In 2008, the U.S. Army Garrison Fort Wainwright (USAG FWA) and U.S. Army Garrison Fort Richardson (USAG FRA) initiated several projects that triggered archaeological and cultural resource analyses and surveys of proposed project areas. This report details each undertaking for which archaeological fieldwork was completed at Fort Wainwright and Fort Richardson. One range project conducted at the Donnelly Training Area (DTA; within the boundaries of former Fort Greely) is reported in this report.
