural and human induced,which compromise the integrity of archaeological sites.
Environmental/impact factors do not suggest a heightened potential for archaeological resource recovery.

Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably predicting
that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE:
The majority of the project study area is largely disturbed based on aerial,photographic,and soil data.There are
no existing NRHP eligible archaeological sites within the projects APE,and it is unlikely to contain significant,intact,
and preserved archaeological deposits.As currently proposed as a state-funded project, no further consultation is
advocated.A finding of"no archaeological survey required"is considered appropriate.
