Document Description
The project will conduct archaeological data recovery excavations at the flood-damaged remnants of a prehistoric archaeological site at the mouth of Borrego Palm Canyon. The data recovery is designed to recover the information in a burned rock and soil feature area before additional flooding or public uses completey remove the remains. Excavations will remove less than two cubic meters of soil to an approximate maximum depth of 40 cm. All soils will be replaced in the excavation units at the end of the project. No shrubs will be impacted. The project will be overseen by the State Parks District Archaeologist.
