Summary
Under contract with the United States Bureau of Reclamation, the Office of Cultural Resource Management (OCRM), Department of Anthropology, Arizona State University conducted an archaeological survey of a borrow area along Reach 5 of the Granite Reef Aqueduct. The objectives of this survey were to 1) locate and record any archaeological remains within the project boundaries; 2) characterize and evaluate those remains in order to place them within a regional context; and 3) recommend further investigation of those sites that would be directly or secondarily impacted by proposed disturbance. Fieldwork required a total 7.5 worker days, and was completed from February 10 and 11, 1976.
This report describes the results of the archaeological survey along Reach 5 of the Granite Reef Aqueduct. The survey identified two sites, both of which were small sherd scatters.
