No: B-5741 45697.1.1 Federal Permit Required? County: Document Scotland MCDC Funding: � State ❑ Federal � Yes ❑ No Permit Type: NWP3 Project Description: Replace Bridge #30 over Juniper Creek on SR1425 (Blakely Rd) in Scottand County, North Carolina. The archaeological Area of Potential Effects (APE) measures 600ft in length (300ft from each bridge end-point) and subsumes the 60ft wide existing right-of-way. SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions: First, permitting and funding information was reviewed for determining the level of archaeological input required by state and federal laws. Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act will apply because a United States Army Corp of Engineers (USACE) permit acquisition will be necessary. 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 improvement work. Once an APE was defined, a map review and site file search was conducted at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) on Friday, October 23, 2015. No 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 crucial in establishing the location of noteworthy historic occupations related to a perspective construction impact area. A cross-check of these mapped resources concluded that no meaningful historic properties with possible contributing archaeological elements were located inward of the archaeological APE margins. In addition, historic maps of Scotland County and the project area were appraised for evidence of former structure locations, land use patterns, or other confirmation of historic occupation at this locale and archaeological/historical reference materials were inspected as well. Further, the APE was referenced on topographic, geologic and NRCS soil survey maps (PcA, AeC) for the evaluation of environmental, geomorphological, hydrological, and other correlatives that may have resulted in past occupation in the project corridor. Finally, aerial photographs (NCDOT Spatial Data Viewer & other on-line sources) were examined and the Google Street View map application was utilized (when amenable) for gaining a virtual, first-hand perspective of the overall study area and for assessing disturbances, both natural and human induced, which compromise the integrity of archaeological sites/deposits. Brief Explanation of why the available information provides a reliable basis for reasonably predicti�g that [here are no u�eidentified historic properties in the APE: The project APE is absent of NRHP listed historic properties, previously documented archaeological sites, and cemeteries. The proposed improvement work is unlikely to affect areas outside the margins of the largely impacted existing right-of-way. In addition, almost the entire APE is distinguished by very poorly drained soils "No ARCHALOLOGY SURVEY REQU/RED"form for the Amended Minor Transportation Projecls as Qualrfted in lhe 20/5 Programmalic Agreemen(. 1 of 2 Project Tracking No.: 15-10-0017 which hold little potential for the presence of archaeological resources. No further archaeological input or work will be necessary for this state-funded NCDOT project. A finding of "no archaeological survey required" is considered appropriate.
