An Archeological Overview and Management Plan for the Green River Launch Complex.

Abstract

The Green River Launch Complex (GRLC) located in Grand Country, Utah, is an installation of the U.s. Army's Materiel Development and Readiness Command (DARCOM). As stewards of approximately 3,456 acres (1,435 hectares) of public lands at GRLC, the U.s. Army has responsibility for the Management of any cultural resources located there. Two sites are known to exist on GRLC, but local geomorphology and located there. Two sites are known to exist on GRLC, but local geomorphology and cultural history suggest that additional cultural resources are likely to be found in undisturbed portions of the GRLC. Those sites possessing physical integrity will have high research value. In compliance with Draft Army Regulation (AR 420.XX) and in consideration of future general disturbance activities, the following recommendations are made: (1) conduct a field survey of all undisturbed areas on the installation to identify unknown cultural resource locations, (2) evaluate and nominate known cultural properties for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), (3) take action to preserve properties eligible for inclusion in the NRHP. These recommendations, if implemented, together with historic architectural information would then serve as the basis for developing an installation Historic Preservation Plan.
