CA 95965 Oroville, Calitort� RE: TPM AP# 62-20-02 ; I .C . # L90-1 Dear County Planners , In response to the request of December 19 , 1989 , a record search for the above cited project located on USGS Berry Creek 7 . 5 ' quad ; T21N , R5E , Sec . 34 , was conducted by examining the official maps and records for archaeological sites in Butte County. RESULTS PREHISTORIC RESOURCES: There are several unrecorded ethnographic village sites known to be located within the immediate vicinity of the project area, which may in fact extend into the project area . These sites listed as being associated with the Konkow branch of the Maidu Indians . The closest one of these sites appears to be located along the southeast portion of the project area. HISTORIC RESOURCES: There are no previously recorded historic archaeological sites within the project area or adjacent parcels . There are several recorded historic archaeological sites located within the vicinity of Oroville. PREVIOUS ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS: According to our records , the project area has not been previously surveyed for cultural resources. The nearest surveys have been to the north and south (report Vs B-L-184 and 162) . These surveys did not mention the presence of any prehistoric or historic sites. LITERATURE SEARCH: Reviewed were the official records and maps for archaeological sites and surveys in Butte County . Also reviewed were the National Register of Historic Places, the California Inventory of Historic Resources ( 1976) , California Historical Landmarks ( 1982 ) , California Points of Historic Interest, and Historic Spots in California ( 1966) . RECOMMENDATIONS : Based upon the above information , the sensitivity for both prehistoric and historic cultural resources is estimated to be generally high. The presence of flat land and gentle sloping ridges in close proximity to seasonal/permanent water sources such as those flowing into Berry Creek frequently attracted both aboriginal and Euro-American populations . The fact that a known, yet unrecorded , ethnographic village site ,� f �r 't a v ,. � � +� . i G '.' 3 t.. c �, � . 't. i �. �"' .v v exists within the immediate vicinity of the project area adds to the overall sensitivity of the area. Therefore, .we recommend that an archaeological survey be conducted of the entire project area by a qualified archaeologist prior to project operations. Thank you for your concern in preserving 'California ' s cultural heritage.

Does the project have the potential to degrade the quality of the environment, substantially reduce the habitat of a fish or wildlife species, cause a fish or wildlife population to drop below self-sustaining levels, threaten to eliminate a plant or animal community, reduce the number or restrict the range of a rare or endangered plant or animal or eliminate important examples of major periods of California history,.or prehistory? 2. Does the project have the potential to achieve short-term benefits to the detriment of long-term environmental goals? (A short-term impact on the environment is one which occurs in a relatively brief period of time while X long=term impacts will endure into the future.) 3. Does the project have impacts which are individually limited but cumulatively considerable? (A project may impact on two or more separate resources where the impact on each resource is relatively small, but where the effect of the total of those impacts on the environment is significant.) 4. Does the project have environmental effects which will cause substantial X adverse effects on human beings, either directly or indirectly? III. DETERM T NAT T ON (To be completed by the Lead Agency).

DISCUSSION OF ENVIRONMENTAL EVALUATION AP a 62-20-02 1a,b ,c,e, f ,3b, f . Development of roads, driveways and building sites on this property may result in some unstable earth conditions, disruption , displacement , compaction and overcovering of the soil . This may be greater than normal due to predominate slopes of 20% or greater on site. These changes could lead to changes In absorbtlon rates, drainage patterns and the rate in amount of surface runoff and a subsequent discharge Into surface waters both on and off site due to erosion . Complying with the provisions of Butte County ' s Grading Ordinance should reduce any erosion and siltation impacts to a less than significant level . 1g . A certain amount of timber land will be removed from potential production due to the development of home sites and roads . This should not be a significant affect . 1h . • All of Butte County Is located within a Moderate Earthquake Intensity Zone VIII . The subject property is located approximately 6 miles south of the Big Bend Fault which is of unknown activity . Construction of buildings to Uniform Building Code Standards for seismically active areas should provide adequate protection to occupants Incase of seismic activity. 3d , j . Portions of the property along the Creek are subject to flooding according to the latest Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Maps . Ample room exists on all of the parcels to provide building sites outside of the flood zone. 5a,d . The Subject property Is located In an area of critical winter range for the Buck ' s Mountains deer herd . The subject property is located within a development area as shown on the maps provided to the Butte County by the California Department of Fish and Game. Properties located within development areas can split to the size of those proposed subject to payment of deer herd mitigation fees at time of building permit application should such a fee structure be adopted at that time. 13a,c, f . This project will generate additional traffic on roads . This Incremental Increase in traffic will represent a Increase In traffic, traffic hazards and maintenance in the area. 14 . This project will represent an Incremental Increase in demand for public services in a rural area. 20a . The subject property Is located in an area where archaeological sites may occur . It is necessary to perform a records check through the Department of Anthropology at California State University,, Chico, In order to determine if significant sites may be located on the property. If so, an archaeological survey of the property may be necessary . II . Mandatory Findings Of Significance: 1 . See Item 20a . Suggested Mitigation Measure: 1 . No Mitigation Measure is recommended at this time regarding archaeological Impacts. In order to access the potential for adverse Impacts and determine what , if any, mitigation measures would be appropriate, the applicant should contact the Northeast Information Center at California State University, Chico, for a records search and sensitivity evaluation . Should the Center recommend that an archaeological survey be conducted , it will then be necessary for a qualified archaeologists to perform an archaeological survey of the property . 2 .
