Arizona Antiquties Act Project Specific Permit 1999-121ps Tribal Consultation: When working on Tonto National Forest land the State Route 260 project works under the Plan for the Treatment and Disposition of Human Remains and Other Cultural Items from the Tonto National Forest pursuant to the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (Revised 2001). The Fort McDowell Indian Community, the Hopi Tribe, the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community, the San Carlos Apache Tribe, the Tonto Apache Tribe, the White Mountain Apache, the Yavapai-Prescott Tribe, and the Pueblo of Zuni were invited to participate, although they did not sign the Programmatic Agreement Among the United State Department of Agriculture Forest Service, The Federal Highway Administration, The Arizona Department of Transportation, The Arizona State Historic Preservation Officer, and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation Regarding the SR 260 Payson to Heber (Star Valley to West of Heber) Project. Project Description: Archaeological test excavations of nine sites and supplemental survey of additional right-of-way conducted in advance of highway realignment project in Doubtful Canyon section of the State Route 260 – Payson to Heber project Fieldwork dates and crew person-days (non-supervisory): 72 crew person-days were expended between 6 October and 29 October, 2009 Final Disposition of project artifacts, field notes, data, and records (include ASM Accession No. if applicable): Arizona State Museum. No accession number assigned. Location [Parcel description, city, county, state; legal description; land ownership] Land Ownership: Tonto National Forest land County: Gila County Description: Project is located between mileposts 269 and 272.5 of State Route 260 east of Payson in Township 11 N, Range 12 E, Sections 21, 22, 23, and 26 Area of Potential Effect (APE), definition and description: From right-of-way to right-of way of planned realignment of State Route 260, temporary construction easements, access roads, utility corridors, and areas of drainage modification. iv Compliance Summary Number of Surveyed Acres: 0.23 Number of Sites: 9 List of Register-Eligible Properties: AZ O:12:21/AR-03-12-04-1161 (ASM/TNF), AZ O:12:27/AR-03-12-04- 745 (ASM/TNF), AZ O:12:28/AR-03-12-04-746 (ASM/TNF), AZ O:12:33/AR-03-12-04-878, AZ O:12:115/ AR-03-12-04-265 (ASM/TNF), AZ O:12:116/AR-03-12-04-267 (ASM/TNF), AZ O:12:117/AR-03-12-04-1402 (ASM/TNF), AZ O:12:119/AR-03-12-04-1471 (ASM/TNF).

Six sites were considered to meet the National Register eligibility requirements. The research potential of three of the register-eligible sites was expended by the testing phase: O:12:27/04- 745 (ASM/TNF), O:12:115/04-265 (ASM/TNF), and O:12:116/04-267 (ASM/TNF). Three sites will require data recovery investigations: O:12:21/04-1161 (ASM/TNF), O:12:28/04-746 (ASM/TNF), and O:12:119/04- 1471 (ASM/TNF). One site, O:12:117/04-1402 (ASM/TNF), needs additional testing before an evaluation can be made. Two sites did not meet the eligibility requirementsfor inclusion in the National Register: O:12:120/04-1860 (ASM/TNF) and O:12:121/04-1861 (ASM/TNF). Recommendations: Additional testing is recommended at O:12:117/04-1402 (ASM/TNF), and data recovery excavations are recommended in the Apache roasting pit, Feature 1, at O:12:119/04-1471, which will be impacted by increased drainage run-off after highway realignment, and at the portions of O:12:21/04-1161 (ASM/TNF) and O:12:28/04-746 (ASM/TNF) within the ROW.

Apache and San Carlos Apache Indian Reservations Arizona Introduction During the past several years, the Bureau of Sport'Fisheries'and Wildlife, in cooperation with the Bureau of Indian Affairs, has-intensified its fishery managementi assistance to the Ft. Apache and San Carlos Indian Reservations. During this period many reports summarizing fishery management activities have been submitted. None, however, has dealt with the important Black and Salt Rivers or their fishery potential. This report summarizes the- results of preliminary fishery investigations on the Salt and Black Rivers, including fishery potentials, and Is directed to the Tribal organization and•agencies of the San Carlos and Ft.-Apache Indian Reservations. The Black and Salt Rivers of Arizona flow through some of the most- spectacular canyons of the Southwest. The Salt River Canyon crossing at Highway 60 is often referred to as.the second-Grand Canyon of Arizona, with vividly colored canyon walls rising vertically more than 3,000. feet. The Black River follows a major - - - rift through basalt rock that is often narrow and exceeds 26000 feet in depth in many places. Canyons, alternately widening and boxing, extending from alpine to upper sonorian life zones, are characteristic of the study area Stands of virgin . spruce and ponderosa pine lend beauty to the.

  • A Conceptual Hydrogeologic Model for Fossil Springs, Western
    A CONCEPTUAL HYDROGEOLOGIC MODEL FOR FOSSIL SPRINGS, WESTERN MOGOLLON RIM, ARIZONA: IMPLICATIONS FOR REGIONAL SPRINGS PROCESSES By L. Megan Green A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science in Geology Northern Arizona University May 2008 Approved: _________________________________ Abraham E. Springer, Ph.D., Chair _________________________________ Roderic A. Parnell, Jr., Ph.D. _________________________________ Paul J. Umhoefer, Ph.D. ABSTRACT A CONCEPTUAL HYDROGEOLOGIC MODEL FOR FOSSIL SPRINGS, WEST MOGOLLON MESA, ARIZONA: IMPLICATIONS FOR REGIONAL SPRINGS PROCESSES L. Megan Green Fossil Springs is the largest spring system discharging along the western Mogollon Rim in central Arizona and is a rare and important resource to the region. The purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of the source of groundwater discharging at Fossil Springs. This was accomplished by (1) constructing a 3-D digital hydrogeologic framework model from available data to depict the subsurface geology of the western Mogollon Rim region and (2) by compiling and interpreting regional structural and geophysical data for Arizona’s central Transition Zone. EarthVision, a 3-D GIS modeling software, was used to construct the framework model. Two end-member models were created; the first was a simple interpolation of the data and the second was a result of geologic interpretations. The second model shows a monocline trending along the Diamond Rim fault. Both models show Fossil Springs discharging at the intersection of the Diamond Rim fault and Fossil Springs fault, at the contact between the Redwall Limestone and Naco Formation. The second objective of this study was a compilation of regional data for Arizona’s central Transition Zone.
