Notice of Intent: Archeological Inventory and Significance Evaluations along proposed off-road vehicle routes, accessible shorelines and designated roads: Performance under this existing task agreement is directed toward the recipientâ¿¿s involvement in assisting the National Park Service (NPS) in partial fulfillment of compliance obligations under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) for the Glen Canyon National Recreation Area Off-road Vehicle Management Plan/Environmental Impact Statement (Plan). The current statement of work outlines a program of archeological inventory and significance evaluation for the purposes of identifying cultural resources within the area of potential effects, to evaluate their significance and eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places, and to assess site-specific impacts including those resulting from implementation of the Plan. The results of this program of activities will inform the development of resource stewardship planning at Glen Canyon and ensure meaningful Section 106 consultation concerning determinations of eligibility, effect, and proposed treatment recommendations for cultural resources potentially affected by implementation of the Plan. During the course of performance, the NPS was informed of a cultural resource under imminent threat of total loss of significant archeological data resulting from implementation of the Plan. The NPS has determined that archeological data recovery is necessary and justified to mitigate the loss of significant data and preserve such data in the Glen Canyon museum collections. This task agreement modification is for the development of a research design and its implementation for archeological data recovery of the cultural resource: site GLCA 2016-01, an isolated hearth feature in the Orange Cliffs Unit of Glen Canyon.
