Abstract

At the request of Hoosier Energy REC, Inc., the Glenn A. Black Laboratory of Archaeology, Office of Cultural Resource Management, Indiana University (GBL-OCRM) conducted a Phase Ia archaeological survey of the impact area of the proposed Bristow 161kV substation and 161kV tapline in Perry County, Indiana. The property surveyed is located approximately 0.2 miles southeast of Bristow, Indiana. A total of approximately 1.5 acres were surveyed; approximately 0.6 acres were subject to overview (Figure 2). The purposes of the survey were to: (1) identify and document all cultural resources in the project area, (2) evaluate any sites found for eligibility for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and the Indiana Register of Historic Sites and Structures (IRHSS), and (3) make recommendations for the protection of significant and potentially significant sites. This survey was conducted in compliance with Section 106 of the 1966 National Historic Preservation Act (1992, as amended). Fieldwork was conducted on 13-14 May 2003 by GBL-OCRM archaeologists Bryan Will, Johnie Sanders, Michael Darland, Holly Hilton, and Valentin Milkov. No previously unrecorded archaeological sites were documented during the survey, nor is there a potential for cultural deposits to occur in the area. No further archaeological investigation is recommended. Cultural resource clearance is recommended for the proposed substation and tapline provided that all earth-moving activities are restricted to the currently delineated project area boundaries.
