Yolo County Cannabis Land Use Ordinance Draft Environmental
Ascent Environmental Cultural Resources 3.5 CULTURAL RESOURCES This section analyzes and evaluates the potential impacts of the project on known and unknown cultural resources as a result of adoption and implementation of the proposed CLUO, including issuance of subsequent Cannabis Use Permits pursuant to the adopted CLUO. Cultural resources include districts, sites, buildings, structures, or objects generally older than 50 years and considered to be important to a culture, subculture, or community for scientific, traditional, religious, or other reasons. They include prehistoric resources, historic-era resources, and tribal cultural resources (the latter as defined by AB 52, Statutes of 2014, in PRC Section 21074). This section also analyzes archaeological, historical, and tribal cultural resources. Paleontological resources are discussed in Section 3.7, “Geology and Soils.” Archaeological resources are locations where human activity has measurably altered the earth or left deposits of prehistoric or historic-era physical remains (e.g., stone tools, bottles, former roads, house foundations). Historical (or architectural or built environment) resources include standing buildings (e.g., houses, barns, outbuildings, cabins), intact structures (e.g., dams, bridges, wells), or other remains of human’s alteration of the environment (e.g., foundation pads, remnants of rock walls). Tribal cultural resources were added as a distinct resource subject to review under CEQA, effective January 1, 2015, under AB 52. Tribal cultural resources are sites, features, places, cultural landscapes, sacred places, and objects with cultural value to a California Native American tribe that are either included or determined to be eligible for inclusion in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR) or local registers of historical resources. -

About Plumas County
ABOUT PLUMAS COUNTY The area we presently call Plumas County (and lands adjoining it) was originally the home of the Maidu Indian tribe. The region’s abundant supply of game, fish, berries and seeds provided subsistence for these indigenous residents for several thousand years prior to the western migration of settlers. In 1821 Spanish explorer Luis Arguello arrived along the lower portion of the region’s main watershed (probably near it’s confluence with the Sacramento River). Arguello is credited with naming the river El Rio de las Plumas (The Feather River) after seeing what he thought were feathers floating in the water. Historians believe, however, that Arguello did not ever set foot in what is now Plumas County. In the 1850’s rumors of a fabled “Gold Lake” in the northeastern Sierras began circulating among the miners who had poured into California following the discovery of gold at Sutter’s mill. The upper reaches of the Feather River watershed were soon swarmed over by gold seekers who quickly displaced native Maidu residents in their quest for riches. Along with the miners came other settlers including a large Chinese population that remained in the region until the early 1900s. One of the early gold seekers, James Beckwourth, discovered the lowest pass through the Sierras (north of Reno, Nevada) at a point that now bears the name, Beckwourth Pass. The pass was opened to wagon travel via a toll road in 1851. More hospitable (due to its lower elevation) than the infamous Donner Pass, it made westward travel for new settlers safer and easier. -
Cultural, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources
Chapter 7—Cultural, Paleontological, and Tribal Cultural Resources 7.1 Introduction This chapter describes the existing conditions (environmental and regulatory) and assesses the potential cultural, paleontological, and tribal resources impacts of the 2020 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (proposed MTP/SCS). Where necessary and feasible, mitigation measures are identified to reduce these impacts. The information presented in this chapter is based on review of existing and available information and is regional in scope. Data, analysis, and findings provided in this chapter were considered and prepared at a programmatic level. For consistency with the 2016 MTP/SCS EIR, paleontological resources are addressed in this chapter even though these resources are grouped with geology and soils in Appendix G of the CEQA Guidelines (SACOG 2016). Impacts to unique geologic features are addressed in Chapter 9 – Geology, Soils, Seismicity, and Mineral Resources. Cultural resources include archaeological sites or districts of prehistoric or historic origin, built environment resources older than 50 years (e.g., historic buildings, structures, features, objects, districts, and landscapes), and traditional or ethnographic resources, including tribal cultural resources, which are a separate category of cultural resources under CEQA. Paleontological resources include mineralized, partially mineralized, or unmineralized bones and teeth, soft tissues, shells, wood, leaf impressions, footprints, burrows, and microscopic remains that are more than 5,000 years old and occur mainly in Pleistocene or older sedimentary rock units. In response to the Notice of Preparation (NOP), SACOG received comments related to cultural and tribal cultural resources from the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and United Auburn Indian Community of the Auburn Rancheria. -

Like the rest of the nation, urban renewal took center stage as a response to the spread of blight in cities. This thesis project explores the work of the Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency, particularly in the second half of the twentieth-century. The work undertaken by the agency, reflects the city’s demand in preserving and redeveloping their West End and the downtown district. -

Western Winter " Railroading HALF a WORLD
April 1986 No. 269 Western Winter " Railroading HALF A WORLD ... HALF A CENTURY Pennsylvania's anthracite coal country and Mainland China have little in common ... and a lot.Yesterday lived the third-rail Lackawanna & Wyoming Valley Railroad- a remarkable Keystone State interurban. Today, China is building new railroads, emphasizing both electrification and new steam power. Now, Interurban Press and Trans-Anglo Books take you trackside to see how it was, is-and will be. THE LAUREL LINE was an interurban with a difference. It was at once an electrified, heavy-duty coal-hauling railroad and an important passenger carrier linking Scranton and Wilkes-Barre. It lasted well into the 1950s, but was seldom prosperous. It never modernized, but its heavy cars were classics. Its management was reactionary but resourceful, and its passengers complained-but stayed loyal almost to the end. Authors Muncie and Henwood really did their homework on the L&WV, and the result is a definitive history, rich in the telling and complete to the last detail. And there's a wealth of rare photos spanning the Laurel Line's entire history from construction to dismemberment. THE LAUREL LINE-An Anthracite Region Railway By JAMES N.J. HENWOOD and JOHN G. MUNCIE 208 pages, 247 illus., maps, rosters, 8'hx11" hardbound with color jacket painting. ISBN 0-916374-72-6.

Her railways are surprisingly like ours; her ubiquitous ribbed-metal passenger cars could have come right off the Milwaukee Road!
