LET-688: SHPO Transmittal Letter for the Replace 12 kV Switchgear at Switchyard M Project

Author(s): Jason M. Aftanas

Year: 2019

Summary

This document is a Section 106 transmittal letter to the California State Historic Preservation Office for the Replace 12 kV Switchgear at Switchyard M Project. The letter briefly describes the purpose and activities associated with the project. It discusses the presence of archaeological site CA-SBA-2427 and the result of the effort by the base archaeologist to survey a portion of the project area that was not previously examined for the identification of archaeological resources. The letter relates that no new resources were identified but also that ground visibility was limited due to vegetation and the presence of poison oak also hampered access. The letter continued to delineate the project area of potential effect and seeks concurrence for 1) the delineation of the APE, 2) the assumed eligibility of CA-SBA-2427 for the current project only, 3) the determination that Building 727 is not a historic property because it was built in 1991. It further stipulates that an archaeological and Native American monitor will required for all ground disturbing activity within the APE and temporary exclusionary fencing will be erected around CA-SBA-2427.
