Boyer and Steven A. Lakatos Contributions by Nancy J. Akins Jeffrey L. Boyer Steven A. Lakatos Pamela McBride James L. Moore Mollie S. Toll C. Dean Wilson Submitted by Timothy D. Maxwell Principal Investigator ARCHAEOLOGY NOTES 265 SANTA FE 2000 NEW MEXICO ADMINISTRATIVE SUMMARY Between September 21 and October 29, 1999, the Office of Archaeological Studies (OAS), Museum of New Mexico, conducted test excavations at archaeological sites LA 388, LA 389, LA 391, LA 835, and LA 3119. These investigations were undertaken at the request of the New Mexico State Highway and Transportation Department (NMSHTD) in conjunction with proposed highway improvements and construction along U.S. 84/285 between Santa Fe and Pojoaque, Santa Fe County, New Mexico. Portions of these five previously identified sites extended into the proposed project limits and required evaluation beyond the archaeological survey level of investigation. Prior to field investigations, landowner permission agreements, permits from state and federal agencies, and underground utility locations were obtained. In addition, proposed and existing rights- of-way limits at each site location were identified and staked. Archaeological testing investigations were conducted within existing or proposed rights-of-way. Archaeological testing identified intact surface and subsurface remains within existing and proposed project limits at each site. Additional data recovery investigations are recommended at sites LA 388, LA 389, LA 391, LA 835, and LA 3119.

  • From the Desk of the Swansea Shell Fish Warden WHAT YOU NEED to KNOW 2014 Season PLEASE READ
    From the Desk of the Swansea Shell Fish Warden WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW 2014 Season PLEASE READ Another year has gone by and despite another wet season, and a few violations, we have continued to see a prosperous shell fishing program for both commercial and recreational shell fishers in the Town of Swansea. We hope to continue to assist you in any way possible to make your future time on and in the water a safe one. The following notice is a re-issue (with some changes) that was passed out over the last several years. Please take the 5 minutes it requires to go over and read the listed information I have put together for you. It is imperative that EVERYONE reads, understands and follows ALL of the rules and regulations set forth for shell fishing in Swansea waters. With that said, I would request that EVERYONE who will be participating in shell fishing read on with great comprehension the following information I feel you must keep in mind while out there digging away. I realize many of the items below are in the rules and regulations but I just want to re-emphasize those most important and some new “suggestions” that may help you out. There are new open areas for shell fishing in the Cole and Lees Rivers that have specific closure dates during the spring and summer months and I have also included new limitations on razor clams, oysters and scallops which have been showing up few and far between in our waters. 1. The shellfish officers WILL NOT TOLERATE the throwing back of legal sized quahogs to change the size composition of your catch.

We are environmental counsel to USGen New England, Inc. ("USGenNE") which received the Department's RAO Screening Review dated May 12, 2004. A copy of that document is enclosed for your convenience. The RAO Screening Review stated that "the AUL recorded for your site is not referenced in subsequent property conveyance instruments, as required by the MCP. The property was granted to USGen New England by New England Power. The sale is recorded at the Bristol County Registry of Deeds on September 9, 1998. ... The deed into the new owner bore no reference, either marginally or by incorporation, to the AUL." USGenNE has reviewed the deed from New England Power Company ("NEP") to USGenNE and determined that it did properly reference the AUL. Specifically, the "Deed and Assignment of Lease" pursuant to which NEP transferred Brayton Point Station to USGenNE ("Deed") contained a paragraph stating as follows: "The granted. premises are conveyed and assigned subject to and together with the benefit of all' matters appearing of record at said Registry of Deeds, including without limitation a notice of activity and use limitation recorded with said Registry of Deeds on July 25, 15/119411.1 Seaport World Trade Center West / 155 Seaport Blvd.
