Author(s): Kimberly Spurr

Year: 2017

Summary

Past Peoples Consulting, LLC, was requested by Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) to complete a pedestrian survey to identify and evaluate cultural resources at two facilities in northern Arizona. One survey parcel was within the boundary of the Navajo Generating Station near Page and the second parcel was within the fenced boundary of the SRP/Peabody Western Coal Company (PWCC) Coal Loading Station near Kayenta. Fieldwork took place between March 26 and 30, 2017. The survey documented four previously unknown sites and reevaluated eight previously documented sites; one previously recorded site was not relocated. This report presents the results of the field survey, descriptions of all sites, and management recommendations for SRP.
