The survey involved twenty-seven separate survey areas of proposed permanent and temporary easements and new construction areas surrounding the preferred alignment (previously surveyed, Richmond and Clay 1998). The total APE consisted of approximately 47 acres (19 hectares). Field work was conducted on April 26th, 27th, 28th, and May 3rd of 2016. The survey identified four previously unrecorded archaeological sites (15Wh236, 15Wh237, 15Wh238, 15Wh239) and two isolated finds (IF 1, IF 2). Site 15Wh236 is a medium density, unassigned prehistoric lithic scatter with a small, late nineteenth to mid-twentieth century residential component. There were no surface or subsurface features within the site. The full site extent has not been tested, but the known site area within the APE was determined to be ineligible for nomination to the National Register of Historical Places. No further archaeological work is recommended within the APE. Site 15Wh237 is a multi-component, low density plow zone scatter involving an unassigned prehistoric lithic scatter and a late nineteenth to late twentieth century residential farmstead component. There were no surface or subsurface features within the site. The full site extent has not been tested, but the known site area within the APE was determined to be ineligible for nomination to the National Register of Historical Places. No further archaeological work is recommended within the APE. Site 15Wh238 is a light density, unassigned prehistoric lithic scatter. There were no surface or subsurface features within the site. The full site extent exists within the APE and the site was determined to be ineligible for nomination to the National Register of Historical Places. No further archaeological work is recommended. Site 15Wh239 is an early to late twentieth century residential farmstead with an extant structure in ruins. The full site extent exists within the APE and the site was determined to be ineligible for nomination to the National Register of Historical Places. No further archaeological work is recommended. Also recorded were two prehistoric isolated finds (IF 1 and IF 2). No further work was recommended for any of these findings. i Table of Contents.docx Table of Contents Abstract ...................................................................................................................................................................................... i Table of Contents .................................................................................................................................................................. ii List of Figures........................................................................................................................................................................ vi List of Tables ......................................................................................................................................................................... ix Acknowledgements .............................................................................................................................................................. x 1.1 Project Sponsor and Regulatory Authority ................................................................................................. 1 1.2 Purpose and Scope of Work .............................................................................................................................. 1 1.3 Project Location and Description ................................................................................................................... 1 1.4 Area of Potential Effect (APE)........................................................................................................................... 1 Figure 1-1.

  • Topography Along the Virginia-Kentucky Border
    Preface: Topography along the Virginia-Kentucky border. It took a long time for the Appalachian Mountain range to attain its present appearance, but no one was counting. Outcrops found at the base of Pine Mountain are Devonian rock, dating back 400 million years. But the rocks picked off the ground around Lexington, Kentucky, are even older; this limestone is from the Cambrian period, about 600 million years old. It is the same type and age rock found near the bottom of the Grand Canyon in Colorado. Of course, a mountain range is not created in a year or two. It took them about 400 years to obtain their character, and the Appalachian range has a lot of character. Geologists tell us this range extends from Alabama into Canada, and separates the plains of the eastern seaboard from the low-lying valleys of the Ohio and Mississippi rivers. Some subdivide the Appalachians into the Piedmont Province, the Blue Ridge, the Valley and Ridge area, and the Appalachian plateau. We also learn that during the Paleozoic era, the site of this mountain range was nothing more than a shallow sea; but during this time, as sediments built up, and the bottom of the sea sank. The hinge line between the area sinking, and the area being uplifted seems to have shifted gradually westward. At the end of the Paleozoric era, the earth movement are said to have reversed, at which time the horizontal layers of the rock were uplifted and folded, and for the next 200 million years the land was eroded, which provided material to cover the surrounding areas, including the coastal plain.
