Phase I Cultural Resource Survey: Big Escambia Creek Restoration Project, Escambia County, Florida, and Escambia County, Alabama

Abstract

Under contract with the US Army Corp of Engineers, Mobile District, Brockington and Associates, Inc., performed Phase I cultural resources survey within the proposed areas of the Big Escambia Creek Restoration Project, Escambia County, Florida, and Escambia County, Alabama. Background research, fieldwork (archaeological resources survey and site evaluation), laboratory analysis, and report production were completed in compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and with regulations implementing this legislation (36 CFR Part 800: Protection of Historic Properties). Our field investigations were conducted between 2 and 6 September 2002. Background research focused on documenting previously recorded significant or potentially significant cultural resources (archaeological resources considered potentially eligible, eligible, or listed on the National Register of Historic Places). Field investigations focused on identifying and evaluating all archaeological resources within the approximately 74-acre project tracts. We recorded and evaluated two archaeological sites 1 ES92 and 1 ES93 during our field investigations. Both sites are historic/modern refuse dumps and are located adjacent to an active railroad. Both areas are located in highly disturbed areas and are not recommended eligible for the National Register of Historic Places and no further archaeological investigations should be required at this location. Cultural resource clearance is recommended.
