The research and evaluation is too preliminary for an accurate assessment, but each property on the table has some quality that makes further investigation compelling. Certain factors may make some untenable candidates for NHL designation, but, at this writing, each is worth further investigation. Properties found to be ineligible for NHL designation may be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. This table represents a sampling of properties that are possibly eligible; a comprehensive inventory was beyond the scope of this project.

  • Cultural, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources
    Chapter 7—Cultural, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources 7.1 Introduction This chapter describes the existing conditions (environmental and regulatory) and assesses the potential cultural, paleontological, and tribal resources impacts of the 2020 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (proposed MTP/SCS). Where necessary and feasible, mitigation measures are identified to reduce these impacts. The information presented in this chapter is based on review of existing and available information and is regional in scope. Data, analysis, and findings provided in this chapter were considered and prepared at a programmatic level. For consistency with the 2016 MTP/SCS EIR, paleontological resources are addressed in this chapter even though these resources are grouped with geology and soils in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines (SACOG 2016). Impacts to unique geologic features are addressed in Chapter 9 – Geology, Soils, Seismicity, and Mineral Resources. Cultural resources include archaeological sites or districts of prehistoric or historic origin, built environment resources older than 50 years (e.g., historic buildings, structures, features, objects, districts, and landscapes), and traditional or ethnographic resources, including tribal cultural resources, which are a separate category of cultural resources under CEQA. Paleontological resources include mineralized, partially mineralized, or unmineralized bones and teeth, soft tissues, shells, wood, leaf impressions, footprints, burrows, and microscopic remains that are more than 5,000 years old and occur mainly in Pleistocene or older sedimentary rock units. In response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP), SACOG received comments related to cultural and tribal cultural resources from the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and United Auburn Indian Community of the Auburn Rancheria.

  • Chapter 17 Cultural Resources
    Chapter 17 Cultural Resources Native Americans initiated California’s rich cultural heritage many generations before Europeans settled in the area. A third of all Native Americans within current U.S. boundaries lived in California. In the late 1600s, California’s Hispanic forefathers began to build missions that attracted an influx of people from Europe, Africa, and many other countries. The 1849 Gold Rush initiated a significant migration of people from Africa, Chile, Mexico, China, France, England, Germany, Ireland, Australia, Hawaii, Philippines, and elsewhere (Starr 2000). Preserving the culture and history of our nation’s past are the goals of regulations that include the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), Antiquities Act of 1906, Archeological Resource Protection Act of 1979, and Historic Sites Act of 1935. The NHPA regulations (36CFR800) require that Federal agencies seek information, as appropriate, from the State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO), the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation, Indian tribes, and other individuals and organizations likely to have knowledge of, or concerns with, historic properties in the area of potential effect. These organizations and individuals are integral in identifying issues related to the Program’s potential effects on historic properties. Similar State regulations1 protect archeological, paleontological, and historical sites and specifically provide for identification and protection of traditional Native American gathering and ceremonial sites on State land. Cultural resources defined within the framework of these regulations include archeological sites, historic sites, and traditional cultural properties associated with the values of Native Americans and other cultural groups. While studying cultural resources provides insight into the adaptation of early people and reveals important information, actions that physically disturb a site, alter its setting, or introduce elements out of character with the site may constitute an adverse effect.
