Popis: SRP uses FR 80 to access Horse Mesa Dam and associated facilities in eastern Maricopa County, Arizona. Also known as Horse Mesa Dam Road, FR 80 traverses rugged terrain between its point of origin at SR 88 and its terminus at the dam on the Salt River. The road requires periodic maintenance for its sustainable and safe use, and SRP intends to implement future road improvement projects in coordination with TNF. SRP contracted SWCA Environmental Consultants (SWCA) to conduct a Class III cultural resources survey along a 4.3-mile-long stretch of FR 80, between SR 88 and the point where the road enters lands withdrawn from the TNF for use by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation (i.e., Reclamation-withdrawn lands). The purpose of the survey was to identify cultural resources that are listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) so that SRP can take the necessary measures to avoid or minimize impacts to them during future operations and maintenance activities on or along FR 80, and to assist the TNF in its management of cultural resources on the lands that it administers.
