The Quaternary Sciences Center (QSC) of the Desert Research Institute (DR!) surveyed a road and areas for communication towers in the Jack Rabbit Knob area on the Tonopah Test Range (TIR) for archaeological resources (Figure 1). The access road and linear routes on top of Jack Rabbit Knob are 4.97 mi (8 k) long. Another 400 ft (122 m) square area at the east base of Jack Rabbit Knob was surveyed for a proposed gravel pit. Three small archaeological sites were recorded on the access road to Jack...

This survey was requested to identify any cultural resources that may exist in the proposed placement area. and to evaluate the potential for adverse effects to those cultural resources resulting from the developmental activities. The area had not been previously surveyed for cultural materials. so the area was subject to a cultural resource reconnaissance. For the most part, the proposed communications line follows along existing roadways in undisturbed areas. One site was located during the...
