Although the proposed project could have a significant adverse effect on the environment, there will not be a significant adverse effect in this case because the project has incorporated specific provisions to reduce impacts to a less than significant level and/or the mitigation measures described herein have been added to the project. A Mitigated Negative Declaration has thus been prepared. The environmental documents, which constitute the Initial Study and provide the basis and reasons for this determination are attached and/or referenced herein and are hereby made a part of this document.

The document may rely on previous environmental documents (see Section D) and site-specific studies (see Section J) prepared to address in detail the effects or impacts associated with the project. This document has been prepared to satisfy the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) (Public Resources Code, Section 21000 et seq.) and the State CEQA Guidelines (14 CCR 15000 et seq.). CEQA requires that all state and local government agencies consider the environmental consequences of projects over which they have discretionary authority before acting on those projects. The Initial Study is a public document used by the decision-making lead agency to determine whether a project may have a significant effect on the environment. If the lead agency finds substantial evidence that any aspect of the project, either individually or cumulatively, may have a significant effect on the environment, regardless of whether the overall effect of the project is adverse or beneficial, the lead agency is required to prepare an Environmental Impact Report (EIR), use a previously-prepared EIR and supplement that EIR, or prepare a Subsequent EIR to analyze the project at hand. If the agency finds no substantial evidence that the project or any of its aspects may cause a significant effect on the environment, a Negative Declaration shall be prepared. If in the course of analysis, the agency recognizes that the project may have a significant impact on the environment, but that by incorporating specific mitigation measures the impact will be reduced to a less than significant effect, a Mitigated Negative Declaration shall be prepared. Project Title: Gladding Eternal Preserve Project # PLN17-00420 Entitlement(s): Conditional Use Permit Site Area: 160.3 acres APN: 020-142-001-000 Location: Southeast Corner of Gladding Road and Fleming Road, Rural Lincoln, Placer County A. BACKGROUND: The project proposes a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow construction of Gladding Eternal Preserve, a green burial cemetery, on 160.3 acres of land located at the southeast corner of Gladding and Fleming roads in rural Lincoln, Placer County (see Figure 1). The site, APN 020-142-001-000, is located within the Placer County General Plan area and is currently undeveloped. The Land Use Designation of the proposed project site is Agriculture/Timberland 20 Ac. Min. parcel size and is zoned F-B-X-AO 20 AC Min (Farm, minimum Building Site of 20 acres, combining Airport Overflight). Project Description: The project proposes a Conditional Use Permit to construct and operate a green burial cemetery, Gladding Eternal Preserve, on an undeveloped 160.3-acre site in Rural Lincoln, Placer County. Approximately 61.3 acres of the site would be used for interments and would accommodate approximately 10,000 to 15,000 graves and approximately 4,000 plots for cremains upon completion.

    19—43 Acta Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Archaeologica 35(2020) https://doi.org/10.18778/0208-6034.35.02 Harold Mytum https://orcid.org/0000-0002-0577-2064 Burial Crypts and Vaults in Britain and Ireland: a Biographical Approach Various types of burial chamber in Britain belonging to the period from the Ref- ormation until the 19th century have long been investigated archaeologically, but their frequency was only appreciated with the extensive investigation of St. Au- gustine the Less, Bristol, for which unfortunately there is still only an interim report (Boore 1986). The initial classification of both coffins and burial spaces was produced by Julian Litten (1985), and the variability in coffin design was greatly expanded by the investigation of the communal crypt at Christ Church Spital- fields, London (hereafter Spitalfields) during 1984–1986 (Reeve, Adams 1993). The original classification and dating sequence for burial structures proposed by Litten (1985: 10) is still valid, and it is set out in Table 1. Mainly concentrating on elite burial spaces, Litten defined four categories of burial space in 1999: large dynastic vault, family vault, brick grave and extensive private and public vaults (Litten 1999: 115). This study defines the range of types that are most frequently encountered and the form of the evidence normally surviving in these burial spaces, building on these pioneering studies. This study considers for the first time the biography of the coffin, and of the various types of burial spaces, both in terms of successive interment and some of the subsequent taphonomic processes that subsequently affect the location of the coffins within these burial spaces.

No part of this work covered by the copyright hereon may be reproduced or used in any form or by any means graphic, electronic, or mechanical, including photocopying, recording, taping, Web distribution or information storage retrieval systems without the written permission of the publisher. Summary Told in the first person by an Italian aristocrat, “The Cask of Amontillado” engages the reader by making him or her a confidant to Montresor’s macabre tale of revenge. The victim is Fortunato, who, the narrator claims, gave him a thousand injuries that he endured patiently, but when Fortunato dared insult him, he vowed revenge. It must be a perfect revenge, one in which Fortunato will know fully what is happening to him and in which Montresor will be forever undetected. To accomplish it, Montresor waits until carnival season, a time of “supreme madness,” when Fortunato, already half-drunk and costumed as a jester, is particularly vulnerable. Montresor then informs him that he has purchased a pipe of Amontillado wine but is not sure he has gotten the genuine article. He should, he says, have consulted Fortunato, who prides himself on being an expert on wine, adding that because Fortunato is engaged, he will go instead to Luchesi. Knowing his victim’s vanity, Montresor baits him by saying that some fools argue that Luchesi’s taste is as fine as Fortunato’s. The latter is hooked, and Montresor conducts him to his empty palazzo and leads him down into the family catacombs, all the while plying him with drink.

  • “To Lie in Yonder Tomb”: the Tomb and Burial of Joseph Smith
    Joseph D. Johnstun: The Tomb and Burial of Joseph Smith 163 “To Lie in Yonder Tomb”: The Tomb and Burial of Joseph Smith Joseph D. Johnstun I have said, Father, I desire to die here among the Saints. But if this is not Thy will, and I go hence and die, wilt thou find some kind friend to bring my body back, and gather my friends who have fallen in foreign lands, and bring them up hither, that we may all lie together. I will tell you what I want. If tomorrow I shall be called to lie in yonder tomb, in the morning of the resurrection let me strike hands with my father, and cry, “My father,” and he will say, “My son, my son,” as soon as the rock rends and before we come out of our graves.1 (Joseph Smith) “The Tomb of Joseph, a Descendant of Jacob” One of Joseph Smith’s greatest desires was a proper resting place for his body once he died. He said on the occasion of the funeral of Lorenzo Barnes, “It has always been considered a great calamity not to obtain an honorable burial: and one of the greatest curses the ancient prophets could put on any man, was that he should go without a burial.”2 The nineteenth century was a time of high mortality rates, and the loss of loved ones and friends for Joseph Smith dominated much of his thought during the last few years of his life. His close associate, Benjamin F. Johnson, noted five songs that were among the Prophet’s favorites.3 All five had the theme of mortality.
