Site 5BN163 (a homestead site) was officially classified as "Needs Data" <br />(further study is needed) in August 1980, but no further research was ever completed. Site 5BN.391 <br />contains several segments of the Old Santa Fe Trail; these were determined to be eligible for the <br />National Register of Historic Places in October 1986. <br />Our files contain incomplete information for this area, as most of Colorado has not yet been <br />inventoried for cultural resources. As a result, there is the possibility that as yet unidentified cultural <br />resources exist within the permit area. Should human remains be discovered during reclamation <br />activities, the requirements under State law CRS 24-80 part 13 apply and must be followed. <br />We were unable to determine whether this proposed action would have an adverse effect on either <br />property, as the maps that we received were of poor quality and did not show the extent of the planned <br />operation (the maps that came with your 26 March 20081etter were very dark photocopies). Please <br />submit clear drawings or maps showing the location of the proposed operation at your earliest <br />convenience. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further assistance, please contact Greg <br />Wolff, Section 106 Compliance Coordinator, at (303) 866-4674. <br />S~uicnerenly, ~ ^ <br />~ V V ~wV- <br />~Georgianna Contiguglia <br />State Historic Preservation ficer <br /> <br />1300 BROADWAY DENVER COLORADO 80203 TEL 303/866-3395 FAx 303/866-271 i www.coloradohistory-oakp.org <br />E•c~ OFFICE o/' ARCHAEOLOGY and HISTORIC PRESERVATION <br />
