A Class III Cultural Resources Reconnaissance for the TPK-49 Bypass Road Improvement, Nellis Air Force Range, Nye County, Nevada

Part of the Nellis Air Force Base (DRAFT) project

Author(s): Susan Edwards

Year: 1998

Summary

The Desert Research Institute was tasked to conduct a cultural resources reconnaissance of the proposed project area. The planned undertaking involves widening an existing 4.5 m (15 ft) wide two-track dirt road, the emplacement of two culverts, and the burial of a surface-laid fiber optic line along side the road. The area of potential effect (APE), approximately 4.1 hectares (10.1 acres), was inspected for cultural resources by a pair of linear transects covering a 30 m (100 ft) wide right-of way. An extension of a previously recorded site (26Ny9137) was identified during the survey. This site consists of an extensive lithic scatter with an associated rock shelter and rock alignment.
