Brackish water marsh lines the larger creek which enters Mattapamient Bay northeast of the site. Until recently, site 44JC308 encompassed a total of 31.1 acres consisting of old agricultural fields bordered on the northwestern, northern, and eastern sides by narrow woodlands. Most of the property had been plowed and planted in crops for many years, but the fields were left fallow beginning in the mid-1980s as plans for residential and recreational development of the In early 1992, in anticipation of potential impacts to the site from construction • of a golf course, a golf course club house, and additional recreational, residential, and support facilities, an archaeological treatment plan was formulated for the property. Portions of the site were subsequently disturbed by earth-moving activities. From late January through early April 1992, archaeological data recovery operations were carried out within a 2.75-acre section of the property was then significantly relandscaped for construction of the fairway and green of golf hole 18 and shoreline stabilization. In the southern section of the property , plowzone deposits were removed from lands lying below the 10 1 AMSL topographic contour for use as fill dirt elsewhere. A small area along the eastern edge of the property had previously been disturbed by construction of the tee for golf hole 1. Significa~t archaeological deposits still survive intact within a total of 20. 9 contiguous acres at site 44JC308 which comprise the nominated property. Included within this area is a 3.8-acre section where, under the terms of the archaeological treatment plan, archaeological deposits will be protected from future disturbance by an historic easement. In March 1992, the surface of the old plowzone within the easement zone was covered by a layer of filter fabric and approximately 2 1 of fill soil. Impacts within the easement zone, such as a golf cart path which currently crosses it, are prohibited from penetrating below the filter fabric. Adjoining of the easement zone is a second section of the consistin of 0.2 associated with two longhouse patterns survive intact below fill to create the rough of the golf hole.
