51-75 (216 Records)
Since 1978 Kirtland Air Force Base and Sandia Laboratories have contracted for thorough on-ground surveys for the identification and evaluation of prehistoric and historic archaeological sites. A total of 13 surveys were completed for 31,281 acres on the Base and Forest Service Withdrawal Lands between 1978 and 1985. On May 7, 1987, Mariah Associates, Inc. was awarded the first of a three-phase contract designed to provide a comprehensive historic preservation plan for Kirtland Air Force Base....
Botanical Resources: Corn (1985)
The corn dataset was used in association with an intensive botanical study designed to identify different varieties of corn in the assemblage of corn cobs and plant fragments recovered in the course of DAP fieldwork. The variables in this dataset contain information and measurements pertaining to the number or rows of kernels on an ear, its shape and size, and various details about glumes, cupules, and kernels. Variables for the CORN10 dataset have been described by Wilshusen et al. (1999);...
Botanical Resources: Pollen (1985)
The pollen dataset contains basic provenience data for each pollen sample collected. These data are accompanied by taxonomic classification and the grain count per taxon. Detailed locational information can be obtained by linking this dataset with the provenience dataset. Variables for the corn dataset have already been described by Wilshusen et al. (1999). In most cases, their descriptions are suitable for use as metadata and have been repeated almost verbatim here. Selected resources from the...
A Brief Survey of Medicine Wheels (1973)

Ceramics: Temporal-Spatial Dataset (1988)
The Additive Technologies Group (ATG) was responsible for supporting the broad research goals of the DAP through the implementation of mid-level research design governing the collection and analysis of data from “material culture that results from the technological combinations of a variety of raw materials” (Blinman 1986a:57). While these items include worked vegetal material (e.g., basketry and textiles), much of the work performed by the ATG relates to a large ceramic assemblage including...
Chronometric Dating (1985)
The results of chronometric analysis on special specimen samples collected for dating can be found in this dataset. Samples are linked to basic provenience data such as site and field specimen number. The temporal range for each sample will be indicated by variables for earliest and latest dates. These variables give the innermost and outermost dates of wood submitted for dendrochronological dating and their corresponding Tree-Ring Lab symbols indicating how close the date provided is to the...

Five well sites had been identified to assess the overall potential for developing a well field to pump ground water for delivery by pipeline to the Peabody Coal Mine as well as to Hopi and Navajo communities. Each of the well site parcels was approximately 100 acres, for a total project area of approximately...

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 Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance of an Airfield Expansion and Vehicle Maintenance Yard at the Tonopah Test Range, Nye County, Nevada (1984)
The main project area will contain a runway, taxiways, a perimeter fence, numerous roads, and large graded areas surrounding the runway, as well as small accessory installations. It has not yet been determined precisely where the runway will be located within the project area. Extensive direct impacts to site 26Ny4218 are not avoidable in any case.
A Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance of the Proposed Underground Test Area ER-EC-2A Pad, Two Borrow Pits and Access Road on the Nellis Air Force Range EC South, Nye County, Nevada (1998)
The Desert Research Institute (DRI) was requested by the Department of Energy, Nevada Operations Office (DOE/NV) to conduct a cultural resources reconnaissance of the proposed Underground Test Area (UGTA) well ER-EC-2A pad, two borrow pits and an access road on Nellis Air Force Range (NAFR) EC South (Figures 1 through 4). DOE/NV is proposing to drill several wells to characterize the area between western Pahute Mesa and Oasis Valley. The data acquired wIII assist the DOE/NV to understand and...

DOE/NV is proposing to drill several wells to characterize the area between western Pahute Mesa and Oasis Valley. The data acquired will assist DOE/NV to understand and model the hydrogeologic regime underlying Pahute Mesa. Reconnaissance of the Area of Potential Effect (APE) of the ER-EC-7 project revealed one site 26NY10972, a small locality, one isolated feature 1120997RJ02, a rock cairn/cache, along the northern side of the proposed access road (Figures 2 and 3). Site 26NY10972 is not...
A Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance of Three Environmental Reclamation Characterization Wells On the Nevada Test Site and Nellis Air Force Base, Nye County, Nevada (1990)
Five archaeological sites were identified on ER-17-1 including three isolated artifacts and two localities of indeterminate function. Four isolated artifacts were recorded in the area of the ER-AF-3 pad, while four isolates, seven extractive loci, and two sites of indeterminate function were recorded along the access road. No cultural resources were encountered during the survey of ER-12-1. None of the recorded sites were judged to be eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic...
Class III Cultural Resources Survey at Three Alternative Locations for the Proposed P-46 Facility, Tonopah Test Range, Nye County, Nevada (1996)
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.
Class III Cultural Resources Survey for Thirty Proposed Systems Pads on the Nevada Test and Training Range, Nye County, Nevada (2012)
The U. S. Air Force (USAF) proposes to develop and use 30 new electronic system pads on the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR), Nye County, Nevada (Figures 1 and 2, also see project maps in Appendix A and project overview photographs in Appendix B). These pads, which average about 1.5 ha (3.7 acres) in size, wIII be used to temporarily park mobile electronic systems during test and training missions and these systems wIII be moved on and off the pads between missions. No additional utilities...
