356 Class III Inventory, Colowyo's Collom Mine Project <br />Research by MAC in 1995 indicated that the site was likely homestead by George Collins. A review <br />of the MTP and Historical Indices for T3N, R94W, shows that the site lies within a 242 -acre parcel <br />that received a Homestead Entry Patent (HE No. 1025187) on March 26, 1929. The BLM website <br />lists George W'. Collins as the patent holder for 325 acres. The patent was filed (035636) at the <br />General Land Office in Denver and was not cancelled or relinquished. This would place the initial <br />time frame of occupation during the Depression era. <br />NRHP Eligibility Recommendation and Project Effect Site 5MF4000 was recommended as not <br />eligible for inclusion on the NRHP, and the Colorado OAHP officially agreed with that evaluation. <br />The current inventory evaluation also concurs with that assessment. The site is not associated with <br />any event or person (George Collins) that played a significant role in the history of the region. The <br />collapsed cabin has a utilitarian design with poor physical integrity and does not exemplify any <br />particular qualities of craftsmanship. There is no potential for buried cultural deposits. The site will <br />contribute no significant information regarding domestic or socioeconomic activities conducted at <br />the site. <br />The site currently lies within the mine permit boundary and may be affected by the undertaking. <br />There will be no effect from the proposed project because the site is recommended as not eligible <br />for the NRHP. Cultural resource clearance is ecommended, with no further work. <br />6.2.29 Site 5MF4001 <br />Site Tyne Historic homestead <br />Legal Locatio Section 10, T3N, R94W <br />Landowner Private <br />Site Dimensio 131 x 118 ft <br />Site Descriptio Site 5MF4001 occurs within the southern portion of the current Colowyo Collom <br />Mine project area.
