ARRA: Archaeological Survey for Force Main and New Wastewater Treatment Plant at Pennyrile Forest State Resort Park, Christian County, Kentucky

This proposal has been prepared in response to a request by Mr. Frank Phillips of the Kentucky Finance and Administration Cabinet for a proposal and cost estimate for conducting a Phase I archaeological survey of a proposed force main corridor and water treatment plant in Pennyrile Forest State Resort Park in Christian County, Kentucky. This investigation is intended to provide specific information concerning the presence of historic or prehistoric archaeological resources within the proposed construction corridors and to evaluate any archaeological sites for their potential eligibility for listing on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The work that is proposed will include a review of the existing archaeological sites and an evaluation of the extant documentary and cartographic sources relevant to the project area. This information will serve as the basis for the design and completion of a Phase I archaeological survey, using a combination of surface and subsurface investigative techniques. This survey work and associated analysis and report preparation will take place prior to initiation of actual construction efforts.
