Document Description
A DPR archaeologist will excavate up to 30 holes using a hand auger in the Williams Grove Campground. The purpose of the testing is to evaluate subsurface soil composition for the presences of cultural resources in preparation of a proposed project to repair the campground water system. Water system repair will be evaulated in a separate environmental document. Each auger hole will measure 4" in diameter and up to 12' in depth. Refill each hole once auger test is complete. If solid subsurface objects are encountered during the testing, DPR archaeologist will back auger out of hole and move to a new location.
