Archaeological Records Review, Expansion of Huntington Airport, Huntington County, Indiana

Summary

In response to a request from James O. Bellis, an archaeological records check has been completed for the proposed expansion of the Huntington Airport located approximately two miles from Huntington, Huntington County, Indiana (Figure 1). The project is located in the north central 1/4 of Section 25, Township 29 North, Range 9 East as shown on the USGS 7.5' Majenica, Indiana Quadrangle (Figure 2). The proposed project involves the construction of a taxiway. Land within the project area is presently woods, weeds, and disturbed land. Approximately 32.1 acres of new permanent right-of-way will be required for this project. The records check utilized site records, maps and materials on file in the ARMS laboratory to locate, identify and evaluate the known and expected cultural resources within the project area. The records search was conducted at a level specific to the project area; where no record of sites were found, the search was broadened to include the county and/or region to evaluate the potential impact of the project upon archaeological resources.
