b. The archaeological consultant shall advise all project contractors to be on <br /> the alert for evidence of expected resources, of how to identify the evidence <br /> of the expected resources, and of the appropriate protocol in the event of <br /> discovering an archaeological resource. <br /> c. The archaeological monitor shall be present on the Staples Ranch site until <br /> the Director of Community Development, in consultation with <br /> the archaeological consultant, determines that project construction activities <br /> could have no effects on significant archaeological resources. <br /> d. The archaeological monitor shall record and be authorized to collect soil <br /> samples and artifactual/ecofactual material as warranted for analysis. <br /> e. If an intact archaeological deposit were to be encountered, all soils <br /> disturbing activities in the vicinity of the deposit shall cease. The City shall <br /> empower the archaeological monitor to temporally <br /> redirect demolition/excavation/construction crews and heavy equipment <br /> until the resource is evaluated. The archaeological consultant shall <br /> immediately notify the Director of the Community Development of the <br /> encountered resources. <br /> f. Should archaeological resources be encountered during construction, the <br /> project developer shall consult with City and tribal representatives to <br /> determine the appropriate disposition of findings. Mitigation measures shall <br /> include one of the three alternatives below: <br /> i. In-Situ Preservation: The project developer shall preserve <br /> artifacts and resources as found and shall apply suitable open <br /> space, capping, or monumentation to the site. The project <br /> developer shall alter development plans to accommodate this <br /> alternative, as necessary. <br /> ii. Excavation/Recovery: The archaeological consultant shall <br /> excavate the site, evaluate the site for historical references, <br /> recover artifacts as appropriate, and cover the site to preserve <br /> remaining artifacts. The project developer shall maintain <br /> sufficient buffering between development subsurface <br /> construction and the location of resources. <br /> iii. Excavation/Removal: The archaeological consultant shall <br /> excavate and recover the cultural resources as described above <br /> and remove artifacts as necessary. However, due to the depth of <br /> development excavation, the site would be permanently disturbed. <br /> If the City requires data recovery, the archaeological consultant shall first <br /> prepare an Archaeological Data Recovery Plan that s/he shall submit to the <br /> Director of Community Development for review and approval. <br /> If development plans call for trenching within 200 feet of the Arroyo Mocho, a <br /> program of subsurface mechanical trenching along the impacted route <br /> shall precede project trenching in an attempt to locate additional <br /> archaeological sites and/or the original meander of the Mocho, where such <br /> sites would most likely be. If additional sites were to be found, the project <br /> PUD-98, CarMax Auto Superstores Page 17 <br />
