1-6 (6 Records)
Nellis Air Force Range archaeological sites are compared with Bureau of Land Management sites in southwestern Nevada based on data collected from site records and site visits. Of 105 sample sites, 86 were evaluated based only on site forms. Nineteen sites were visited; four were examined in detail. Data showed a trend towards NAFR sites being less disturbed and in better condition. NAFR has more sites in “excellent” condition than BLM; the proportion of disturbed BLM sites is greater than NAFR...
Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance for the Proposed TPK-38 Facility, Tolicha Peak Electronic Combat Range, Nye County, Nevada (1996)
The U.S. Air Force proposes to construct a 60 x 60 m (200 x 200 ft) facility pad, designated TPK-38, on the Tolicha Peak Electronic Combat Range (TPECR) to house the existing S13 radar unit now located at TPK-6 (Figure 1). The moving of this unit is necessary because of the congestion around the existing TPK-6 facility pad due to the recent construction of TPK-40 (see Drollinger 1995, Pippin 1995b). Two alternative locations have been proposed for the TPK-38 facility pad.
Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance for the TP2-l CE Storage Area, Nellis Air Force Range, Nye County, Nevada (1998)
The U.S. Air Force proposes to construct a 30 x 134 m (100 x 440 ft) pad for the TP2-1 CE materials storage yard on the Tolicha Peak Electronic Combat Range (TPECR) (Figure 1). The Desert Research Institute (DRI) conducted a cultural resources reconnaissance of the proposed project area. The area of potential effect (APE), approximately .5 hectares (1.2 acres), was inspected for cultural resources by parallel, pedestrian transects spaced 30 m (100 ft) apart. No cultural resources were identified...
A Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance for the TPK-49 Bypass Road Improvement, Nellis Air Force Range, Nye County, Nevada (1998)
The Desert Research Institute was tasked to conduct a cultural resources reconnaissance of the proposed project area. The planned undertaking involves widening an existing 4.5 m (15 ft) wide two-track dirt road, the emplacement of two culverts, and the burial of a surface-laid fiber optic line along side the road. The area of potential effect (APE), approximately 4.1 hectares (10.1 acres), was inspected for cultural resources by a pair of linear transects covering a 30 m (100 ft) wide right-of...
A Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance of a Proposed Above Ground 34.5 Kv Powerline and Two Associated Underground 12 Kv Powerlines from NTS Area 20 to the Tolicha Peak Compound on the Nellis Air Force Range, Nye County, Nevada (1994)
All three of these originally-proposed alignments have been surveyed for cultural resources by the Desert Research Institute (DRI). This reconnaissance revealed 57 archaeological sites and 16 isolated artifacts, most of which were found along the 34.5 Kv alignment. Of the sites found, 35 are recommended to be considered eligible to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).
A Cultural Resources Survey For a Proposed Fiber Optic Line Between The Tonopah Test Range and The Tolicha Peak Electronic Combat Range, Nellis Air Force Range, Nye County, Nevada: Phase II - Site 50 to TPK-40 (1996)
The U.S. Air Force proposes to emplace an approximately 96 km (60 mile) long fiber optic line between the Sandia Compound and Cedar Peak Facility on the Tonopah Test Range (ITR) and TPK-40 on the Tolicha Peak Electronic Combat Range.
