Summary

The Aspen Products Pipeline Limited Liability Corporation (Aspen L.L.C.) proposes to transport refined petroleum products from west Texas to markets in New Mexico, western Colorado, and Utah. To facilitate compliance with federal statutes and regulations regarding consultation with Native American tribes, the Bureau of Land Management in conjunction with Manti-La Sal and Uinta National Forests, requested that the Aspen L.L.C. produce an overview of Native American ethnohistory and land use based on available literature and archival records pertaining to a seven county study area which includes the proposed Aspen Products Pipeline Project corridor. Under contract to the Aspen L.L.C., SWCA, Inc., Environmental Consultants (SWCA), produced this report regarding ethnohistoric Native American occupation and land use of this study area, which includes Grant, Carbon, Emery, Sanpete, Utah, Salt Lake, and Davis counties, Utah.

The goal of this overview is to review documented Native American occupation and land use of the proposed Aspen Products Pipeline Project corridor.
