Class III Cultural Resources Survey in Support of a Proposed Expansion of the P-21 System Pad, Nevada Test and Training Range, Nye County, Nevada

Part of the Nellis Air Force Base (DRAFT) project

Author(s): Lonnie C. Pippin

Year: 2011

Summary

The U. S. Air Force proposes to relocate an electronic system on an existing facility pad (P-21) on the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) in Nye County, Nevada (Figures 1 and 2). This site was chosen because it already has a concrete pad on which the system can be positioned and the site is already connected to the fiber optic network. Furthermore, there is an existing boresite tower pad associated with the P-21 pad that can be used by the new system. The existing P-21 facility pad, and the fiber optic line to it, was originally surveyed for cultural resources by Henton and Rennie (1985) when they examined a 30 meter (100 ft) wide and 100 meter (328 ft) long corridor to a 60 meter x 60 meter pad (3,600 m2; 0.9 acres). They did not discover any cultural resources in this area and recommended no effect on historic properties from its construction and use.
