description: The City of Phoenix (COP) plans to make improvements will include roadway widening, storm drain installation, the addition of curbs and gutters, and landscaping along the west side of the road. EcoPlan Associates, Inc., (EcoPlan) completed cultural resource survey of the COP’s Van Buren improvement project area (McDermott 2003). Archaeological Consulting Services, Inc., (ACS) surveyed the contiguous portion of the BOR irrigation lateral USA fee property (Fangmeier 2002). Both surveys identified site AZ T:12:184 (ASM) [SRP 002-396-1], a surface scatter of Hohokam ceramics and lithics, located within the current BOR fee property. Survey investigation of the surface artifact scatter did not provide sufficient information to assess the site’s National Register of Historic Places (National Register) eligibility or its relationship to the adjacent Hohokam site of Los Aumentos [AZ T:12:178 (ASM)]. Accordingly, identification and eligibility testing, along with collection of the surface artifact scatter, was recommended for the site (McDermott 2003). As an addendum to its cultural resource survey report associated with the project, EcoPlan prepared an archaeological testing plan for site AZ T:12:184 (ASM) (McDermott 2003). On behalf of COP, EcoPlan completed the field aspects of the testing program. The final documentation of the testing program will be completed upon receipt of the results of the detailed analyses on the collected samples. This preliminary report is provided to BOR as a summary of the testing results to date. It is intended to provide sufficient cultural resource documentation to support and expedite BOR’s consultation with SHPO regarding the USA fee property transfer.
