Cultural Resource Survey of the Proposed Location for Maintenance Site 2 within Technical Area III for Sandia National Laboratories, New Mexico

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

Year: 1993

Summary

On August 20, 1992, Advanced Sciences, Inc. conducted a cultural resource survey of two maintenance sites within Technical Area Ill at Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico (SNL/NM). This report discusses the reconnaissance performed at Maintenance Site 2, an area encompassing .20 acre (.08 hectare).

The area remains in a natural state, however, its placement between two existing maintenance facilities and two paved roads has resulted in vehicular, and possibly pedestrian, use of the area.

Sandia National Laboratories/New Mexico (SNL/NM) proposes to expand Maintenance Site 2. This action will be undertaken to facilitate an increased need for additional storage facilities.

No prehistoric or historic cultural resources were located by this inspection. The structures near Maintenance Site 2, Building Nos. 6502 and 6502A, 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 Maintenance Site 2.
