description: This document presents the results of archaeological testing of a site located in a future development in west Maricopa County. As a result of a survey of the Arroyo Seco parcel, the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility of AZ T:11:165 (ASM) was indeterminate (Schmidt et al. 2004); testing was recommended to determine the site’s eligibility. This work was done in support of an application for a permit under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is the lead agency coordinating the compliance process for impacts to any affected cultural resources (per Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act). The site could not be avoided by construction and the density of artifacts on the surface suggested there may be subsurface remains at this location. However, testing documented no subsurface features or artifacts and no further work is recommended for this site. Testing included surface collections and backhoe trenching. No subsurface features or artifacts were found. The artifact assemblage is informative about the archaeology of this area, but the site does not contain intact surface or subsurface deposits, so it does not appear to meet the criteria for eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places. No further work is recommended for this site.
