Mount <br />Senior Environmental Protection Specialist <br />Division of Minerals & Geology_ _ ~ _ _ _ i_~ _ - _ _ <br />1313 Sherman Street, Rm. 215 <br />Denver, Colorado 80203 <br />Re: Yuma County, Mekelburg Pit No. 1, Permit No. M-81-179, AM-001 <br />Dear Mr. Mount: <br />This office has reviewed the cultural resource survey report prepared for <br />the gravel pit listed above. <br />We concur that SYM113, SYM114 and SYM115 are not eligible to the State <br />Register of Historic Places. SYM113 is the site of a homestead that has <br />been destroyed and SYM114 is a small dump. These sites are not associated <br />with persons or events important in history and will yield no further <br />information important to history. SYM115 is a small lithic scatter where <br />tool manufacture probably took place. Tt will yield no further information <br />important to prehistory. <br />Since no significant cultural resources were identified during an adequate <br />survey, we will concur with the no effect determination. <br />However, if previously unidentified archaeological resources are discovered <br />during construction, work must be interrupted until the resources are <br />evaluated in terms of the State Register of Historic Places eligibility <br />criteria in consultation with this office. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further <br />assistance please contact Jim Green at (303) 866-4674. <br />Sincerely, <br />.~ ~? C~ <br />James E. Hartmann <br />State Historic Preservation Officer <br />JEH/WJG <br />
