Book Description
In the spring of 1984, El Paso Electric Company applied to the U.S. Army, Ft. Bliss, Texas, for a right-of-way for the construction of the 345 KV Caliente-Newman-Amrad power transmission system which would cross Maneuver Area I on Ft. Bliss. Prior to granting the right-of-way, the Ft. Bliss Directorate of Engineering and Housing (DEH) required that a program to assess the impact to historic properties within the proposed right-of-way be carried out. Of the 18 archaeological sites that might be impacted by the project, 12 could be completely avoided by relocating ground disturbing activities such as construction pads and access roads. Under the direction of a scope of work prepared by DEH, six sites that could not be avoided were subjected to surface collection and testing to determine the existence and/or extent of subsurface deposits. El Paso Electric contracted with the Cultural Resources Management Division of New Mexico State University to carry out the fieldwork. After consultation with Dr. Glenn DeGarmo (DEH-E), it was determined that five of the sites contained no subsurface deposits in the areas to be impacted. The sixth site (FB 3:1132) did have significant subsurface remains and therefore was avoided by all construction activities. Fieldwork was terminated at the conclusion of the surface collection and subsurface testing program without extensive data recovery being performed. Subsequently, El Paso Electric Company contracted with Batcho & Kauffman Associates to analyze and report on data recovered during the surface collection and testing program. This report presents the results of that analysis.

Book Description
Between February 27 and March 7, 2008, archaeologists from the Fort Bliss Directorate of Public Works - Environment conducted a pedestrian survey of 24 acres for a proposed power line running from Range 47 to Range 48 and 49, Dona Ana Range, New Mexico. The APE is a 15 m wide by 6.4 mile long corridor that runs along an existing dirt road. The APE will have poles installed along the length of the corridor using a drilling rig. Areas of large coppice dunes will be bladed prior to pole installation to ease pole installation and create a service access line along the route. The project was initiated to comply with the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) of 1966 as amended (PL-96-515) and guided by 36 CFR 800 as implemented through the Fort Bliss Programmatic Agreement and AR 200-4; the Archaeological and Historical Preservation Act (AHPA) of 1974 as amended (PL-93-291); the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of 1969 (PL-90-190) as implemented by 40 CFR 6, 40 CFR 1500-1508, 32 CFR 651, and AR 200-2; and Executive Order Number 11593 (Protection and Enhancement of the Environment). Five new sites were documented along the proposed power line corridor. Of these, only one was considered eligible for inclusion to the NRHP. Eight previously recorded sites lie along the proposed power line corridor. Of these, two (LA 97945 and LA 92563) have been recommended eligible for inclusion to the NRHP; three sites are recommended not eligible for the NRHP and have NM SHPO concurrence and are not considered further in this report as the project will have no effect. Three other sites were recently re-evaluated and found to be not eligible for the NRHP. The two eligible sites have been subjected to data recovery and are considered mitigated; the project will have no adverse affect at these sites. One site, LA 91032, was of undetermined eligibility and re-evaluated during the current project. This site was determined eligible for the NRHP and is currently within a Restricted Zone. The power line installation will have no adverse effect on the qualities that make this site eligible. In sum, the current project will have no adverse affect on any historic properties.
