PROJECT INFORMATION
Project No: BPR-R013 County: Richmond
WBS No: BP8-R013.1 Document: Federal CE
Federal Aid No: Funding: ® State ❑ Federal
Federal Permit Required? ® Yes ❑ No Permit Type: NWP 3/NWP 14
Project Description: The project involves the replacement of Bridge 140 over Solomon's Creek
on SR 1971 in Richmond County,North Carolina. The archaeological APE measures
approximately 1,000ft in length(500ft from each bridge end-point)by 100ft in width(50ft from
each side of the SR 1971 center-line). An off-site detour will be utilized during construction
activities.
SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW
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 federal permit interaction. As such, Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act will apply and the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) will
serve as the lead federal agency. 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. The archaeological APE encompasses all areas of potential ground disturbing
activity.
Once an APE was outlined, a map review and site file search was conducted utilizing on-line
resources provided to the NCDOT by the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) on Tuesday, June 22,
2021.No NRHP eligible archaeological sites or any other archaeological resources are located within
the APE or directly adjacent. Numerous archaeological sites are recorded on this section of the
topographic map maintained by OSA. This information does suggest a moderate potential of
documenting a site in 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 potential contributing archaeological
components are situated within the APE. In addition, historic maps of Richmond 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 properties with potential archaeological components are
located within the APE. Based on cultural-historical factors, the APE is considered to have a low to
moderate 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.
(This project falls within a North Carolina County in which the following federally recognized
tribes have expressed an interest: Catawba Nation. We recommend that you ensure that this
documentation is forwarded to these tribes using the process described in the current NCDOT
Tribal Protocol and PA Procedures Manual.)
Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably
predicting that there are no unidentified historic properties in the APE:
There are no existing NRHP eligible archaeological sites within the projects APE, and it is
unlikely to contain significant, intact, and preserved archaeological deposits. The majority of the
APE land surfaces are quite sloped which would have likely discouraged settlement here. As
currently proposed as a state funded project, no further consultation is advocated. A finding of
"no archaeological survey required"is considered appropriate.
