Please include considerations of a. the types of domestic, economic, and ritual use areas that are known for the Serrano, the Vanyume, the Chemehuevi, and other Native American groups that have associations with the project area, b. the material character of such use areas, and c. the patterns of such use areas across the local landscape, and the potential archaeological signature of such use areas. Response: In November, 2009 the Applicant provided the following response. In accordance with the response prepared, please see the report for the follow-up response to Data Request 102 provided behind this response as attachment CUL-1.
