An Archeological Overview and Management Plan for the Harry Diamond Laboratories, Adelphi, Maryland.
Abstract
This document summarizes data relating to the area's environmental history; previous archeological surveys; presently identifiable archeological resources; known artifact, ecofact, and/or documentary collections relating to archeological resources; potentially identifiable but not presently recorded archeological resources; significant archeological resources; ongoing and planned activities that could affect archeological resources; locational data of known archeological resources. One historical archeological site is known to exist at the Harry Diamond Laboratories - Adelphi, Maryland. This is a mill race associated with Mrs. Harper's Woolen Factory. This site is not considered significant. In addition, prehistoric sites may exist in undisturbed areas of the facility, though these are not likely to be significant. Recommended studies include: 1) surveying undisturbed areas of the facility for archeological resources; 2) revising facility publications and orientation procedures to include mention of DARCOM's historic preservation responsibilities; and 3) establishing an on-call relationship with an entity capable of delivering professional archeological consulting services to deal with the unanticipated discovery of archeological remains.
