'~- ;~ <br /> <br />~• 4.1 CONTROL OF IMPACTS TO CULTURAL AND HISTORICAL SITES AND STRUCTURES a ~~~~='°~ <br />%' ~~~ <br />All lands within and adjacent to the proposed mine plan area have been sur- <br />veyed for cultural and historical resources. These resources are discussed in <br />detail in Section 2.9 and Appendix R and are shown on Map M45. <br />Onder Title I of the Historic Preservation Act (1966), the Secretary of Inter- <br />ior is authorized to expand and maintain a National Register of districts, <br />sites, buildings, structures and objects significant in Pmerican history, <br />architecture, archaeology, and culture. The Colorado State Historical Society <br />hae been contacted to determine [he current National Register listings in Mof- <br />fat County. This list includes: <br />1) SThite-Indian Contact Site at Brown's Park, listed 3/8/77. <br />2) Old Lodore School a[ Brown's Park, listed 2/24/75. <br />3) David H. Moffat "Marcia" Pullman car at Craig, listed 6/20/75. <br />t^~ 4) Tvo-Bar Ranch at Maybell, listed 2/17/78. <br />None of the listed sites are. in or adjacent to the proposed mine plan area and <br />no new nominations are known to be pending for Moffat County. However, two <br />archaeological sites (SMF29D/549 and SMF948) evaluated during a 1980 cultural <br />resources survey for Trapper Mine have been recommended fo r testing of <br />eligibility for the National Register. (Refer to Section 2.9 a nd Appendix R <br />for more detail.) <br />In the future, any unidentified cultural or historical resources discovered on <br />lands within or adjacent to the proposed permit area will be reported as is <br />appropriate to the responsible regulatory agencies. If necessary, activities <br />that may damage or destroy such a find will be halted until [he area can be <br />evaluated by a qualified historian or archaeologist. Appropriate mitigative <br />measures will subsequently be initiated. Resumption of activity will not <br />begin until the evaluation is complete and the necessary information is col- <br />lected or protective measures are implemented. <br />~~ <br />~. <br />~ L';,. <br />4-2 , <br /> <br />
