Phase 1 Cultural Resource Survey, Global Positioning System Project Summary Report, Fort Dix Tactical Training Areas 11 and 12, Fort Dix, New Jersey
Author(s): AMEC Earth & Environmental, Inc.
Year: 2003
Summary
The Department of the Army (DA) has contracted with AMEC Earth & Environmental, Inc. (AMEC) to conduct a Phase I Cultural Resource Survey within the Tactical Training (TAC) Areas 11 and 12 at the Fort Dix Military Installation in Ocean County, New Jersey.
This current study is part of a long-term archaeological investigation to identify cultural resources that may be potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The long-term cultural resource investigation is concentrated in selected zones of moderate to high training intensity across the installation; results from this investigation will serve as a planning tool toward future training activity at Fort Dix.
Archaeologists from Kise Straw & Kolodner (KSK) were subcontracted by AMEC to conduct the field investigation to determine the presence or absence of cultural resources within the project area. As part of the field investigation, AMEC utilized Global Positioning System (GPS) technology.
The Phase I Cultural Resource Survey field activities were initiated on 6 December 2001 and completed on 13 February 2002. AMEC successfully collected a minimum of four (4) GPS coordinates for all test blocks in TAC Areas 11 and 12, and coordinates for items suspected to be of archaeological significance. Appendix 1 provides the Phase I Archaeological Survey Report for TAC Areas 11 and 12.
This file is the final version of this report.
