On April 9, 1985, a pedestrian cultural resource inventory was conducted for the proposed construction of a CE Golf Course Facility located in Section 23, Tl4N, R67W. The total area surveyed was approximately 25 acres. The project area has been extensively disturbed by heavy equipment activity and the construction of the existing facilities. The new construction will be within the disturbed area and will not disturb the known historic sites nearby.

On 13 June 1985 during construction of an underground line, the construction contractor encountered a buried foundation. The Base Construction Inspector's office was notified immediately. The base archaeologist inspected the location and monitored the remaining construction in the area of the foundation.

On April 22, 1985, a pedestrian cultural resource survey was conducted for the proposed replacement of the 6th Street Bridge which crosses Crow Creek in Section 26, T14N, R67W. Total area surveyed is approximately 1 acre. The project area has suffered extensive disturbance from previous construction. A light scatter of pre-1920 historic debris was discovered on the north bank of the Creek. The debris does not appear to be significant and the potential for significant deposits appears low. As a...

During the excavation of a backhoe trench for the repair of the electrical distribution system, a buried cultural horizon was encountered. Construction was halted and the Base Archaeologist visited the site to evaluate the material. Further excavation was monitored. The completed trench revealed a lens-shaped deposit approximately 15 meters long with a maximum depth of 0.75 meter and a minimum depth of 0.15 M. Datable artifacts indicated a probable date range of 1890 to 1905. It was determined...

On 8 April 1985, a pedestrian survey was conducted of the proposed location of a picnic pavilion along Lake Pearson in Section 23, T14N, R67W. This area is approximately 12 acres in size. The immediate impact area has been extensively disturbed by grading and landscaping activity. No significant cultural resources were encountered. One of the trails observed during the survey may be a remnant of the Cheyenne-Ft Laramie Road (eligible for the NRHP). The integrity of the location has been...

On 31 May 1985, a small historic trash scatter was exposed in a construction trench associated with the project to repair the electrical distribution system on F.E. Warren AFB. This scatter is located immediately beneath an existing sidewalk near Building 298. The site may be the result of secondary redeposition associated with construction of building 298. Due to the location of the site within the Ft. D.A. Russell Historic District, it should be considered as an eligible component of the...

During the excavation of a backhoe trench for a sewer pipe adjacent to building 320, portions of a concrete foundation and undocumented water pipes and a cistern were discovered along the south and east sides of Building 320. Records research revealed no plans of these structures. Because the remains appear to date to the 1940s or even more recently and are undocumented, they are not significant and no further work is recommended.

The President has directed that the Air Force deploy the Peacekeeper missile system at a location near F.E. Warren Air Force Base (hereafter F.E. Warren AFB), close to Cheyenne, Wyoming. The Peacekeeper system (formerly known as the M-X system) is an advanced, land-based intercontinental ballistic missile. The plan calls for the replacement of 100 existing Minuteman III missiles with 100 Peacekeeper missiles. Existing missile silos will be used, and there will be very little structural...
