description: In the period between October 2005 and June 2006, engineering-environmental Management, Inc. (e2M) conducted a cultural resources update and testing project of 47 sites at Kirtland Air Force Base (KAFB) to determine their eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Eleven of the 34 sites recommended eligible are threatened from modern disturbances (LA 69885, LA 137933, LA 137981, LA 137985, LA 137987, LA 137988, LA 137995, LA 138002, LA 138016, LA 138028 and LA 138029). Most of the disturbance is from roads or trails and one site, LA 1380209, straddles the boundary of Kirtland Air Force Base and the Cibola National Forest. The remaining 13 sites lack significant archaeological deposits and are recommended not eligible to the National Register of Historic Places. The sites consist of small assemblages that testing either failed to find evidence for buried iii artifacts or found few artifacts in deposits that are eroded or redeposited from slopewash and bioturbation. Eight of the thirteen sites are damaged from construction activities associated with roads, mechanical disturbance from land clearing, or mining activity. With the exception of collecting the artifacts exposed on the surface of theses site for future study, the sites do not require additional cultural resource management protection.
