Summary

The Bureau of Reclamation (Reclamation) directed Archaeological Consulting Service, Ltd. (ACS) to complete a Class III cultural resources survey of 1,420 acres along the lower San Pedro River. Reclamation, in partnership with the Nature Conservancy, plans to acquire this land and designate it a conservation easement as mitigation for the destruction of riparian habitat during construction of the Central Arizona Project fish barriers.

ACS conducted a Class III cultural resources survey of the parcel to provide an inventory and assessment of cultural resources that might be located within the conservation easement. ACS identified 30 archaeological sites, 6 of which had been previously recorded. Nine sites were recommended eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, 12 were recommended not eligible, 9 required additional investigations to evaluate their eligibility.

This is the report of the survey.

The photos taken during the survey can be found at tDAR ID: 394265.
