We again thank you for <br />including reference maps and GIS with your request for review as this information greatly facilitates our review <br />process. <br />Following our expedited review, it is our opinion that a finding of no historic properties affected [36 CFR <br />800.4(d)(1)] is appropriate for the proposed undertaking. This determination is based on the negative results of <br />prior cultural resources inventories within the APE that were completed in 2004, 2007 and 2011. <br />In addition to contacting the Bureau of Land Management, where the proposed road is sited, the Section 106 <br />consultation process does involve other consulting parties such as the local governments and Tribes, which as <br />stipulated in 36 CFR 800.3 are required to be notified of the undertaking. Additional information provided by <br />these or other consulting parties may cause our office to re- evaluate our comments and recommendations. <br />Should unidentified archaeological resources be discovered in the course of the projects, work must be interrupted until <br />the resources have been evaluated in terms of the National Register of Historic Places eligibility criteria (36 CFR 60.4) <br />in consultation with our office. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further assistance, please contact Mark Tobias, Section <br />106 Compliance Manager, at (303) 866 -4674 or mark.tobias a.state.co.us. <br />Sincerely, <br />/ LA, <br />Edward C.
