Author(s): T.L. Knight; G.E. Esqueda

Year: 1993

Summary

On August 12, 1992, Advanced Sciences, Inc. conducted a cultural resource survey of four maintenance sites in Area I at Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico (SNL/NM). This report discusses the reconnaissance performed at Site D, an area encompassing 4.32 acres (1.72 hectares).

Site D was the location of the asbestos management team. The west half of the area has been bladed, graveled, and fenced and contains several temporary structures. The east half of Site D is in its natural state with the exception of a bladed area in the extreme southeast corner that contains permanent building no. 898. The entire area has undergone extensive construction and maintenance disturbance.

Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico (SNL/NM) proposes to relocate Site A, which is currently located in Area I. The area contains Building No. 898 as well as several temporary structures. This action will be undertaken to facilitate an increased need for additional facilities.

No prehistoric or historic cultural resources were located by this inspection. The buildings within Site D are less then 50 years of age. It is felt that no significant cultural artifacts, features, or structures qualifying under the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion D are present within the inspection area. It is recommended that cultural resource clearance be granted for Site D.
