NARRATIVE OF PROJECT
As part of the Federal Office of Surface Mining Special Stipulations in
connection with Energy Fuels Mine 1-2-Ec,<man Park Extension (Routt County
Colorado) there were 2 special stipulations concerning cultural resources.
These stipulations, X20 and 21, were developed after a 04 January 1980 meeting
between Energy Fuels, OSh1, the State Historic Preservation Officer, and the
State Archaeologist. Exhibit 1 recounts the exchange of compliance documents
leading to these certain requirements. Energy Fuels retained the author to
accomplish these stipulations for them.
In addition to preliminary investigations, and later report and compliance
construction, the author, with professional historian Barbara Norgren (both
vitae appended as Exhibit 8) in company with several Energy Fuels Mine staff,
conducted onsite investigations, on 04 and 05 June 1980, of cultural resources
5RT32 and 5RT192.
Exhibits (3) - (7) have resulted from this effort and crnstitute compliance
with these special, cultural resource management stipulations, as evinced by
letters of conveyance (to OSA1, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation,
and the State Historic Preservation Officer) attached to this Final Report's
cover letter to Energy Fuels on 20 June 1980.
' 2. NARRATIVE OF 5RT32 INSPECTIONS
' (Bruce Rippeteau)
' I. INTRODUCTION
On 04 June 1980, I examined 5RT32 to familiarize myself ~•rith this prehistoric
archaeological site and to assist in the preparation of a National Register of
Historical Places nomination in connection with the Office of Surface Mining
Special Stipulations 20 and 21 for Approval of Energy fuels Mines 1-2-Eckman
Park Extension. The work was performed with the on-site presence of htr. Rick
Brown, P1anager of Engineering for Energy Fuels, along with Mr. Gordon I,Jren of
that Company, and various other representatives of Energy Fuels and Powers
' Elevation, and under antiquities permits: BLM 80-CO-75 and State Archaeologist
80-21.
II. EXISTIiVG SITE DATA
The environs of the Energy Fuels project nave been variously surveyed by
Powers Elevation, Colorado State University, and Bureau of Land Management arch-
' geologists throughout the 1970's. 5RT32 was identified in a June 1975 survey
by CSU, along with 5RT33 and 5RT34, both of which are to the immediate west.
Their findings were reported on a standard Site Survey Form for the Office of
Colorado State Archaeologist and this is reproduced as Exhibit 2.
