Archaeological Investigations for Proposed Improvements to the Industrial Area Interior Perimeter Road at Arnold Air Force Base

Author(s): Shawn Chapman

Year: 2008

Summary

Summary report of a phase I archaeological survey project that was initiated to identify and evaluate its potential impact on cultural resources for the proposed construction of the industrial area interior perimeter road. Investigations included a review of the existing site records, visual inspection and shovel testing. Records search indicated five sites are located within one-mile of the various project areas but none were impacted by the proposed undertaking. Visual inspection showed that the project area has been subjected to various degrees of disturbance from previous clearing and landscape sculpting during installation of the perimeter fence. No prehistoric cultural material of any kind was observed during visual inspection of the bare ground or in any of the 125 shovel tests. No archaeological sites were recorded as a result of this investigation and the five project areas are recommended cleared from a cultural resources perspective.
