ProjectDescription: NCDOT Division 7 intends to replace Bridge No. 132 on SR 1500, Allison Road,
over South Hyco Creek. The replacement bridge is assumed to be proposed at generally the same location
and alignment. For the purposes of the archaeological review the proposed project area is 633.6 feet long
(slighdy more than 193.12 meters) and extends right-of-way (RO� width from 60 feet to 100 feet (30.48
meters). Thus, the area of potential effects (APE) is estimated at roughly 1.45 acres (nearly .59 hectares). A
US Army Corps of Engineers permit is anticipated but the exact type was unknown at the time of the
archaeological investigations.
SUMMARY OF ARCHAEOLOGICAL FINDINGS
The North Carolina Department ofTransportatlon (NCDOT) Archaeology Group revrewed the
subjectprojectand determined.•
� There are no National Register listed ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES within the project's area
of potential effects.
� No subsurface archaeological investigations are required for this project.
❑ Subsurface investigations did not reveal the presence of any axchaeological resources.
❑ Subsurface investigations did not reveal the presence of any archaeological resources considered
eligible for the National Register.
❑ All identified archaeological sites located within the APE have been considered and all compliance
for archaeological resources with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and GS 121-
12(a) has been completed for this project.
� There are no National Register Eligible or Listed ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITES present or
affected by this project. (Attach any notes or document.r a.c needec�

Brlefdescrlption ofreviewactivYties, results ofreview, and conclusions:
As noted on the Survey Required Form dated August 13, 2013, the current project APE contained no
previously recorded archaeological resources. Additionally, the Hyco Creek drainage basin in Orange County
was not considered to have a high potential for significant archaeological resources according to
archaeologists with the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Research Laboratories of Archaeology.
To be fair, however, this assessment was not confirmed by archaeological investigation. Despite the
significant slope suggested by maps of the area (USGS topographic and county soil maps), an archaeological
reconnaissance was recommended to assess the necessiry for further archaeological invesrigation.
The archaeological reconnaissance of the APE was undertaken on October 17, 2013 by NCDOT
archaeologists Shane Petersen and Brian Overton. A walkover investigation of the entire APE was
completed for the proposed bridge replacement project. As expected the majority of the APE was
significantly sloped and considered unlikely to contain intact significant archaeological deposits. Additionally,
areas east of Bridge No. 132 and south of SR 1500 were considerably disturbed by landscape alterations for
an adjacent residential property and for an access road. No subsurface investigarions were considered to be
necessary within the current APE.
No further archaeological investigations are recommended for the replacement of Bridge No. 132 as
proposed. Should the project change further investigation may be necessary. The project as described should
be considered to be compliant with Secrion 106 and NCGS121-12a.
