Archaeological Survey for the Judge Joseph Holt

to the house and proposed for ground disturbance;
shovel tests will be placed at 20-meter intervals in
areas that are more remote from the house. The
proposed work includes excavation of 75 shovel tests
at various intervals and one or two deep auger tests
to evaluate the potential for buried prehistoric
deposits.
