Notes

General Note: "No archaeological sites, historic structures, or cultural features were encountered during the Horse Creek interceptor cultural resources survey. Thus, no sites eligible for the National Register of Historic Places were recorded. Based on negative evidence of significant cultural resource potential, it is therefore recommended that the project corridor assessed by this study receive archaeological clearance."
