Re: Preliminary report of the cultural resources inventory
for Sheridan Enterprizes in the Douglas Pass Area,
Dear Sir:
On September 3 23 & 25, this surveyor, as person in
direct charge, assisted by Phil Born and John Lindstrom
conducted an intensive survey of access roads and explora-
tory drilling operations for Sheridan Enterorizes. In
addition, blocks of land were also surveyed for archeologi-
cal remains. This letter concerns only a portion of the
lands involved in the plans projected by Sheridan Enter -
prizes, The surveyed lands are found in: the NEI; and
SEk Sec. 5; the SWk Sec. 4, the Nz of Sec. 9, and the SV;,
Seca 27, of T. 75, R 102W. 6th P.M. The surveyed areas
are marked on the attached copy of the Howard Canyon quad-
rangle map, The areas surveyed are outlined in red on the
attachment. Acreages adjacent to the survey area were not
intensively inspected because of the urgent nature of this
survey. However, a general reconnaissance was conducted of
suspect areas immediately adjacent to the project area.
No surface manifestations of cultural resources were
observed, therefore it is our recommendation that no miti-
gatory procedures be enacted by the Bureau of Land Manage-
ment.
.Respectfully submitted,
Carl E. Conner
