    PROJECT USDI Bureau of Reclamation, Phoenix Area Office.

    At the request of the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA), the Bureau of Reclamation–Phoenix Area Office (Reclamation) designed and constructed a new dam downstream of the existing Captain Tom Dam located near Newcomb, on the Navajo Nation, San Juan County, New Mexico. Data recovery was conducted by Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd., at three sites to mitigate the impacts of this undertaking, and to recover and protect a Navajo burial.
