Herndon, RPA Principal Investigator April 10, 2007 Lead Agency: Federal Highway Administration Kentucky Transportation Cabinet Item Number 5-118 Statewide Contract No. M-04237412, Letter Agreement No. 36-WLR and Statewide Contract No. M-06171826, Letter Agreement 3-WLR ABSTRACT Cultural Resource Analysts, Inc., personnel completed the archaeological monitoring of geotechnical borings for the Kennedy Bridge Interchange Area of the Louisville Southern Indiana Ohio River Bridges project (Item No. 5-118.00) between March 21 and July 12, 2006 in Jefferson County, Kentucky. This work was conducted at the request of the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet. The monitoring was conducted prior to proposed road improvements to Interstate 64, Interstate 65, Interstate 71, and a few nearby secondary roads. Methods consisted of the monitoring of augers that were being used by engineers to collect soil data within the project footprint. Sanborn maps were also consulted to identify the location of historic deposits within the project footprint. Within the project right-of-way, which encompassed approximately 133 ha (329 acres), 57 bore holes were monitored for the presence or absence of archaeological deposits. Each of the bore holes was considered to be representative of subsurface deposits within that parcel of the right-of-way, which varied in area from about 1–15 acres. Areas of high archaeological potential were noted in 23 bore holes; 34 bore holes revealed areas of low archaeological potential, and approximately 2.1 ha (5.2 acres) of area were considered too hazardous to investigate fully. The remaining areas were not assessed during monitoring because pre-field research (previous geomorphic studies and historic maps) suggested that these areas were not as likely to contain intact archaeological deposits. More specifically, 34 of the bore holes revealed that their surrounding areas have a low potential to contain intact archaeological deposits, historic and/or prehistoric, and no further work is recommended in these areas. Eleven of the bore holes revealed areas with a high potential to contain both prehistoric and historic archaeological sites. In addition, ten of the bore holes revealed areas with a high potential to contain only intact historic deposits and two of the bore holes revealed areas with a high potential to contain just intact prehistoric deposits. Most of the historic deposits appear to relate either to the late 1800s or the early 1900s, although earlier and later materials were also recovered. Diagnostic artifacts were not recovered from the prehistoric deposits, so dates for these deposits are not available. i ii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT......................................................................................................................................................................i LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................................................................iii LIST OF TABLES ..........................................................................................................................................................iv CHAPTER 1.

Therefore, in recent years several efforts have been dedicated to the development of fast, sensitive, and selective sensors for the detection of heavy metal ions. In particular, fluorescent sensors have gained in popularity due to their interesting features, such as high specificity, sensitivity, and reversibility. Thus, this review is devoted to the recent advances in fluorescent sensors for the monitoring of these contaminants, and special focus is placed on those devices based on fluorescent aptasensors, quantum dots, and organic dyes. Keywords: heavy metal ions; fluorescent sensors; fluorescent aptasensors; quantum dots; organic dyes 1. Introduction Monitoring the presence of contaminants in water is of general interest in order to ensure the quality of surface, ground, and drinking water [1,2]. Among the several water pollutants, such as plastic or waste [3], chemical fertilizers or pesticides [4], and pathogens [5], heavy metal ions are known for their high toxicity [6].

    University of Nevada, Reno Paleoindian Occupations in the Great Basin: A Comparative Study of Lithic Technological Organization, Mobility, and Landscape Use from Jakes Valley, Nevada A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Anthropology By Mark B. Estes Dr. Gary Haynes/Thesis Advisor May, 2009 Copyright by Mark B. Estes 2009 All Rights Reserved THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the thesis prepared under our supervision by MARK B. ESTES entitled Paleoindian Occupations In The Great Basin: A Comparative Study Of Lithic Technological Organization, Mobility, And Landscape Use From Jakes Valley, Nevada be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Gary Haynes, Ph.D., Advisor Michael R. Bever, Ph.D., Committee Member Ted Goebel, Ph.D., Committee Member P. Kyle House, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School May, 2009 i Abstract Previous research on Paleoindian occupations in the Great Basin has provided many more questions than answers. Central to understanding this early period is the relationship between its Western Fluted and Western Stemmed Tradition occupants. Little is known of the temporal, cultural, and technological behaviors of Western Fluted peoples, while the Western Stemmed Tradition inhabitants are only slightly better understood. This thesis presents the results of intensive technological studies that focused on determining raw material provisioning strategies, lithic conveyance zones, and landscape use to identify mobility and settlement patterns. Lithic assemblages from 19 Paleoindian era occupations, encompassing several environmental zones within Jakes Valley in eastern Nevada, provide data on the technological organization and movement patterns of early humans in the Great Basin, and reveal previously unknown behaviors that help differentiate the early hunter-gatherer groups who made Fluted and Stemmed projectile points.
