Summary

On November 9, 11, 12, and 13, 1981 a cultural resource assessment in the vicinity of the City of Lumpkin, Georgia was conducted by Frank T. Schnell, Principal Investigator and R. Donald Gordy, Field Investigator. Five sections of a proposed sanitary sewer system are planned with assistance from FmHA.

Section 3 extends approximately 600 feet (180 meters) from Georgia highway 27 to Patterson Drive, Section 4 extends approximately 3300 feet (1000 meters) from Liberty Street to another proposed pipeline southeast of the Town of Westville, and Section 5 extends approximately 8200 feet (2500 meters) from Georgia highway 27 to the proposed treatment plant site near the confluence of Wimberly Mill Branch with Hodchodkee Creek.
