Cultural Resource Survey of State and BLM Lands for the Proposed Palo Verde-Pinal West Project, Maricopa and Pinal Counties, Arizona, Draft Report
Author(s): Matthew Hill; Kimberly R. Kennedy; Edgar K. Huber
Year: 2003
Summary
Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) proposes to construct and operate the 56-mile-long Palo Verde-Pinal West 500 kilovolt (kV) transmission line, which will deliver power from the Hassayampa Switchyard south of Wintersberg to the proposed Pinal West Substation in northwestern Pinal County about 24 miles south of Phoenix, in order to provide additional transmission capacity to support future growth in Maricopa, Pinal, and Pima counties.
The SRI survey, conducted between April 15 and 25, 2003 and again on May 7, 2003, examined a total of 1,248 acres. The SRI survey included (1) a discontinuous 22-mile-long (35.5-km-long) corridor along the proposed SRP transmission line right-of-way ranging in width from 200 to 1000-feet-wide (60-300-m-wide), (2) a block survey area immediate north of the transmission line corridor measuring 2,400 by 1,300 feet (731 by 396 m) , and (3) a 0.8-mile-long (1.3-km-long), 200-feet-wide (60-m-wide) alternative transmission line corridor.
Includes both draft report and original copy with reviewer comments.
