An Intensive Cultural Resources Survey and Assessment of Proposed Levee Modifications at the Peters Levee, Lee Country, Arkansas

Abstract

This project consists of a cultural resources survey and assessment of approximately 1,175 acres of land which will be affected by proposed levee modification and improvement in Lee County, Arkansas. During the course of the survey four historic sites and one prehistoric site were noted within the area to be impacted. Based on the evaluation of material examined and consideration of National Register criteria for assessing significance, these cultural resources are not of local, regional, or national significance. An additional previously recorded site (3Le3) falls within the project right-of-way. Based on intensive surface and subsurface examination of the site and evaluation of previously published material, it is recommended that project plans be altered to avoid the Barrett Site (3Le3) and its immediate surroundings
