As a result of the Salt River Project consultant's meeting on June 18, 1974, additional, more current information on the Arizona Station Project was made available to the Museum of Northern Arizona. Because of this, it was decided that the archaeological recommendations for the project should be reviewed and re-submitted. This report discusses the new developments and presents the basis for conclusions made regarding the archaeological assessments.
Bechtel Power Corporation 1978 Arizona Station Plant Site Study, Salt River Project, State and Private Lands, Apache and Navajo Counties, Arizona: Final Report for Phase I: Archaeological and Ethnohistorical Research (1974)
The initial Phase I investigation for the Salt River Project 1978 Power Plant Study has been completed. This report presents that data which was collected during library research and actual field reconnaissance and is intended to offer a background on the archaeological and ethno-historical resource base of the two proposed areas being considered for plant site and wellfield location. A discussion of the possible impacts with alternatives to these is also included. The report includes...
The Coronado Project Archaeological Investigations, The Coronado Generating Station Plant Site and Access Road (1980)
The Museum of Northern Arizona conducted archaeological investigations for the Salt River Project near St. Johns, Arizona. The excavation of 18 sites yielded architectural, ceramic, and lithic evidence in support of a general Anasazi cultural pattern. Nine sites showed definite ceramic affiliation with the Cibola Anasazi. The entire data base provides much additional information about the prehistory of east-central Arizona, specifically the Upper Little Colorado River Valley.
The Coronado Project Archaeological Investigations, The Specialists' Volume: Biocultural Analyses (1982)
In the mid-1970s, the Salt River Project, a public utility in Arizona, contracted with the Museum of Northern Arizona (MNA) to provide archaeological clearance for 148 miles of railroad and transmission line right-of-way in northeastern Arizona prior to actual construction. The project area is roughly bounded by St. Johns and Springerville to the south, and Holbrook and Navajo to the north. Those settlements also help define the western and eastern boundaries of the project area. MNA...
The Coronado Project Archaeological Investigations: A Description of Lithic Collections from the Railroad and Transmission Line Corridors (1984)
During 1974-1978, the Museum of Northern Arizona conducted an extensive archaeological mitigation program for the Salt River Project prior to the construction of the Coronado Generating Plant near St. Johns, Arizona, and its energy corridors, the Coronado-Silver King Transmission Line and the Coronado Coal Haul Railroad. Lithic material from those corridors was separated from remaining project data and is reported herein. Objectives of this study are identification and description of all lithic...
The Coronado Project Archaeological Investigations: The Ash Disposal and Evaporation Pond Site (1981)
The Museum of Northern Arizona conducted an archaeological investigation and mitigation program near St. Johns, Arizona, in an area proposed as the site for ash disposal and evaporation pond facilities associated with the Coronado generating station, then under construction. The archaeological survey located 33 sites, including Archaic and Pueblo period camps and residences, stone quarry locations, and several historic period sites. An attempt is made to place all sites within a broad temporal...
Cultural Resources Survey of Approximately 2.0 Miles of Transmission and Pipeline Right-of-Way and a Well Pad within the Salado Preserve near St. Johns, Apache County, Arizona (2014)
Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) requested that Logan Simpson Design Inc. (LSD) conduct a cultural resources survey prior to the installation of a well pad, a water pipeline right-of-way (ROW), and an electrical transmission line ROW within the Salado Preserve south of St. Johns, Apache County, Arizona. The well pad survey area measures 60 m by 60 m (0.92 acre). The two ROWs are perpendicular to each other and partially overlap. A north to south trending ROW...
Prehistory of the St. Johns Area, East-Central Arizona: The TEP St. Johns Project (1981)
The TEP (Tucson Electric Power) St. Johns Project was conducted by the Cultural Resource Management Section of the Arizona State Museum under contract to Tucson Electric Power Company and was designed to mitigate impacts to cultural resources located within a proposed railroad right-of-way corridor east of St. Johns, Arizona. The proposed corridor begins at a point 8 miles northeast of St. Johns and extends 27 miles southward to the proposed TEP SpringerviIle Generating Station north of...
Salt River Project, Coronado Generating Station Project, State and Private Lands, Apache and Navajo Counties, Arizona: Final Report for Phase I and II: Archaeological and Ethnohistorical Research (1974)
Between January 27 and February 15, and February 25 to May 6, 1974, the Museum of Northern Arizona acted as a consultant to Wirth Associates to study a series of alternate transmission line corridors to connect proposed Salt River Project coal-fired power plants at either the Snowflake or St. Johns localities to three substations in the Phoenix area. Then from April 11 to May 3, 1974, the Museum was contracted by Bechtel Power Corporation to complete Phase I survey investigations of the proposed...
Salt River Project, Coronado Generating Station, Ash Disposal Area and Evaporation Pond Site on Private Lands, Apache County, Arizona: Interim Report for Phase II and Phase III Operations in the Ash Disposal and Evaporation Pond Site for the Salt River Project Coronado Station, A 76-6 (1976)
Between February 18, 1976 and April 25, 1976 archaeological field work was conducted on the Coronado Generating Station ash disposal area and evaporation pond site for the Salt River Project, During this time 3.25 square miles were surveyed and 33 sites recorded. In addition to the fieldwork, analytical and write up phases of the project were carried out between May 3 and July 19, 1976. These phases provide a description and analysis of archaeological sites and artifactual materials from the...
Theodore Wirth Associates, Arizona Station Transmission System, Salt River Project, State, Private, Federal, and Indian Lands, Coconino, Navajo, Apache, Maricopa, Pinal, Gila Counties, Arizona and Catron and Valencia Counties, New Mexico: Final Report for Phase II: Archaeological Impact Study, Arizona Station Transmission System Study (1974)
The Museum of Northern Arizona developed a location analysis research design for Phase II archaeological investigations of the proposed transmission line corridor route for the Arizona Station Project. Through coupling this research design with a survey of sample archaeological units in the corridor areas, a projection of archaeological sensitivity was generated. This projection was based on a categorization of the total study areas in terms of environmental sensitivity to each. Variable for...
Wirth Associates, Arizona Station Transmission System, Salt River Project, State, Private, and Federal Lands, Coconino, Navajo, and Apache Counties, Arizona, Valencia and Catron Counties, New Mexico: Preliminary Draft for Phase I: Archaeological and Ethno-historical Research (1974)

Existing archaeological site data were gathered from various Arizona and New Mexico institutions, and archaeological site density per township was mapped. Site density figures were compared with vegetational and...
