Previous survey. The HPT Staff compiles a list of previous surveys within the APE and related State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) or Tribal Historic Preservation Office (THPO) consultation. For projects that are within ADOT ROW, the HPT Portal is the best place to begin to research previous surveys. The Portal has search functions that can be utilized to find survey reports and associated consultation letters. Document searches can locate surveys on individual routes within identified milepost limits. There is also a GIS map layer that can also locate surveys within identified route and milepost limits. If a Portal search identifies adequate survey reports that cover the entire APE, it may not be necessary to check other sources for additional survey reports for the level of research needed to complete a PEDS and determine whether any PA stipulations are applicable. If a Portal search does not identify survey reports covering the entire project area, or if the project is an LPA project not on the ADOT system, the HPT Staff conducts an AZSITE search. For projects on federal or Tribal land, or for some LPA projects, the agency or Tribe should be contacted to make arrangements for a files search. As mentioned above, some Tribes and agencies will conduct the files search; there may or may not be a cost associated with such a search. Other agencies and Tribes may require the HPT Staff or a consultant to make a trip to their files to conduct the search. If a consultant is required to conduct a search because it requires a trip to Tribal or agency offices, or because the APE is too large and/or there are too many reports and cultural resources to be researched by the HPT Staff in a timely fashion, the HPT Staff indicates that a consultant is needed that on the PEDS. It is important to note that until the rest of the that until the research is completed, the rest of the consultant SOW cannot be fully defined as additional survey may also be needed. For large, complex projects where consultants are needed to gather background data, a Consultant Initiation Form (CIF) may be requested. If the APE, or a portion thereof, has not been surveyed and the HPT Staff determines it has not been previously disturbed1, or if the APE has been surveyed but the HPT Staff determines the survey is not adequate, it may be appropriate to have a new survey conducted. 1 The term previously disturbed as defined in the PA refers to areas where previous construction, or other activities by human or na...
