Salt River Project Cholla-Dinosaur Transmission Line, Tonto National Forest, Pinal County, Arizona, Final Report for Archaeological Survey of Four Proposed Substations and Access Roads (1975)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Paul R. Fish.
At the request of Salt River Project, four potential substation sites for the Cholla-Dinosaur transmission line were intensively surveyed by the Museum of Northern Arizona. The four alternative substation locations are in the Tonto National Forest near Superior, Arizona. Two of the substation localities contained archaeological remains. Reconnaissance level survey of access roads leading to the substations was also undertaken.
Wirth Associates Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station Transmission System, Salt River Project, Maricopa County, Arizona: Final Report for Archaeological Impact Study: Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station Routing Alternate to Westwing Receiving Station (1975)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Richard A. Brook.
Wirth Associates contracted with the Museum of Northern Arizona to conduct an archaeological impact study of a proposed Salt River Project Palo Verde Nuclear Generating Station Routing Alternate to Westwing Receiving Station. This study delineates areas with three levels of potential site occurence for the project area, and investigates potential effects on the cultural resources of the alternative corridors proposed by Salt River Project. A short data gathering phase, prior to field work,...
Archaeological Investigations: Salt River Project Silverking Substation and Microwave Repeater Station Survey, Tonto National Forest, Pinal County, Arizona: Final Report for an Archaeological Survey of the Silverking Substation and an Associated Microwave Repeater Station, Tonto National Forest, Pinal County, Arizona (1978)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Donald E. Weaver, Jr..
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.
Proposed Mead to Phoenix 500kV DC Transmission Line Project: Appendix D: Eastwing Substation and Westwing Substation Expansion: Archaeological Surveys (1983)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Donald R. Keller. Donald E. Weaver, Jr..
Two proposed substation site alternatives along the Agua Fria River were surveyed for archaeological resources by the Museum of Northern Arizona in December 1982. One small previously recorded potsherd concentration and a number of isolated artifacts were located within the Westwing area. An extensive Hohokam site was located within the Eastwing parcel, along with a segment of the historic Marinette Heading Canal. The Westwing substation alternative is strongly recommended in preference to the...
A Cultural Resource Survey of a Proposed Substation for the Salt River Project, Phoenix, Arizona (1993)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Mark Brodbeck.
Northland Research, Inc. was contracted by Salt River Project to perform a Class III cultural resources survey of a proposed substation site as a prelude to providing archaeological clearance for its construction. The project site covered an area of 1.86 acres.
A Cultural Resource Survey for the Proposed Jones Substation, Maricopa County, Arizona (1994)
DOCUMENT Full-Text John T. Marshall.
Northland Research, Inc., under Arizona Antiquities Act Permit 94-10, was contracted by Salt River Project to perform a Class III cultural resource survey and records check for the proposed Jones Substation. The survey was conducted on a 2.75 acre parcel, owned by Salt River Project. The work was conducted on 11 November 1994 and involved .5 person days of work.
Archaeological Monitoring of the Salt River Project Utility Line Expansion from Lassen Substation (1995)
DOCUMENT Full-Text John T. Marshall.
The document presents the results of archaeological monitoring at the Salt River Project (SRP) Lassen Substation in Tempe, Maricopa County, Arizona. The work was conducted by Northland Research, Inc. for SRP and entailed monitoring for their expansion of utility lines along the Western Canal beginning at Lassen Substation. The project area is located within La Ciudad de Los Hornos (Los Hornos), a Hohokam site. Lassen Substation is on land owned by SRP; the Western Canal and right-of-way is owned...
RS 16 Archaeological Survey (1995)
DOCUMENT Full-Text Cameron S. Griffith.
Northland Research, Inc. (Northland), was contracted by Salt River Project (SRP) to perform a Class III cultural resources survey for proposed SRP receiving station site RS # 3, associated transmission line (230 kV and 65 kV) right-of-way corridors, and alternatives. The survey was conducted from 30 October to 3 November 1995. The work involved 11 person days of labor. No significant archaeological resources were encountered.
Archival Review for the Proposed Salt River Project Receiving Station (RS 15) at 56th Street and Pecos Road, Chandler, Arizona (1997)
DOCUMENT Full-Text John T. Marshall.
Northland Research, Inc. (Northland) was contracted by the Salt River Project (SRP) to perform a records search and Class III cultural resources survey of a proposed receiving station (RS15) at 56th Street and Pecos Road in Chandler, Arizona. The search was conducted for a 20-acre, privately owned parcel. The records search revealed that a previous Class III cultural resources survey had been accomplished within the 20-acre parcel, with negative results (i.e., no cultural resources were...
Archaeological Data Recovery at the Rohrig Substation, Queen Creek, Arizona (2006)
DOCUMENT Full-Text T. Kathleen Henderson.
The Southwest Germann site is among the largest of prehistoric Hohokam settlements in the Queen Creek area. The Rohrig Substation property is located at its southwestern edge and overlaps a previously unreported habitation locus. Archaeological testing (Phase 1 data recovery) at the substation documented the presence of adobe-walled rooms, puddling pits, and trash deposits that were probably contained within an adobe-walled compound on the easternmost side of the Rohrig property. Salt River...
