description: This document presents the results of archaeological testing within a portion of the Germann Site (AZ U:10:10 [PG]). The project proponent, North Valley Corp Center, LLC, is planning to develop this parcel. SWCA conducted an archaeological survey of the property in June 2006 (Bellavia and Mitchell 2006a). An approximately 53.7-acre area within site AZ U:10:10 (PG), including a 200 foot buffer off of the site boundary, is located on the property of North Valley Corp Center, LLC. SWCA conducted archaeological test excavations within this 53.7-acre portion of the Germann Site to determine whether significant cultural deposits or human remains may be present. Three cultural features— one prehistoric and two historic—were identified during the testing, however no prehistoric habitation features, human remains, or funerary objects were discovered. This report describes the results of the archaeological testing program.
