PROJECT INFORMATION Project No: WBS No. Federal Aid No: County.� 17BP.11.R.126 Document: Federal Permit Required? Funding: � Yes ❑ No Ashe Minimum Criteria Checklist � State ❑ Federal Permit Type: NWP 3 Project Description: Replace Bridge 62 on SR 1334 (Joe Hampton Rd.) over Little Horse Creek in Ashe County. The Area of Potential Effects (A.P.E.) is approximately 183 meters (600 ft.) long and 18 meters (60 ft.) wide. No easements required. No design plans provided. SUMMARY OF CULTURAL RESOURCES REVIEW Brief description of review activities, results of review, and conclusions: The review included an examination of a topographic map, an aerial photograph, and listings of previously recorded sites, previous archaeological surveys, and previous environmental reviews at the Office of State Archaeology (O.S.A.). The bridge is oriented approximately north-south. The topographic map (Park, N.C.) shows the A.P.E. is located in a narrow stream valley with steep ridges on each side. SR 1334 intersects with SR 1324 a short distance to the north of the bridge. The South Fork of Little Horse Creek joins Little Horse Creek a short distance east of the bridge, adjacent to the A.P.E. in the southeast quadrant. The southeast quadrant is a narrow strip of land between the road and the South Fork. The southwest quadrant is a narrow strip of land between the road and a steep slope up to the west. There is a house next to the bridge in the southwest quadrant. The northwest quadrant is a narrow strip of land between the creek and SR 1324, and then a steep slope uphill to the north on the north side of SR 1324. The northeast quadrant is a narrow strip of land between the creek and SR 1324, and then a steep slope uphill to the north on the north side of SR 1324. There is a structure next to the bridge in the northeast quadrant. The landforms in the A.P.E., narrow creek sides and steep ridges, have a low potential for archaeological sites. The aerial photograph shows the landuse in the A.P.E. is a mix of wooded and cleared. The A.P.E. in the southwest quadrant is a residential yard. The A.P.E. in the northwest quadrant is cleared between the creek and SR 1324, and wooded on the north side of SR 1324. The A.P.E. in the northeast quadrant is wooded between the creek and SR 1324, and lightly wooded on the north side of SR 1324. The A.P.E. in the southeast quadrant is wooded. A review of information at the O.S.A. shows there are no previously recorded archaeological sites in the vicinity. The A.P.E. is not within any areas that have been previously surveyed for archaeological sites. The A.P.E. is not within any projects that have been reviewed by the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (HPO).

The landforms in the A.P.E. have a low to moderate potential for archaeological sites.
