ROI014, The Commissary Site Revisited (1984)
Archaeological monitoring of earthmoving at the Commissary site, 12-Hn-2, revealed that the grading was adversely affecting archaeological resources that appear to be eligible for nomination to the State and National Registers of Historic Places. It was determined that further grading should be discontinued and that selective back-filling should be performed in order to preserve the remaining integrity of the site.

ROI017, Archaeological Investigations At The Peru Industrial Park (1984)
An archaeological field reconnaissance for a proposed industrial park north of Peru, Indiana, yielded evidence of five archaeological sites which may meet criteria for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places. At least one of these sites has yielded evidence of occupation substantially (56") below the soil surface. Due to the unique physiographic setting of these sites, their potential for subsurface features, and current evidence of buried cultural deposits in the area, it has...
