Department of Transportation Act. Section 4(f) and Related Lands). Potential airport related noise impacts were evaluated. The evaluation revealed that the aircraft noise would not have an adverse effect (see Appendix K – Noise). Wapsi Valley Archaeology Inc. conducted a view shed impact study and concluded that the proposed action would have no adverse visual impact to the Xxxxx Cemetery (see Section 5.15 – Visual Effects and Appendix H). 1795 220th Street Wapsi Valley Archaeology Inc. recommended that a Phase I intensive level historic architectural evaluation of the house and earth cellar be undertaken to determine National Register eligibility. The property at 0000 000xx Xxxxxx may retain sufficient integrity to meet criteria for listing under Criterion C. Criterion C is defined as properties that embody the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction that possess high artistic value, or that represents a significant and distinguishable entity whose components may lack individual distinction. Wapsi Valley Archaeology Inc. concluded that the residence and earth cellar will be adversely impacted by the proposed airport development. To mitigate the adverse effects should the property be found to be eligible, Wapsi Valley Archeology suggested that a National Register Multiple Property Documentation Form be prepared for earth contact cellars in Iowa. The Section 106 process has been completed for 16 of the 28 parcels proposed for acquisition.
