  • Bibliography of North Carolina Underwater Archaeology
    i BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH CAROLINA UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY Compiled by Barbara Lynn Brooks, Ann M. Merriman, Madeline P. Spencer, and Mark Wilde-Ramsing Underwater Archaeology Branch North Carolina Division of Archives and History April 2009 ii FOREWARD In the forty-five years since the salvage of the Modern Greece, an event that marks the beginning of underwater archaeology in North Carolina, there has been a steady growth in efforts to document the state’s maritime history through underwater research. Nearly two dozen professionals and technicians are now employed at the North Carolina Underwater Archaeology Branch (N.C. UAB), the North Carolina Maritime Museum (NCMM), the Wilmington District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), and East Carolina University’s (ECU) Program in Maritime Studies. Several North Carolina companies are currently involved in conducting underwater archaeological surveys, site assessments, and excavations for environmental review purposes and a number of individuals and groups are conducting ship search and recovery operations under the UAB permit system. The results of these activities can be found in the pages that follow. They contain report references for all projects involving the location and documentation of physical remains pertaining to cultural activities within North Carolina waters. Each reference is organized by the location within which the reported investigation took place. The Bibliography is divided into two geographical sections: Region and Body of Water. The Region section encompasses studies that are non-specific and cover broad areas or areas lying outside the state's three-mile limit, for example Cape Hatteras Area. The Body of Water section contains references organized by defined geographic areas.

GPS Location: -79.904635, 35.636377 Among the vast forest, which cloaks the ridges and valleys of the ancient Uwharrie Mountains in central North Carolina, lies the quivering Uwharrie Trail. The trail perforates The Uwharrie National Forest, one of the smallest, youngest and most fragmented of our national forests. The Uwharrie National Forest was originally Bought in the 1930s during the Great Depression and was designated as part of the National Forest System By John F. Kennedy in 1961. Joe Moffitt, the son of a local trapper, was the original trailBlazer of the Uwharrie Trail. Forty years ago Joe envisioned a path through the Uwharries that would be a source for kids to learn about the woods. Although the property exchanged Between puBlic and private land, Joe was able to Begin Building the trail through his community connections. Under his leadership, local Boy Scout troops and volunteers Blazed the Uwharrie Trail until it was 53 miles long. Many sections of the original trail that were closed as private properties were sold or left to heirs who moved. But in recent years, conservation partners including The Land Trust for Central North Carolina, the U.S. Forest Service, the N.C. Zoo, and the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission have helped restore many of these lost sections. Thanks to more than 15 years of conservation work, the Uwharrie Trail is now closer than ever to being reconnected and can now be hiked in its 40-mile entirety.

    CATEGORICAL EXCLUSION ACTION CLASSIFICATION FORM STIP Project No. B-4794 W.B.S. No. 38564.1.1 Federal Project No. BRZ-1107(14) A. Project Description: The purpose of this project is to replace Randolph County Bridge No. 18 along SR 1107 (Lassiter Mill Road) over Betty McGees Creek. Bridge No. 18 is 76 feet long. The replacement structure will be a bridge approximately 94 feet long providing a minimum 27-foot, 10-inch clear deck width. The bridge will include two 10-foot lanes and 3-foot, 11-inch offsets. The bridge length is based on preliminary design information and is set by hydraulic requirements. The proposed roadway will be constructed at a similar grade to the existing bridge. The approach roadway will extend approximately 416 feet from the north end and approximately 565 feet from the south end of the new bridge. The approaches will be constructed to include a 20-foot pavement width providing two 10-foot lanes. Three-foot grass shoulders will be provided on each side of the roadway (6-foot shoulders where guardrail is included). The roadway will be designed as a Rural Local Road using Sub-regional Tier guidelines with a 55 mile per hour design speed. Traffic will be detoured off-site during construction (see Figure 1). The off-site detour is approximately 5.2 miles long and utilizes SR 1143 (High Pine Church Road), SR 1181 (New Hope Road), NC 49, and SR 1163 (Science Hill Road). The detour will result in approximately 5.6 minutes of additional travel time. B.

The river basin covers a diverse landscape from Blue Ridge Mountain headwaters to the expansive Charlotte metropolitan area, crossing much of the Piedmont region and including parts of the unusual geology and ecology in the sandy Uwharrie Mountains. Thirty-nine percent (39%) of all rivers and streams, and thirty-six percent (36%) of all lakes and reservoirs within the Yadkin River basin are listed as “impaired” by the NC Division of Water Quality (NC DWQ), meaning they fail to meet water quality standards established by the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) and the NC DWQ. The Yadkin River is also known for its outstanding resource waters, primarily found in the Uwharrie National Forest in Montgomery County and the headwater tributaries of Wilkes and Surry Counties.
