No structures will be directly impacted as part of this project. A Phase I Archaeological Survey of the project was conducted by Mr.John Hodgson,Archaeologist,of Phase One Archaeological Services, Inc.

In response to study findings,the principal investigator does not recommend that any further archaeological investigations be required at the proposed project location prior to the planned construction."A copy of this archaeological report was provided to SHPO and is attached in Appendix F. b. The area of potential effects for visual effects was determined to be one and one-half(1.5)miles. This area is based on guidance contained in the Nationwide Programmatic Agreement.
