Summary

Salt River Project Agricultural Improvement and Power District (SRP) requested North Wind Resource Consulting, LLC (North Wind) conduct a Class III cultural resources resurvey of an approximately 8-mile-long transmission right-of-way along State Route (SR) 87 on Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community (SRP-MIC) land in Maricopa County, Arizona (Figure 1). Emergency repairs and replacements were made to transmission poles within the survey area following a severe monsoon storm, which caused significant damage. The survey was conducted to determine if cultural resources were impacted as a result of the emergency repairs. The survey area consists of the 45.06-acre linear transmission right-of-way along SR 87.

Salt River Ordinance 102-86 requires identification and treatment of archaeological resources endangered by proposed construction activities on the SRP-MIC. The project is considered an undertaking requiring compliance with Section 106 of the NHPA, which requires a federal agency to consider the effects of its undertakings on historic properties (cultural resources eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places [NRHP]).
