A Cultural Resource Survey for a 69kV Transmission Line in Gilbert, Maricopa County, Arizona

Author(s): Pamela J. Rainey

Year: 2020

Summary

SRP plans to construct a new 69kV transmission line to connect the Humphrey and Turpen substations to provide additional energy to SRP customers and to meet anticipated future needs. The new transmission line will tie into Humphrey Substation, on Riggs Road just west of Lindsay Road, using the existing poles along Riggs Road. From Val Vista Drive, a new line will be constructed from Riggs Road continuing north to Appleby Road and then turn west to meet Turpen Substation at the northeast corner of Appleby Road and Lindsay Road. Fifty-five to 70 new poles will be installed along Val Vista Drive and Appleby Road. The poles will be constructed of Douglas fir trees or weathered steel and will be 65 to 75 feet tall and spaced 250 to 350 feet apart.

SRP contracted EcoPlan to conduct a Class III intensive pedestrian cultural resource prior to construction of the new transmission line. The purpose of the survey reported here was to identify cultural resources within the project area, assess their eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) in accordance with 36 Code of Federal Regulations 60.4, and make a recommendation concerning the potential effect of the proposed undertaking on cultural resources listed in or eligible for listing in the NRHP.
