The Colorado State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) <br />concurred with this determination (Attachment D). A records check is currently <br />being done for the staging area. <br /> <br />3.5.2 Environmental Effects. <br /> <br />No Action. Even under the no action alternative, some cultural resources <br />may remain at risk. Urban expansion and agricultural practices could affect <br />cultural resources by destroying or damaging them. Natural processes such as <br />erosion, root and rodent intrusion, flooding, and grazing could destroy prehistoric <br />sites. Vandalism, through deliberate looting and collecting, is a national problem <br />and is expected to continue. <br /> <br />Proposed Action. Since the existing diversion was not eligible for the <br />National Register, replacing the diversion with the concrete wall would have no <br />effect on historic properties at the constructIon site. If any cultural resource sites <br />are found on the staging area, effects that the project would have on these sites <br />would be coordinated with the Colorado SHPO. <br /> <br />3.5.3 Mitigation. Any adverse effects would be mitigated in accordance <br />with the Section 106 process. <br /> <br />16 <br />
