Prehistoric site NA13,886 is an extensive archaeological resource exhibiting profuse quantities of artifacts which appear to represent a very wide range of human activities. The proposed Salt River Project Coronado to Dinosaur 500 kV transmission line right-of-way is currently oriented so as to bisect this site. A recent SRP-sponsored field evaluation of this site was undertaken by the Museum in order to establish the site's qualities and thus its significance and determine costs for various...

The Bureau of Reclamation has developed an archaeological site database for the Central Arizona Project (CAP) canal main stem based on the Class III survey data that includes all previously recorded sites. An unknown number of these sites were either destroyed by construction or excavation, while others are no longer located within the CAP right-of-way (ROW). To assist Reclamation in checking the accuracy of its site database, Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS) was asked to revisit a...
