Cultural Resource Survey for the ID 46 kV Powerline Upgrade Project, Bernalillo County, New Mexico

Summary

Cultural Resources Inventory of a 17,428 ft (5,312 m), 328 ft (100 m) corridor centered on the extant ID 46 kV powerline located a total of 18 archaeological sites and 17 isolated occurrences. Sites include 10 newly recorded sites and eight previously recorded sites.

Class I site file searches had indicated that as many as 21 previously recorded sites might occur within the project corridor. These searches also revealed that considerable confusion existed as to site location and condition. Twelve sites were not relocated; these were presumably misplotted and many have been subsequently destroyed during the construction of Interstate 40. One site was largely destroyed; the remains of this site was recorded as part of a newly recorded site.

Included among the 18 sites are eight historic sites and 10 prehistoric sites. Eleven of the 18 sites are recommended as eligible to the National Register of Historic Places. Data is insufficient to recommend the eligibility for one site. Avoidance of all sites is recommended prior to determinations of eligibility through the consultation process. The data potential of the isolated occurrences is considered exhausted by field recordation.
