Section 106 Consultation Jan 28, 2009 Ms. Rebecca Ossa State Historic Preservation Office 100N. Stewart Street Carson City, Nevada 89701 RE: Section 106 Consultation for proposed Replacement Airport Traffic Control Tower, Administrative Base Building and Parking Structure Construction at McCarran International Airport, Las Vegas, Nevada Dear Ms. Ossa: This letter is in response to your request of October 8, 2008 for additional items in regard to the FAA’s Section 106 consultation packet sent to your office on September 4, 2008. Thank you for your explanation of the additional items you are requesting during our phone conversation on January 13, 2009. I have gathered together some data that hopefully will answer your questions. For the purposes of preliminary analysis, I have assumed a similar indirect APE size to that used by the FCC for a tower height of 200 to 400 feet. This equates to a circular area with a radius of .75 miles (or 1131 acres). I overlaid this circle on a map and was able to eliminate approximately 270 degrees of that circle because the airport property itself takes up most of that land. In my attached satellite and assessor’s map view you will see the remaining 282 acre arc. Since I do not have on-site personnel to take photos, I used Google "Street View" to generate the enclosed pictures. These show a sampling of the neighborhood architecture and existing setting characteristics. Attached is a report generated by the Clark County Assessor’s office that lists all of the parcel numbers within the indirect effects APE and their corresponding construction dates. This data revealed some homes built in 1962 and 1963 facing the proposed construction site located about .4 miles away in a subdivision called “Paradise Valleys Southgate”. Construction of the ATCT is expected to start in 2011 so these homes would be 49 and 48 years old, respectively, at that time. In performing this analysis we found the existing environmental characteristics to include airport surrounds (including two towers) as well as casinos and hotels. According to the Terminal 3 Environmental Assessment, the setting will change to include the green space buffer described below, a six story parking facility, elevated roadways and the Terminal 3 building (please see attached Terminal 3 facilities rendering). This will all be built between the proposed ATCT and the neighborhoods north of Russell Road. The addition of a new ATCT to this viewshed would likely pose little to no effect to the existing or future landscape view. Please also note that 326 homes between Swenson and Surrey Streets north of Russell Road to approximately Rawhide Street were demolished in conjunction with the current construction of Terminal 3 at McCarran Airport. These homes were constructed between 1963 and 2002. Effects of the acquisition of these properties and their inhabitants’ relocation were evaluated in the 2005 Supplemental Environmental Assessment for the Construction of Terminal 3 at McCarran Airport. A 40 acre landscape buffer is planned to be built as part of the Terminal 3 project on part of the property formerly occupied by these homes. The buffer will be located between Maryland Parkway and Swenson Street north of Russell Road, just south of the homes in the Paradise Valleys Southgate subdivision mentioned above. This green space buffer will most likely enhance the aesthetic 2 surroundings of these homes and may offer some screening of their view of the airport (please see attached rendering). In response to your other questions regarding the proposed ATCT, the existing ATCT at McCarran is 185 feet tall and the maximum height for the proposed base building and parking structure would be about 50 feet (4 stories). As I mentioned during our phone conversation, the FAA does not have planning documents for the proposed project so design drawings and architectural renderings of the tower are not available at this time. I hope this information assists you with the evaluation of the effects of FAA’s proposed action to historic properties. Please feel free to contact me if you wish to discuss anything.

  • The Road to Iconicity in the Pa- Leoart of the American West
    ekkehart malotkI The Road to Iconicity in the Pa- leoart of the American West Introduction Throughout the world, all paleoart traditions considered to be the earliest uniformly display a remarkable noniconicity, whether they occur as port- able objects or in the context of rock art. This uniformity is believed to be attributable not to cultural difusion but to an evolved, predisposing neuro- biology shared by all human beings. This panglobal similarity of the most basic phosphene-like motif repertoires also holds for the Pleistocene-Hol- ocene transition period in the American West. From Canada to Northwest Mexico and from Texas to the Paciic Coast, canyon walls, boulder faces and rock shelters served as canvases for the arriving Paleoamericans and their descendants. Their non-igurative, geocentric marking systems, summar- ily labeled here Western Archaic Tradition (Fig. 1), lasted for thousands of years until in very limited areas full-blown iconicity in the form of distinct biocentric styles set in around the Middle Holocene (Fig. 2). Many regions, however, remained committed to the graphic Western Archaic Tradition mode until A. D. 600 or later or never developed representational motifs. Preceding the onset of imagery featuring anthropomorphs and zoomorphs, a seemingly restricted vocabulary of igurative designs –, primarily animal and bird tracks as well as hand- and footprints – that can be regarded as proto-iconic forerunners along the developmental path of rock art, observ- able in the American West. 171171 ekkehart malotkI Fig. 1: Typical WAT petroglyphs from a site north of St. George, Utah (photograph E.

Biographical History Harold Atwood Widdison was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on September 10, 1935 to Harold Edward and Margaret Lavona (née Atwood) Widdison. His only sibling, sister Joan Lavona, was born in 1940. The family moved to Helena, Montana when Widdison was 12, where he graduated from high school in 1953. He then served a two year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In 1956 Widdison entered Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, graduating with a BS in sociology in 1959 and an MS in business in 1961. He was employed by the Atomic Energy Commission in Washington DC before returning to graduate school, earning his PhD in medical sociology and statistics from Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio in 1970. Dr. Widdison was a faculty member in the Sociology Department at Northern Arizona University from 1972 until his retirement in 2003. His research foci included research methods, medical sociology, complex organization, and death and dying. His interest in the latter led him to develop one of the first courses on death, grief, and bereavement, and helped establish such courses in the field on a national scale.
