Field investigations included a pedestrian survey and subsurface Seymour auger tests. One previously unrecorded site, 13PK595, within the project area. Artifacts from 13PK595 due to circa 1944, and background research indicates the principal structure at the site was standing between the years 1931 and 1971.

On the basis of background research and survey results the project right-of-way is recommended for clearance from an archeological perspective.
