The 243-mile preferred alignment of the proposed Mead to Phoenix ±500kV direct current transmission system was surveyed for archaeological resources by the Museum of Northern Arizona in the spring of 1984. Fifty-eight archaeological sites were identified on the alignment, plus 10 historic routes in areas crossed by the alignment. Seventeen of the sites are historic, dating from the 1860s to World War II. Forty-one prehistoric sites range in age from the late Archaic through the Ceramic period to...

The Western Area Power Administration (Western), Salt River Project (SRP), Southern California Public Power Authority (SCPPA), and M-S-R Public Power Agency (Modesto- Santa Clara-Redding) (collectively referred to as the project sponsors) propose to construct a 500 kilovolt (kV) alternating current (AC) transmission line with the capability to be upgraded later to 500kV direct current (DC). This transmission line will connect the Westwing ...

On June 14-16, 1991 Archaeological research of Southern Nevada (ARSN) conducted a cultural resource inventory on BLM lands in the Eldorado Valley, Clark County, Nevada (Map 1) . The purpose of the survey was to inventory a right-of-way for Mead-Phoenix 500 kV corridor proposed by Salt River Project of Phoenix, Arizona. The line is on the west side of already existing power lines that dissect the Eldorado Valley. The project area is approximately 14 miles long and is contained within a 200 foot...

The purpose of this study was to verify and correct the information in Reclamation’s Resource Information System (RIS, previously called LAPS) data base on Reclamation-owned buildings in the Lower Colorado Region that are more than forty years old. An additional aim of the study was to identify through research and fieldwork other forty-plus year old buildings that are Reclamation-owned that have never been entered in the data base. The survey covered buildings only; structures are listed...

Salt River Project has constructed a 500kV transmission line from Boulder City, Nevada, to near Phoenix, Arizona; Site 26CK3216 was first recorded by the Museum of Northern Arizona (MNA) during archaeological survey of the Mead to Phoenix right-of-way (Keller 1986). The site was originally recommended for data recovery but was determined ineligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and construction proceeded without additional investigation. Biologists monitoring the Mead to...

SWCA, Inc., Environmental Consultants (SWCA), conducted a comprehensive Class III archaeological survey of expanded right-of-way at eight point-of-turn towers as part of ongoing cultural resources compliance for the Mead to Phoenix 500kV Transmission line project (Figure 1). These activities constituted only one phase of cultural resource compliance for this project undertaken by SWCA for Salt River Project (SRP). Other phases relevant to this project include relocation and re-evaluation (Anduze...

Salt River Project is constructing a 500kV transmission line along a 250-mile right-of-way from the Marketplace Substation to the Mead Substation, both near Boulder City, Nevada, to the Westwing Substation northwest of Phoenix, Arizona, near Sun City. The right-of-way is adjacent to and parallels the existing Mead to Liberty 345kV Transmission Line for most of the project area. A 200-foot right-of-way was previously surveyed by the Museum of Northern Arizona (Keller 1986). The present project...

Salt River Project constructed a 500kV transmission line from Boulder City, Nevada, to near Phoenix, Arizona, during which SWCA, Inc., Environmental Consultants, monitored construction at 20 previously recorded archaeological sites. Monitoring took the form of damage assessments at six sites and one non-site location, active monitoring of construction at 15 sites, inspections of site conditions and reflagging at two sites, and examination of possible human remains and monitoring at one location...
