Plate 3. View of culvert feature within recorded segment. <br />The concrete abutments measure 90" long by 36" (estimated) tall by 8" wide, and encase the <br />24"diameter end of the corrugated pipe. <br />Evaluation and Managment Recommendation <br />Site 5MF.5138 is historic State Highway 13 and overall it has been deemed eligible <br />for listing on the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion A; associated with <br />events that have made a significant contribution to the broad pattern of our history. <br />Activities of the revisit included recording the segment within the study area as <br />5MF.5138.10, assessing its condition and evaluating its significance. Since the historic road <br />segment has been altered significantly at this location, this portion of the resource lacks <br />elements of integrity including feeling, setting, materials, design and workmanship. Only <br />integrity of the location and association remains, as seen on historic GLO maps and quad <br />maps. The proposed project will alter the topography within the segment, however since it <br />has already been affected by modernization (removal of asphalt), a new road bisecting the <br />segment and reclamation work, there will be no adverse effect to the resource. No further <br />work is recommended. <br />8.0 DISCUSSION <br />Although previous studies in the surrounding region have suggested occupation for <br />as long as 13,000 years – including new evidence of Paleoindian Era occupations in the <br />region – the generally heavy vegetation cover compounded by the historic farming in the <br />majority of Area 2 limited ground visibility throughout the study areas. As a result, no <br />9
