In November and December of 2003 and April through September of 2004, Great Lakes Archaeological Research Center, Inc. conducted Phase III data recovery operations at the Kieler I site (47GT593) on behalf of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation and the Federal Highways Administration as part of the reconstruction of USH 151, Dickeyville to Belmont, Grant and Lafayette counties, Wisconsin (WisDOT Project ID #1209-02-00).
This archaeological investigation was conducted in conjunction with the Phase I, II, and III investigations of the nearby Bend in the Creek site (47GT693). Nearly 40,000 prehistoric artifacts as well as 1555.94 g of faunal and fl oral material were recovered from Kieler I and the cultural assemblage indicates occupations at the site in the Late Archaic Durst phase (1000 – 500 B.C.), Early Woodland Indian Isle and Prairie phases (500 BC – AD 100), and the Middle Woodland Millville phase (AD 200 – 500), with earlier and later occupations also likely. The most substantial occupation occurred in the Prairie phase (100 BC – AD 100) when the site may have harbored a residential camp. Following the Phase III excavations, much of the Kieler I site was obliterated by the USH 151 reconstruction process.
During the 1979 field season, 9 sites were excavated. This was to provide information about the Sagehen Flats Locality during the Sagehen Phase. Investigation revealed 5 were limited activity sites and 4 were hamlets. Tres Bobos, Site 5MT4545, is a Basketmaker III habitation. Excavations discovered 1 pithouse and 14 surface rooms. Tres Bobos was occupied between A.D. 600-850. Apricot Hamlet, Site 5MT2858, is a multiple occupation Basketmaker III/Pueblo I site. Excavations revealed a pithouse and a pitstructure. The site was occupied between A.D. 635 and 680, and reoccupied between A.D. 750 and 800. Aldea Sierritas (Site 5MT2854) is an Anasazi hamlet. Investigation revealed 2 pithouses and 3 surface rooms. This occupation has been assigned to the transition between the Tres Bobos and Sagehill III Subphases. Prairie Dog Hamlet, Site 5MT4614, dated to the late Basketmaker III-early Pueblo I periods. The site had 2 occupations (A.D. 600-760). Casa Bodega Hamlet (Site 5MT2194) is a Pueblo I habitation site. Excavations revealed a single household cluster consisting of a pithouse, 3 storage facilities, a work area, and a trash area. The ceramic data places occupation between A.D. 775 and 850. Dos Casas Hamlet (Site 5MT2193) is a Basketmaker III/Pueblo I site. Investigations recorded 2 pithouses, surface rooms, and occupation areas. Pithouse 1 was constructed around A.D. 760 and Pithouse 2 was constructed approximately 10 years later. Windy Wheat Hamlet (Site 5MT4644) is a Pueblo I site. Three elements, occurring between A.D. 740 and the early 800's, were recognized. Cascade House (Site 5MT4512) is a Pueblo I field house. A pithouse and pitroom and 2 masonry/jacal storage rooms were excavated. Cascade House appears to have been occupied during the ninth century A.D. Casa Roca, Site 5MT2203, is a seasonal, single-component site assigned to the McPhee Phase (A.D. 850-970).

The MassDEP Tier Classified Oil and/or Hazardous Material Sites datalayer is a statewide point dataset containing the approximate location of oil and/or hazardous material disposal sites that have been (1) reported and (2) Tier Classified under M.G.L. Chapter 21E and the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP). Location types featured in this datalayer include the approximate center of a site, the center of a building on the property where the release occurred, the source of contamination, or the location of an on-site monitoring well. For the purposes of this document, the terms "MassDEP Tier Classified oil and/or hazardous material disposal sites" and "Tier Classified Chapter 21E sites" are synonymous and are often referred to simply as "sites". Releases of oil and/or hazardous materials are reported to the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection's (MassDEP) Bureau of Waste Site Cleanup (BWSC), according to procedures established in the MCP (310 CMR 40.0000). The sites mapped in this datalayer represent only a subset of the total reported Chapter 21E sites tracked by MassDEP BWSC. Chapter 21E sites that have not yet been Tier Classified are not contained in this datalayer. Under Massachusetts' Waste Site Cleanup Program, which is a largely privatized program, Tier IA classified sites and Immediate Response Actions (IRAs) at any site receive direct MassDEP oversight. Data maintained by the MassDEP regarding site location are provided to MassDEP BWSC by potentially responsible parties (PRPs) and by licensed site professionals (LSPs), who work for the PRPs. Location data is provided in a paper format (e.g., map and textual information) by PRPs and LSPs and maintained by MassDEP BWSC in individual site files. These site files are available to the public through the MassDEP's Regional Offices. Anyone wishing to view Chapter 21E site files can make arrangements with the regional offices though a Freedom of Information request. MassDEP encourages persons to review these site files when they make decisions that consider a specific site. Most of the site locations included in the MassDEP Tier Classified Oil and/or Hazardous Material Sites datalayer are interpretations of data provided by PRPs and LSPS converted to a digital format by MassDEP staff. These data have not been field-verified. In some cases where file information was inadequate or unavailable, locations were provided by MassDEP technical staff through knowledge gained in the course of their professional activities. The rules requiring notification, assessment and remediation of releases of oil and hazardous materials are codified in the Massachusetts Contingency Plan (MCP) 310 CMR 40.0000. Under the MCP and M.G.L. Chapter 21E, the PRPs are responsible for the timely assessment and cleanup of disposal sites in Massachusetts. The MassDEP BWSC is required to audit PRP response actions performed on 20% of the sites and when necessary provides direct agency oversight of cleanup efforts. If permanent cleanup is not achieved for a disposal site within a year of being reported to MassDEP, the site must be classified as Tier I or II in accordance with the MCP's numerical ranking system (NRS), outlined in 310 CMR 40.1500. The NRS is a point system based on a variety of factors, including the site's complexity, the type of contamination, and the potential for human or environmental exposure to the contamination. In addition, some sites are automatically given a Tier I classification if they pose an imminent hazard or affect public water supplies. A site's Tier Classification determines the level of MassDEP oversight. Tier I sites require a permit and Tier IA sites, considered to be the most complicated sites, require direct MassDEP BWSC oversight.
The Superintendent of Hubbell Trading Post National Historic Site (HUTR) requested that the Bureau of Reclamation, Phoenix Area Office (Reclamation) reidentify and reassess historic and prehistoric cultural remains that had been identified during previous surveys of the 160-acre historic site. The Superintendent also requested that a small sample survey be undertaken to help evaluate the accuracy of the previous surveys. On behalf of HUTR and the National Park Service (NPS), Reclamation contracted with Archaeological Consulting Services, Ltd. (ACS) of Tempe, Arizona, to conduct the resurvey.
ACS’s initial survey efforts in December 2001 and May 2002 documented the extremely active and complex geomorphological processes forming the landscape visible today. HUTR is situated on the geologic floodplain of Pueblo Colorado Wash in an area of active dune formation and colluvial slopewash. All three processes have the potential to erode, deflate, and/or bury archaeological sites, and prior research indicates that all three processes have obscured and confused the archaeological evidence. Cultural remains might be buried, and thus invisible, and/or cultural remains might be in the process of being destroyed through erosion. Accordingly, discussions with the Park Superintendent and Reclamation resulted in a secondary contract between HUTR and ACS to document the geomorphology affecting the historic site and to reconstruct the processes that created the landscape visible today. These are select photos taken during this project. The photo log can be found at tDAR ID: 393992. The report is available at tDAR ID: 393991.

This is the catalogue for archaeological materials recovered by David Phillipson's British Institute in Eastern Africa-sponsored research in 1974 and 1979. The research was funded by the Ford Foundation and United Nations’ Integrated Project in Arid Lands and was undertaken in the town of North Horr, Kenya. Four sites (North Horr I, II, III and IV) were recorded and two sites (North Horr I and II) were subject to subsurface testing and those two sites are archived in this catalogue.
The Center for Cultural and Environmental History (CCEH) at the University of Massachusetts Boston conducted a Phase I Site Identification of The Old Manse Boathouse in Concord, Massachusetts. With no previous surveys conducted in the area of the boathouse, the archaeological survey of the remains of a stone boathouse foundation and its surrounding area was directly linked to the planned reconstruction of a new boathouse and canoe facility. The Old Manse property derives its primary significance as the home to some of America’s best known literary figures, including Ralph Waldo Emerson and Nathaniel Hawthorne. Based on documentary research though, the boathouse was actually built during the late 19th-century. Fifteen shovel test pits, each measuring 50 cm2, were positioned along a staggered 10-meter grid in the meadow east of the boathouse. Five judgmental test pits were positioned along the orientation of the proposed dock. A block of nine excavation units (6-m by 6-m), three of which were excavated, was utilized to examine the boathouse foundation. Based on subsurface testing, the meadow east of the boathouse appears to possess medium to high prehistoric archaeological integrity. Excavations in and around the boathouse revealed a high degree of modern refuse as well as numerous items dating to the late 19th-century when the boathouse was in use. Given the possibility of erosion and sedimentation in the area, much of the archaeological record has disappeared around the boathouse. Our archaeological investigation provided a slight glimpse into the brief history of the boathouse at the turn of the century. In addition to the previous investigations conducted at The Old Manse, the presence of a prehistoric occupation is further substantiated, based on the various artifacts discovered, including projectile points and grit-tempered ceramic fragments. Such prehistoric evidence increases our knowledge of the Native American habitation in Concord, Massachusetts.

The Fort A.P. Hill Cultural Resource Manager, under the Environmental Division of the Directorate of Public Works within Fort A.P. Hill, Virginia, completed Phase I archaeological survey in association with proposed forestry activities in 10 forestry blocks located in Training Areas 5, 7, and 8; Controlled Access Area 16; the Boy Scout Jamboree (BSJ) area; and the unmanned aerial vehicle landing area, Fort A.P. Hill, Caroline County, Virginia. The proposed forestry activities included one clearcut (UAV Tree Clearing), one hardwood selection cut (Block CA16B-09, and eight prescribed burn areas (05-J-FY10, 05-L-FY10, 05-M-FY10, 07-BFY10, 08-B-FY10, 08-D-FY10, BSJ-10-FY10, and BSJ-12-FY10). The Project Area consists of approximately 906.7 hectares (2,240.5 acres) of forestland. The objective of the archaeological survey was to identify any historic properties that may be located within the proposed forestry blocks and evaluate the potential eligibility of any such resources for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Ten previously recorded archaeological sites (44CE0323, 44CE0324, 44CE0327, 44CE0328, 44CE0329, 44CE03339, 44CE0528, 44CE0540, 44CE0575, and 44CE0577) and two previously unrecorded archaeological sites (44CE0673 and 44CE0674) were identified within the Project Area. Five sites (44CE0328, 44CE0329, 44CE0339, 44CE0575, and 44CE0577) are recommended not eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places and seven sites (44CE0323, 44CE0324, 44CE0327, 44CE0528, 44CE0540, 44CE0673, and 44CE0674) are recommended potentially eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. While Site 44CE024 will be avoided during proposed forestry activities, none of the remaining archaeological sites will be avoided during the proposed activities.

These data provide an initial release of combined NVC conversion data with data from the Saltmarsh survey, Sand Dune survey, Coastal Vegetated Shingle survey and extracts from the Native Woodland Survey. National Forest Inventory / SG IACS / HES Historic Landuse Assessment. The process of reclassifying NVC to EUNIS/Annex I varies depending on the source of the data. The NVC conversion data and the Sand Dune data have initially been converted to Annex I on a site by site basis. Annex I values have then been mapped to EUNIS at a national level. None Annex I qualifying habitats have now been reclassified to EUNIS also. The Saltmarsh data have been mapped to both EUNIS and Annex I directly at site level. The Coastal Vegetated Shingle survey was conducted using Annex I. Only 2 Annex I habitats were mapped. These were later given EUNIS codes, one of which was a composite code. It is not possible to determine the component EUNIS types for this composite code. Data from the Native Woodland survey has been extracted on the basis of NVC types mapping to specific Annex I habitats. This has been augmented by SNH specialist staff. The data do not contain mosaics, geometries have been duplicated. Each habitat has: - a geometry, - a habitat proportion value that represents the area of the polygon covered by that habitat, - an area figure in hectares (calculated from the proportion and the polygon geometry). - a mosaic field indicates if the habitat is part of a mosaic a habitat number field indicates the number of habitats occurring within a specific polygon - a habmos source indicating a broad grouping of data processed in a particular way - a site or survey id indicating which site or survey from the wider series is referenced - a survey type field that indicates the classification system used in the original survey - a survey date which gives the year in which the data was collected - a data owner - indicating where the data IPR resides Habitat_code - This can be a EUNIS code from EUNIS, the European Nature Information System or a new EUNIS unit as created in the SNH Manual of terrestrial EUNIS habitats in Scotland (https://www.nature.scot/snh-commissioned-report-766-manual-terrestrial-eunis-habitats-scotland) New EUNIS units can be new sub-type that relates to an Annex I habitat type new sub-type that does not relate to an Annex I habitat type composite unit that includes a number of EUNIS types, all of which translate to the same Annex I habitat type. Habitat_name - For EUNIS codes including EUNIS composite types that match Annex I habitats this is the Annex I habitat code and name as listed in Appendix1. For EUNIS types that do not equal an Annex I habitat this is the EUNIS name as listed in the SNH EUNIS manual correspondence tables(see Document downloads under https://www.nature.scot/snh-commissioned-report-766-manual-terrestrial-eunis-habitats-scotland) EUNIS_COMPONENT - This field is used to list the EUNIS type if Habitat_code is a composite unit. COMPONENT_NAME - The name of the EUNIS type. Where contributing data has been surveyed at Annex I level or converted to Annex I and then to EUNIS, the HABITAT_CODE field may contain EUNIS and EUNIS composite codes, but there will not be any values in the EUNIS_COMPONENTS or COMPONENT_NAME fields as it is not possible to derive component codes from the Annex I habitat or EUNIS composite.

The Center for Cultural and Environmental History (CCEH) at the University of Massachusetts Boston conducted a limited Phase I Reconnaissance Survey of Houghton Garden in Newton (Chestnut Hill), Massachusetts. With no previous surveys conducted in the area, the reconnaissance survey of 10 acres around Houghton Pond was directly linked to the rehabilitation of the paths and the construction of informational kiosks. Houghton Garden is listed in the State and National Registers of Historic Places as a resource, which contributes to the significance of the Old Chestnut Hill Historic District. The Garden derives its primary significance from the semi-naturalistic rock garden started in 1906 by Clement S. and Martha G. Houghton. Seventy-seven shovel test pits, each measuring 50 cm2, were positioned along a staggered 20-meter grid system across the property. Two judgmental test pits were positioned at the base of a large rock outcropping, believed to be a rockshelter. Based on the subsurface testing, the property encompassing Houghton Garden appears to possess low to medium archaeological significance. The extensive degree of landscaping across the property has since destroyed much of the archaeological record. Our investigations provided a slight glimpse of the property’s land use history since the late 19th-century. In addition to the Rock Garden itself, the public garden has primarily retained evidence of the early 20th-century landscaping conducted by Warren M. Manning, increasing our knowledge of park construction regarding water features and naturalistic gardens.

In November and December of 2003 and April through September of 2004, Great Lakes Archaeological Research Center, Inc. conducted Phase III data recovery operations at the Kieler I site (47GT593) on behalf of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation and the Federal Highways Administration as part of the reconstruction of USH 151, Dickeyville to Belmont, Grant and Lafayette counties, Wisconsin (WisDOT Project ID #1209-02-00).
This archaeological investigation was conducted in conjunction with the Phase I, II, and III investigations of the nearby Bend in the Creek site (47GT693). Nearly 40,000 prehistoric artifacts as well as 1555.94 g of faunal and fl oral material were recovered from Kieler I and the cultural assemblage indicates occupations at the site in the Late Archaic Durst phase (1000 – 500 B.C.), Early Woodland Indian Isle and Prairie phases (500 BC – AD 100), and the Middle Woodland Millville phase (AD 200 – 500), with earlier and later occupations also likely. The most substantial occupation occurred in the Prairie phase (100 BC – AD 100) when the site may have harbored a residential camp. Following the Phase III excavations, much of the Kieler I site was obliterated by the USH 151 reconstruction process.
