Abstract
At the request of Dames and Moore, Inc., the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology at Indiana University conducted an archaeological reconnaissance survey of 11.1 miles of proposed gas pipeline corridor in central Lake County, and provided revised comment on 6.5 miles of previously surveyed corridors in Lake and Porter Counties, Indiana. This project consists of two separate proposed gas pipelines segments (Segments No. 1 and 2) to be located Lake and Porter Counties, Indiana. The archaeological reconnaissance (field survey) of the project area was conducted by Mr. Eric Sipes, Mr. Larry Catt, and Ms. Wendy Natt from the middle to end of October 1996. The purpose of the reconnaissance was to locate archaeological cultural resources within the proposed pipeline corridor and to assess the potential of those resources for inclusion on the Indiana Register of Historic Sites and Structures and the National Register of Historic Places. This report describes the nature of the project and project area, the reconnaissance techniques employed, the findings, and the recommendations based upon these findings. Two previously unrecorded prehistoric archaeological sites (12 La 415 and 416) were discovered during the reconnaissance survey. In addition, ten archaeological sites (12 La 389 in Lake County, and 12 Pr 265, 480-487 in Porter County) were recorded within the previously surveyed portions of the project areas.
