i0 <br /> <br />chipping stations. Sane remarks discussing this differential site <br />density are presented in the concluding section of this report. <br />FIe.1D ~IHODOL.OGY <br />Previous Surveys <br />In general, each of the previously conducted surveys used <br />roughly parallel pedestrian transects at intervals ranging from <br />10 - 30 meters depending upon topography, surface visibility and <br />the nature of soil deposits. In the author's opinion, the described <br />field methods in each of these three previous reports are adequate <br />for the terrain and site expectations in the Kerr Permit Flea. <br />• 1980 [~,4I Survey <br />'Ihe gently to moderately sloped terrain presented few problems <br />ier pedestrian survey of the lease area. Topographic maps and canpass <br />bearings enabled location of section markers and mine boundary stakes <br />and these were recorded when found. The unsurveyed portions of the <br />project area were carefully examined by walking transects with each <br />crew member spaced from five to thirty meters apart, depending upon <br />width of the undisturbed and unsurveyed areas and vegetation. In <br />broad areas of limited vegetation, crew members walked 30 meter transects <br />parallei to known section lines. In areas restricted by mining oper- <br />ations, narrower transects were used, often following lease area <br />boundary fences aril stakes. Upon encountering historic or prehistoric <br />cultural remains the perimeter of the site was determined and arti- <br />factual concentrations located. Site information was recorded on <br />the site form and the topographic map. Crew members assisted in <br />
