Archaeological investigations will be initiated following receipt of Ml SHPO's approval of the application. C. This archaeological investigation will consist of the following: 1. Initially, the archaeological investigation will begin with pre-field research consisting of analyzing Light Detection and Ranging ("LiDAR") data against historical maps and aerial photos to identify anomalies that may represent mound/earthworks or burial sites and comparing that data with the 2012 and 2016 CMU investigations. 2. A phase I investigation of the Category B and Category C: a. In areas with substantial exposed ground visibility (greater than 25%), the team will engage in a controlled surface survey at a 5 m interval. b. In areas with less surface visibility (less than 25%) shovel testing will occur. Spacing between shovel tests and shovel test transects will not exceed 15 m. Shovel testing will not be conducted on steep slopes, in wetlands, or in areas of obvious disturbances ( e.g., borrow pits, two-track roads - areas within which the A horizon and upper B horizon soils have been removed or mixed with post-1950s refuse and/or fill materials). The disturbed areas as described in the previous sentence will, however, be evaluated by excavating shovel tests at a 15-m interval to verify and describe the disturbance. The field conditions, methods, and presence of disturbance will be documented on project maps. (i) Shovel tests will be approximately 35 cm to 50 cm in diameter and.screened through ¼ inch hardware cloth. Shovel testing will occur in areas with surface visibility less than 25%, with the exception of site 20IB50 and area surrounding, due to cultural sensitivity....
