Cultural Resources Investigations along Reaches 1 and 2 of the San Carlos Irrigation Project Rehabilitation, Florence, Arizona: Photo Log and Contact Sheets

Summary

n accordance with the provisions of the 2004 Arizona Water Settlement Act, the Bureau of Reclamation, Phoenix Area Office (PXAO) assisted the San Carlos Irrigation and Drainage District (SCIDD) in the preparation of an environmental assessment (EA) prior to the rehabilitation of portions of the San Carlos Irrigation Project, a Bureau of Indian Affairs water delivery system that serves both the Gila River Indian Community and SCIDD. The project area extends along the current and realigned portions of the Florence Canal, from the sediment basin just south of the Ashurst-Hayden Diversion Dam to Picacho Reservoir.

In order to comply with stipulations set forth in the EA, all historic properties within the expanded APE must be mitigated prior to construction. At the request of PXAO, Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. prepared a historic property treatment plan (treatment plan) to conduct Phase 2 data recovery at AZ U:15:676(ASM), eligibility testing at AZ U:15:861(ASM), Phase 1 data recovery for the new and previously uninvestigated portions of the canal alignment at AZ U:15:124(ASM) and AZ U:15:663(ASM), and Phase 2 data recovery based on previous excavations within the revised APE at AZ U:15:663(ASM).
