The majority of these projects have been conducted for Twentvmile Peabody Coal mining activities. 25. Known Cultural Resources - In the project area: No previously recorded archaeological sites or isolated finds are located within the immediate project area. However, there is a high site density within about a mile to the north. In the general region (summarize): There are eleven previously recorded archaeological sites and 34 isolated finds in the sections of the project area; however none of these cultural resources are located inside the current survey area. See Table 2 for a list of the archaeological sites. They consist of one historic trash dump and prehistoric open camp, a segment of the historic Hayden to Twentvmile Park Road, a historic irrigation ditch, five prehistoric open camps, and three prehistoric open lithic scatters. The 34 isolated finds consist of prehistoric projectile points, groundstone, tools, and lithic flakes. General Land Office Maps dating to 1882 and 1915 were also consulted, and they do not depict any historic features in the immediate project area. Two ranches are depicted on the 1882 map, and irrigation ditches are on the 1915 map, but these resources are outside of the survey area. Table 1.
