On March 17, 1978, the Museum of Northern Arizona conducted an archaeological survey of two land parcels in Tonto National Forest proposed by The Salt River Project for construction of the Silverking Substation and an associated microwave repeater station. Only one previously recorded site, NA14,132, was observed. Since the site probably post-dates 1948 and contains virtually no significant archaeological data, archaeological clearance for the two land parcels is recommended.

On September 22, 1977 and October 12, 1977, the Museum of Northern Arizona conducted clearance surveys in the Patterson Wellfield adjacent to the main plant site of the Coronado Station. Well sites P-10 and P-3, and an access road between them, were inspected thoroughly. A proposed well site P-9 and an access road from it to well site P-10 were partially covered in reconnaissance. The Museum recommends clearance only for well sites P-10 and P-3 and their access road.
