Period of performance: 2009 – 2010

We surveyed 2,214 acres to support the BLM’s tree-maintenance plan to help maintain a grasslands ecosystem. We identified 18 archaeological sites, including historical and prehistoric properties (most of which were Preceramic in age), prepared a historic context, and provided the BLM with recommendations for the eligibility of properties to the NRHP.
