Part VIII of Appendix K). The archaeological site descriptions and recommendations as recorded by <br /> Archaeological Services are as follows. <br /> Site number 5MF945: <br /> SW/NW/SW/SE Sec.29-T6N-R91W(UTM: #A, 13,277160 mE,4480120 mN. #B 13,277120 mE,4480100 <br /> mN. #C, 13,277170 mE, 4480080 mN. #D, 13,277160 mE, 4480100 mN). A lithic scatter with a <br /> concentration of primary and secondary flakes (suggesting a possible tool manufacturing location), a <br /> grinding tool(mano)fragment,and several fire-cracked rock fragments were recorded. Evidence most likely <br /> indicates a campsite of temporary nature. The site does not appear to be eligible for the National Register. <br /> No further work is recommended. <br /> Site number 5MF946: <br /> CNV-1/2/SE/SW/NW Sec. 34-T6N-R91W. (UTM: #A, 13,279800 mE, 4479150 mN. #13, 13,279780 mE, <br /> 4479130 mN. #C, 13,279800 mE, 4479120 mN. #D, 13,279820 mE, 4479130 mN). A lithic scatter was <br /> found on a small sandstone outcropping above an intermittent stream. Retouched flakes, one side-notched <br /> base, one obsidian flake, and one corner-notched base were found within a concentration of chalcedony <br /> flakes. This site was completely surface collected, gridded and shovel tested, at the instructions of the <br /> Principal Investigator. No further work is recommended. <br /> Site number 5MF947: <br /> -SE/NE/SW/NW of Sec. 34-T6N-R91W. (UTM: 13,279900 mE, 4479200mN).A lithic scatter is located on a <br /> knoll between two minor streams, and adjacent to a large intermittent stream drainage. This site was <br /> completely surface collected, gridded and shovel tested by order of the Principal Investigator. No further <br /> work is recommended. <br /> Site number 5MF948: <br /> NW/SE/SW/SE of Sec. 5-T5N-R90W. (UTM 13,286797 mE, 4476297 mN). [Note: Location given in <br /> Appendix K, Part Vlll is incorrect.] A pictograph and petroglyph site is located on the sandstone wall of a <br /> cliff on the south side of the Williams Fork Mountains. The drainage culminates at the Williams Fork River. <br /> Extensive color photographs were taken of this site in order to show the contrast of red and yellow ocher. <br /> This site will be recommended to the National Register.Avoidance is recommended. If construction activity <br /> comes within 50 feet of the site, the site should be fenced. Site 5MF948 is located inside the permit <br /> boundary but outside of the proposed mine plan area, therefore no disturbance of this site is anticipated. <br /> During a 2013 re-survey by Grand River Institute, the site's original recorded location was determined to <br /> have been incorrect(approximately 550 meters to the east-southeast of the corrected location assessed in <br /> 2013). The features of this site are determined to demonstrate association with prehistoric and native <br /> lifeways. The potential for additional buried cultural deposits was determined by the 2013 survey to be <br /> significant. The expansion of mining activities into the canyon in which the site is located will be minimized <br /> and the canyon area adjacent to the site will be avoided by any surface disturbing activities. <br /> 2-590 — <br /> ,:)vision: <br /> Approved: <br />
