On July 15, 1975, the Museum of Northern Arizona, at the request of the Salt River Project, surveyed a drill site location 4.5 mi. north of Concho, Arizona. Associated with this drill site were two observation sites and an access road. An archaeological site was recorded on one of the proposed observation sites, and it is recommended that this observation site be moved to avoid the archaeological remains. The remainder of the flagged areas are recommended for archaeological clearance.

Detrital charcoal samples from stream terrace deposits along the Little Colorado River, Arizona, were floated to recover organic fragments suitable for radiocarbon analysis. These samples were collected from natural exposures or soil pits as part of the Little Colorado River Sediment Transport Study. Botanic components and detrital charcoal were identified, and potentially datable material was separated.
