Class III Cultural Resources Survey at Three Alternative Locations for the Proposed P-46 Facility, Tonopah Test Range, Nye County, Nevada (1996)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Lonnie C. Pippin.

Based on previous studies in the vicinity of all three alternative locations for the P46 facility, it was anticipated that each area could contain prehistoric and/or historic age remains, but that these remains should not be very large nor complex. Pedestrian surveys at both alternative locations A and B failed to disclose any cultural remains and only one cultural resource, a small rock cairn situated in a shallow bedrock depression (26NY9309), was found at the Alternative C locality.
