description: This document is a preliminary report that presents the details of mapping 80 sites (maps not included) known in the project area, brief descriptions, and an initial evaluation of the significance of each site tested in the project area. Only 32 of the 80 sites were tested. As such this report was not considered adequate to provide supporting data for a draft EIS for the proposed Space Transportation Systems (STS) facilities at VAFB. A comprehensive final report on all aspects of field and lab work are expected Dec. 31, 1974.
