RE: Completion of Section 106 Responsibilities
Dear Richalene:
Enclosed you will find one copy of the negative Historic Property Survey Report (HPSR)
for the above referenced undertaking. Section 106 responsibilities were completed on December
23, 1997, when Jeffery S. Lewis, FHWA Senior Transportation Engineer, signed the negative
HPSR form and APE map. Other than the existing bridge, no other cultural resources were
identified within the project's Area of Potential Effects (APE). The bridge, built in 1978, was
determined to be not eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places in
accordance with the Caltrans statewide historic bridge inventory, completed in 1987.
No further cultural resource studies should be necessary in connection with this
undertaking unless project plans are changed to incorporate areas into the APE that are not
covered by the enclosed HPSR.
Should you have any questions or comments regarding the above or the enclosed, please
do not hesitate to call me at 688-675!. Thank you.

INTRODUCTION
In April of 1990, the Cultural Resource Management firm of ROTH AND
ASSXIATES was retained by COTTON/BEUND ASSOCIATES. INC. to conduct a
cultural resources survey for the Rancho Santa Fe Road Environmental Impact
Report. The approximate 700 acre study area, located within the City of
Carlsbad 4 miles east of the juncture of Batiquitos Lagoon and the Pacific Ocean,
involves the realignment and improvement of Rancho Santa Fe Road and mass
grading of portions of the surrounding environment by Fieldstone/La Costa
Associates. The irregular-shaped parcel, bisected by the north-south
alignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road, is roughly bounded on the north by
Questhaven and San Marcos Creek; on the south by La Costa Ave. and Calle
de Fuente; on the west by San Marcos Creek and undeveloped lands east of
El Camino Real; and on the east by the City of Carlsbad city limits. It
includes undeveloped land within primarily Sections 31 and 32 and smaller
portions of Sections 5,6,29 and 30, Township 12S Range 3W U.S.G.S. Rancho
Santa Fe Quadrangle.
The investigation involved both field reconnaissance and literature
review. Record searches were conducted at the San Diego Museum of Man and
the South Coastal Information Center, San Diego State Unviersity in order to
identify all previously recorded resources located within a one-mile radius of
the project boundaries. Forty-eight sites including historic adobes, mine
shafts, prehistoric lithic quarrys, lithic scatters, shell middens and extensive
prehistoric village sites are represented. The larger La Costa/Batiquitos
area with over 75% of the area surveyed and over 150 sites recorded is one of
the most thoroughly studied areas within the greater San Diego County area.
As a result of the record searches, six sites were plotted as occurring within and
two adjacent to the project boundaries. As a part of the survey, attempts were
made to relocate these resources and assess them as to significance and future
research potential. In addition to conducting record searches, -early maps and
aerial photographs were obtained to document the historic use of the study area.
Although portions of the area have been included as parts of at least 12 previous
reports, the current ROTH AND ASSOCIATES investigation involved a near 100%
on-foot survey.
As a result of the survey, three of the previously recorded sites and
one additional site (all prehistoric) were located and assessed. The *
tti
methodology and results of the reconnaissance and archival research and
initial testing recommendations for each of the four identified resources p
is presented in the following document. ^

SETTING
The approximate 700 acre study area is located within the City of
Carlsbad four miles east of the juncture of Batiquitos Lagoon and the
Pacific Ocean. The irregularly shaped parcel, bisected by the north-south
alignment of Rancho Santa Fe Road includes undeveloped land within primarily
Sections 31 and 32 and smaller portions of Sections 5,6,29 and 30 of T12S
R3W of the U.S.G.S. Rancho Santa Fe Quadrangle. The acreage is roughly bounded
by Questhaven and San Marcos Creek on the north; La Costa Ave. and Calle de
Fuente on the south; San Marcos Creek and undeveloped land east of El Fuerte
Street on the west and the City of Carlsbad boundary on the east (Figures #1 & #2)
Housing tracts occur'on the east side of Rancho Santa Fe Road at the southern
boundary of the project and along the west side of Rancho Santa Fe Road at the
south/southwest boundary. Light industrial development is occurring near the
intersection of Rancho Santa Fe and Questhaven roads. The portion of the
acreage on the west side of Rancho Santa Fe Road has been severely impacted
by borrowing activities, construction and mass grading-associated dumping
activities, and soil removal which, by analyzing the historic maps, seems to
have occurred primarily in the past fifteen years with the borrowing most
likely occurring in the early 1950's. With the exception of the Denk
Reservoir and transmission line access roads, the east side of the study
area is comparatively undisturbed.
Topographically, the project area is hilly containing a series of
drainages and ridges. The ridgeline in the northernmost portion reaches
over 900'AMSL in elevation then drops to the south to the head of an
intermittent drainage. The slope exceeds 24% in this area. The steep
escarpment of San Marcos Creek occurs along the northwest boundary.
Geologically the area is underlain primarily by Jura-Trias metavolcanic rocks
with mesozoic granitics occurring in the north, northeast corner. The meta-
volcanic rocks consist of massive greenstone,, breccias, tuff, rhyolite, bluish
gray metaconglomerates and quartz-feldspar granulite. Review of the geology
and soils maps indicate that this acreage is where geology and soils change
from marine deposits to metavolcanics and granitics. The majority of the
soil is classified as San Miguel-Exchequer rocky silt loams (50% San Miguel
silt loam/40% Exchequer silt loam and 10% rock). These soils were derived
from metavolcanic rock and typically have a clay subsoil. The upper areas
around San Marcos Creek and the mountain ridge along the eastern boundary
• ontain Exchequer rocky silt loam with 2-10% of the area containing exposed
rock outcrops. These yellovish-red soils formed in material weathered from
hard metabasic whitish and greenish rock. A patch of Cienba rocky coarse
sandy loam occurs in the northeast. This soil is typified by very large
granodiorite boulders (several bedrock milling features have been previously
recorded in this area). The majority of the property contains little
exposed bedrock that would have been suitable for prehistoric milling purposes
Raw materials that could have been used for lithic tool production area
exposed virthin the .3^udyarea but as highly weathered and fractured
chunks and nodules of. varied sizes: nassive outcrops were located but a few exposed veii^
were visible. During the survey care was taken to locate any possible
prehistoric quarry sites because "felsite", a generic term applied to lava that
has cooled less rapidly than others and is therefore dense and light in color
does occur specifically in the sc^ half of the project area. However '
historic borrow activity and massive dumping of calcerous sandstone chunks
dump truck piles and dump trails, mechanically scooped out areas, and general
heavy equipment movement over the area have not only disrupted those areas which
-y have contained prehistoric quarrys but have also created hundreds of "tractor-
facts throughout this portion of the acreage.
Vegetation includes coastal sage scrub, chaparral, grassland, riparian
woodland and eucalyptus; Undisturbed acreage containing thick, nearly
impassable stands of chaparral. Portions of the ridge system along the east/
southeast boundary have been recently denuded of vegetation by fire. Thus
allowing near perfect ground visibility in this particular area

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
P
Hi
P
Prior to the actual field survey of the Rancho Santa Fe Road Realignment
acreage, a degree of archival research was conducted in order to 1) identify
the location df all previously recorded cultural resources within the subject p
boundaries and 2) develop an understanding of historic use of the area. i*
Record searches were conducted at the San Diego Museum of Man and the South
Coastal Information Center, San Diego State University. As a result of these
searches, it was found that during surveys of varying intensity since the
1930's, six sites had been recorded within the boundaries. Pertinent data
were acquired from the various Cultural Resource Management reports generated
for this area that dealt specifically with the sites of direct concern.
In order to understand the historic land use of the area and locate,
if possible prior to survey, likely areas of historic occupation, maps and
aerial photographs were acquired from the San Diego Historical Society
Archives, the San Diego County Department of Planning and Land Use Maps and
Records Division and the San Diego County Aerial Photo Bank, If historic
resources had been located during the survey, more extensive land ownership
data would have been acquired. The following maps and photographs were
inspected (several have been included within this report).

The following Cultural Resource Managment reports are on file at the
South Coastal Information Center. San Diego State University, Each supplies
additional information regarding survey and testing methodologies and analysis
for the resources recorded in the vicinity of the Rancho Santa Fe Road Realignment
project. Each of the prehistoric cultural traditions and historic eras
discussed in the following section is represented within the bounds of the search,
indicating that although the specific study area has a paucity of sites, this
general area of San Diego County has contained resources attractive to human
occupation for at least the past 10,000 years.

RECORD SEARCH RESULTS/ BACKGROUND DATA *
Hi.
Record searches were conducted at the San Diego Museum of Man and the P
South Coastal Information Center, San Diego State University to identify
all prehistoric and historic resources plotted within a one mile radius of
the project area. This portion of Carlsbad has been subjected to extensive
survey and as a result of these reconnaissances, forty-eight'sites have been
recorded within the defined record search area. The majority of these
resources, both prehistoric and historic, are clustered to the north and
south of the current study area within flatter, more open areas north of "'^
San Marcos Creek and along an intermittent drainage leading into Encinitas
Creek. Nearly all the acreage included within the present study has been m
subjected to archaeological survey between 1959-1990. As a result of these M
previous investigations, six prehistoric sites were recorded as occurring
within the project area, two immediately adjacent to a property boundary.
During the on-foot survey attempts were made to relocate these recorded ^
resources and reassess their potential significance according to established "*
guidelines. Outside the boundaries sites include historic adobes, mine shafts,
prehistoric lithic quarries, lithic scatters, shell middens and extensive
prehistoric occupation/village sites. The six sites within the project •?
boundaries include an isolated slick (W-2210), small shell and lithic scatter
(W-941), small shell scatter (W-940), two acre San Dieguito lithic scatter (W-181), ^
lithic scatter (SDi-11569) and possible "early period" occupation site (SDi-
11570). Each' of these sites is discussed in the Field Results section. Five of
these recorded sites occur at the periphery of the concentrations cited above.
The results of this current survey combined with previous studies seem, to *
prove the archaeological site occurrence sensitivity criteria stated by
Russell Kaldenberg in 1975: m
The present Santiago Peak Metavolcanics geological unit •
can be utilized in employing a basic criteria for
the absence of archaeological site sensitivity. In the areas W
of La Costa where this geological unit occurs, it can be expected ^
that only a few archaeological sites will be located. This
potential,..can be modified by the presence/absence of proximal p,
water sources, the coverage of dense vegetation, or ground slope,

The general Batiquito Lagoon/La Costa area (including the majority
of the subject property) has been subjected to intensive survey. Beginning
in the early 1930's, Malcolm Rogers of the San Diego Museum of Man explored
this area, recording 26 sites in the vicinity. Typically, Rogers recorded
large areal expanses under a single site number. W-181, for example, was
recorded as "i acre concentration with 2 marginal acres of scattered occupation"
located on a hill along the rim of the north fork of Encinitas Creek. Portions
of this site thus falling within the current study area. Rogers described the
site as representative of San Dieguito and La Jollan occupation and noted that
the site (no description of observed artifacts) was very concentrated
"probably because the surrounding mesa top is very stoney except in this one
area". He further stated that "for a total distance of 1 3/4 miles along the
Encinitas Grant Plateau felsite flaking can be found...it is the center of
the greatest concentration of San Dieguito occupation in San Diego County".
No evidence of this site could be found during the current investigation.
In 1959. the University of California Archaeological Survey, under the
direction of Claude Warren and D,L. True led a series of surveys concentrating
on the river valleys and lagoons of San Diego County, As a result of this
survey which included the western half of the current project area, thirty-
three sites were recorded around the lagoon: none within the current study
jH area. In the late 1960's and early 1070's a few excavations were conducted
by local students on sites near Encinitas Creek.
The majority of studies have been conducted as a result of passage
of the California Environmental Quality Act. In 1975 and 1976 Russell
2 Kaldenberg surveyed approximately 6,000 acres within the La Costa Land Company
holdings at the eastern end of the lagoon including the southern half of
the current project area. Eight sites were recorded clustered along the
P southern edge of the west fork of Encinitas Creek. Two of these sites
(W-940 and W-941) occur within the study area. W-940 was located on the
east slope of a gently rising knoll approximately 200' north of a spring.
A scraper, possible projectile point tip and marine shell were noted within
an approximate 15m x 15m area. During the current survey, this resource
was not relocated. W-941 located adjacent to the spring was described
as a shell scatter with a thin scatter of flakes extending along the
creek. This site was re-evaluated in 1976 by Bull. He concluded that
the flakes and shell "provide little substantial information of local

prehistory. Their recording with a local institution represents the only
feasible mitigation requirement"(Bull 1976:74). W-941 was relocated during
the current investigation. Although impacted by a dirt road and recent
trash disposal, a small amount of marine shell and lithic debris was observed
in dark midden-like soils (See Survey Results).
Other surveys which incorporated portions of the current acreage
include Berryman (1982), Cook (1977), Echardt (1977). Bissel (1988),
Seeman (1982) Gallegos (1989:1990). Randy Franklin as a part of of the
large Echardt survey recorded an isolated milling feature (W-2210) as
occuring along the transmission line at the 350' elevation. This isolated
feature, if in fact in was a slick and not the result of natural weathering,
was not relocated during the current survey. The realignment of Rancho
Santa Fe Road was surveyed by Gallegos in 1989 with negative results. Most
recently, Gallegos conducted two surveys to the north and east of the
current project area ( Land Pac Project and University Commons Project). During
the 40 acre'University Commons Project, acreage that abuts the north boundary,
two sites were located that extend into the study area: (SDi-11569 and SDi-11570)
Both of these resources were relocated and are discussed in"detail in the Field
Results section of this report.
Site specific conclusions are an important step in any archaeological
analysis. However, a site cannot merely be viewed as an isolated cultural
phenomenon. It should, if data are available, be incorporated into a larger
regional perspective. The discussion that follows is a brief overview
v» concerning site density and site types found in the vicinity of the
taf Rancho Santa Fe Road Realignment project.
^ The cultural stages manifested in this area of San Diego span at
least a 9.000 year period. Radiocarbon dates for the recorded and tested
resources to the south and southwest of the project area range from 8580^125
^ (W-179) to 550^150 (W-49C). documenting use of this region by the three
major cultural traditions: the San Dieguiteo Paleo-Indians; the la Jolla
Complex; and a late prehistoric Complex which in this particular area of the
county (between Buena Vista Lagoon and Batiquitos Lagoon)includes both
the Shoshonean-speaking Luiseno and the Yuman-speaking Kumeyaay.

SCURCE: Hector 1985 Excavation of Six sites in
la Costa Near Batiquitos lagoon
* Sites within one mile of the project boundaries
20
The Son DioKuito Complex, first recorded by Malcolm Rotors, represents
a geographically widespread chipped stone industry. Cultural manifestations
of this tradition have been identified in four American and three Mexican
states. This complex is known to have begun prior to 9030 years B.P. and
persisted along the coast until ic was replaced by the La Jolla Complex prior
. to 8360± years B.P. The majority of the identified San Dieguite sites are
found on mesas and ridges. Artifact types include several scraper types,
leaf-shaped knives and dart points, crescents, a few hammerstones, crude
chopping tools and some milling equipment. At least two of the previously
recorded sites within a mile of the study area were identified with this
cultural tradition. This association is generally made based on extreme
patination of lithic material and skilled workmanship of the scrapers, blades
and knives. Sites associated with the San Dieguito Complex seldom have
midden soils or bone rema-'ns.
Unlike the San Dieguito Paleo Indians, whose assemblage suggests
emphasis on hunting, the La Jollans appear to have been primarily gatherers
of plants, seeds, and lagoon mollusca. This complex is a local mainfestation
of the Millingstone Horizon which thrived along the California coast from
" San Luis Obispo to San Diego County. Radiocarbon dates imply at least a
m- 6,000 years span of occupation. Attributed to the LaJollan. peoples is
U a relatively homogeneous assemblage of artifacts including crude percussion-
^ flaked choppers, relatively unpatterned scrapers, hammerstones, and manos
ill and metates. Projectile points are rare as are bone tools. Mortars and
pestles are rare and many sites contain large, crude scraper planes.
Wallace postulates two possibilities for the origins of the Millingstone
peoples: 1) they developed locally from a preceeding hunting tradition;
^ 2) or they were interior food collecting peoples who spread towards the
coast; changing their gathering strategies to include marine resources.
La Jollan sites are generally found on knolls overlooking water or past
water sources. An increase in size and stability of this complex is
evidenced by the depth and extent of large midden deposits. Movement of
the populations inland may have occurred when the lagoons began silting
in or may represent a seasonal round of gathering plant foods.

Until approximately 2,000 B.P., cultural and ecological conditions 0,
remained relatively stable. With the arrival of the Yuman and Shoshonean
cultures;, the La Jollan people either migrated further south into Baja ^
California where their culture" may have continued until 800 B.P., or they ^
were eventually assimilated into the later groups.
The Late Archaic Yuman-speaking Kumey/aay came into the San Diego ^ *
County area some time prior to the desiccation of Lake Cahuilla (A.D,1600).
True. Meighan and Crew (1974) drew the linguistic boundary between.the fK
Shoshonean speaking Luiseno and the Yuman speaking Kumeyaay as follows: from P
Lake Henshaw westward and slightly southward, passing north of Escondido
W
and reaching the ocean just south of Oceanside. Kroeber (1925) drew the
boundary passing south of Escondido and reaching the ocean just north of
Batiquitos Lagoon. DeGrotte (1975) drew the boundary line south of the ^
Encinitas Rancho boundaries. The descrepencies in the southern boundary
suggest that at various times the territory between Buena Vista Creek *
and Batiquitos Lagoon fluctuated between Lusieno and Kumeyaay occupation •?
or that at some point, this area may have been shared by both traditions.
In the process of adaptation to a similar environment, all Late <m
Prehistoric sites in San Diego County share many subsistence and basic ^
cultural elements; however a noticeable distinction exists between the
mm
southern and northem area in grinding tools, containers, mortuary practices,
and to a lesser degree, projectile points. More specifically, True (1966) ^
suggests the following archaeological distinctions between Luiseno and ^
Kumeyaay: ^
1. In Luiseno territory, there is no clear cut evidence of *f
gathered urn cremation, formalized pit burials, or the use of ^
grave markers. ^
2. Side- notched projectile points were preferred by the Kumeyaay.
3. In Lusieno sites, there are comparatively small numbers of scrapers
m
and scraper planes and hammerstones. However, comparatively, the
Luiseno have more cortex-backed scrapers. *
4. There is a definite difference in the kinds and elaboration of the
ceramics. «ii
5. Steatite artifacts are uncommon in Luiseno territory. ^
6. There tends to a predominance of quartz in Lusieno sites. The ^
Kumeyaay used a wide array of lithics including obsidian, felsite ^
and desert imports. II 22 Si
In discussing the Luiseno.and Kumeyaay cultural traditions. True.
Meighan and Crew conclude that in southern California, "...adaptation to an
identical environment has produced a similar subsistence base...but with a
recognizable difference in life style and artifactual inventory" (1974:118).
The Luiseno have been described as sedentary and autonomous village groups.
In contrast, to the relatively sedentary Luiseno, the Kumeyaay have been
described as semi-nomadic peoples who moved according to the seasonal
availability of food resources maintaining two relatively stable.and
permanent camps occupied seasonally.
Eventhough these cultural traditions were modified by different spheres
of influence, culture patterns can not be correlated simply with known
linguistic and ethnic boundaries. "A flow of cultural elements occurred
between various cultures" (Strong 1974:xiii). and the nature of any one
group can not be understood without attempting to comprehend the nature of
cultural interrelationships and the dynamics of diffusion. Further research
in San Diego County is requisite in understanding the scope of Shoshonean-
Yuman interaction.
The entire culture of the Southern California Indian,
like that of all such closely related groups may well
be regarded as a liquid medium that flowed more or less
evenly from group to group, thinning out more and more,
m the farther each cultural influence extended from its
source.g^^^^g 1974:45
m Any Late Prehistoric sites found within the apparent "overlap" area
^ afford an opportunity to study these interrelationships.
y During the mission and rancho periods (post 1769), the Indian settlement
patterns and populations were radically disrupted. The inhabitants of the
" coastal areas, river valleys and main corridors of movement were the first
to suffer. The populations that did survive did so by retreating into the
mountain and desert regions. As a result of this disruption, there is a
li lack of knowledge concerning pre-contact life patterns. There are extensive
^ ethnographies of the Luiseno and Kumeyaay however, they are for a much later
period and can not be considered as definitive statements of aboriginal life;
^ the arrival of the Spanish and removal of the Native Americans to the mission
caused a rapid collapse of the traditional culture.
m
p;
Based on discoveries by Cabrillo (1542) and Vizcaino (1603). all land ^
in California belonged to the King of Spain. However, the Spanish era in *^
Alta California did not officially begin until 1769 when orders were sent from m
Spain to establish a chain of missions from San Diego to Monterey,. The logs IK
from this expedition have furnished historians with a written description
of this area. This group camped at Batiquitos Lagoon as did the Portola
expedition. Here the expedition had dug a batequi from which to drink.
They encountered and traded with Indians living in the area. The Portola
expedition named the location San Alejo. Very little documentation of the
study area occurs in the historic record during the mission period primarily
because the Batiquitos Lagoon area is approximately half way between the
San Diego and San Luis Rey Missions. Mission records do indicate however, that
a substantial number of people must have resided along the San Marcos Creek/
Batiquitos Lagoon until at least the early 1800's. The Mission San Luis Rey
baptized 36 people from the rancheria of Betquitos and 25 from Bataquitos:
the Mission "San Diego baptized 211 people from the Batiquitos Lagoon rancherias.
Therefore, between 1774 and 1808, 274 Native Americans residing in the general
area had been Christianized, Researchers have suggested that over half of the
native populations along the coastal strip fled to the inland areas to escape
Spanish domination and half of those who remained refused baptism. Therefore, the
native population during the early years of Spanish control can be estimated
at 600-900 residents in the La Costa area.
Until 1833. the mission fathers controlled the best farming and grazing
lands in San Diego, The mesas and cactus covered rolling hills were used
for the grazing of the large herds of cattle, sheep and horses. By the
Act of Secularization the vast mission holdings began to be divided up into
private Rancho holdings. (Land not under direct mission control had begun
to be divided into ranches in 1822 with demise of Spanish rule.) Three ranches
were established in the vicinity of the study area: Rancho Los Vallecitos de
San Marcos (to the northeast); Rancho Agua Hedinoda (to the northwest) and
Las Encinitas or Canada de San Ali jo Rancho (to the south). The 700"*" acreage
of the current study were not included within these rancho holdings. Rancho
Las Encinitas boundaries however, abut the southern boundary. This 4,341 acre
rancho was granted to Andres Ybarra in 1842. Ruins from the adobe home have
been recorded as site W-947. Final patent was approved in 1871, approximately
ten years after Ybarra gave up ownership of the vast holdings. During the
OA
Ybarra occupation he used a small portion for cattle. In December 1860. the
land was sold to the mercantile firm of Mannasse and Schiller; the adobes on
the property being used for a store and a stage stop. The 1852 list of
taxpayers for San Diego County list Ybarra has having $2,567.00 in assets:
$2,000.00 for land, $100 for house, $250 for vineyard, $55 for 5 horses.
$180 for 15 tame cows and $32 for 4 oxen. The 1860 census lists Ybarra
as still owning the rancho with three acres of improved land and 4,435
uniin;n:oved acres. His produce during that year included $100 fo.r orchard
products, 40 gallons of wine and 6 tons of hay. $200 worth of animals were
slaughtered. By the early 1880's the rancho holdings had changed hands at
least twice before becoming the property of the Kimball brotfiers who were
developing National City.
The early 1879 U.S.G.S. land survey of this area (Wagner) noted the
"road to San Diego" crossing through the study area in generally the same
location as Rancho Santa Fe Road; this north-south route linking San Marcos
to the Encinitas Rancho lands. The area is described as rolling mesa and
"worthless land". In addition to the adobes south of the project affiliated
with the Ybarra holdings, Wagner notes settlement in the valley north of
the project and the J. Ortega and B, Orosco homes near the junction of what
is now Rancho Santa Fe Road and CJuesthaven, A sheep camp is noted in the
southeast corner of section 28 and the mouth of a destroyed copper mine tunnel
is noted in the scuthi«st comer of section 33. The first several decades of
American control of California had brought an influx of settlers to the
area, however the population remained small and the north county area remained
relatively isolated. Droughts between 1865 and 1869 and 1870 and 1873
laid waste to grazing land, herds were drastically diminished and attempts
at small scale homestead farming often failed. There was no running water; roads
were rugged and passage difficult; sanitary conditions were poor and what
staples could not be grown at home were often difficult to obtain. Few people
would take up land during these early decades because they thought it was
worthless. Some of those who did buy in the vicinity ran large herds of sheep.
During the 1860's mining activities began in this area as well. A copper
strike was worked for a few years along Escondido Creek and then abandoned.
(Between 1887 and 1917. the Encinitas Copper Company was established in the
same general area. Claims are still recorded in portions of sections 32 and
33 of Township 12S Range 3W. Other copper areas in the county included
acreage southwest of Ramona and north of Ramona near Julian.)

In 1860 there were only a handful of settlers in the north county as
far north as San Luis Rey. Slowly over the next two decades the population
increased. Southern California and San Diego were beginning to be sold to
Easterners and Midwesterners. As a gradual implementation of the fencing law
and accepted use of barbed wire ( not used extensively until 1881), in
conjunction with the invention pf cast iron (1873) and later (1883) concrete
irrigation pipes and electric power pumps (1885) which made extensive irrigation
possible, farming began to become a lucrative business. Early farming families
(Feelers, Lyman, Kelly and Bordens) had settled nearer the coast. By 1880, the P
railroad reached the area and the railroad stop of La Costa was established.
A small farming community began to develop to the west and south of the
hilly subject property. During the early eighties a land boom developed
which resulted in the establishment of Oceanside, Carlsbad, San Marcos. ?
Olivenhain and Encinitas in this area. By late 1888, the boom was over and
there was an abrupt halt to development; the relatively rural areas were
not as distrupted by the fall. Those residents who stayed in the area during
the following decades focused on improvement to their environment rather thaft
expansion. No activity is noted within the study area during this time fli
period.
About 1913. the Lux Land Company purchased approximately 1000 acres
in the study area. They also owned portions of the old Encinitas Rancho land,
the Lux family residing in the Ybarra adobe. Maps from this period show P
several dirt roads leading to the knolls overlooking San Marcos Creek. The
two within the current boundaries are only roads; no structures are evident. IP
Since this area exhibits signs of borrow and pit mining activity, it is possible •
a degree of the current land disruption occurred during this time. The
additional maps and aerial photographs depicting the area show the main
route being realigned several times, but still no development. By 1983,
the reservoir, water tank and "pit" are noted on the U.S.G.S. V
ll
Although the lands surrounding the subject property have been used since
prehistoric times and contain remnants of the major periods of both prehistoric *
and historic occupation, this rocky portion of land, situated between two ^
valleys and the expanse surrounding the lagoon, was not developed. Other m
than the road which appears as early as the 1870's and which most likely »
was used during the Rancho period if not earlier, no intensive prehistoric nor ^
historic occupation of this specific acreage is documented. ^

SURVEY METHODOLOGY
The field portion of the investigation was conducted over a three
week period in May and June of 1990 at the expense of 120 person hours,
Linda Roth and Judy Berryman of ROTH AND ASSOCIATES, both SOPA certified
archaeologists conducted the reconnaissance. As described below, due to
steep slopes and/or impassable plant growth, overall coverage of the acreage
is estimated at 80%. While 100% coverage is always the ideal, it is not
always physically feasible nor scientifically justified. The exact type of
survey undertaken varies with the nature of the study area. Thus the tecliniques
employed on the current property varied substantially from place to place within
the project boundaries while maintaining the basic purpose of the comprehensive
survey-the identification of all significant properties within the delineated
study area.
As described in the Setting, the topography of the project area is'hilly,
containing a series of drainages and ridges. Slopes, particularly in the
northernmost portion exceed 24% with the steep escarpment into San Marcos
Creek marking the general western boundary. Dense plant growth covers
primarily the eastern third of the acreage making transect passage in some
areas difficult to impossible. Ground visibility ranged from excellent
in cleared patches on the west side of Rancho Santa Fe Road and the recently
burned hill and ridge in the southeast corner to poor in open grass-covered
areas, chaparral choked slopes and drainages. Within these areas, the ground
was often not visible. In areas of poor visibility, rodent backdirt piles
and animal trails were inspected for artifactual materials.
Survey spacing varied based on terrain and archaeological sensitivity of the
area. The United States Forest Service and Bureau of Land Management standards
combined with strategies outlined in The Archaeological Survey Methods and
Uses (Kins 1978) were used. These state:
Survey transects of 1-15 meters will be carried out
in flats and stream areas where less than 15% slope
prevails and where archaeological sensitivity is
apt to be high: 15-50 meter transects where slopes
range between 15% and 30% with moderate to low
archaeological sensitivity; and greater than 50
meters transects in areas of extreme slope or
heavy brush cover.
Archival research (i.e. record search data and review of historic maps and
35
m
photographs) , conducted prior to the field reconnaissance, revealed the following:
1. Portions of the entire acreage had been ?
included as parts of previous cultural
resource surveys. Nearly 100% of the
study area had been previously surveyed. P
p I
2. Six sites had been previously recorded
as occurring within the project boundaries.
Five of these sites were associated with P
either San >larcos Creek or the unnamed drainage •
near the southern border.
3. Based on the geologic formation and the ^]
locations of previously recorded sites, P
archaeological sensitivity over the
majority of the acreage was considered ff'
low. P
4. Historic maps and photographs showed
virtually no historic occupation of this ?
acreage. Aerials did show extensive *
disruption primarily on the west side of
Rancho Santa Fe Road: on site inspection p
verified past borrow/pit mining, dumping P
and land topographic alteration. Several
clumps of eucalyptus occurred on the aerials. p
P'
As a result of the preliminary research, survey strategies were developed
to relocate and reassess previously recorded sites, check area of historic use, mT
and identify any previously unrecorded sites. Due to general paucity of P
exposed bedrock, the rocky nature of the ground, and the site-type patterns ^
recorded on similar terrain, sites removed from the two drainages were
expected to include prehistoric quarry areas and/or lithic scatters. Low
density site occurrence in this area was suggested by Kaldenberg (1976): ^
Santiago Peak Volcanics underlie the high ground in
the central and eastern portions of the, property (his ' _
study area included 3,500 acres). The steep walled
San Marcos Canyon has been cut in these volcanic rocks. •
Where San Marcos Creek passess from sedimentary rocks
into the much harder volcanic rocks, the slope of the P
canyon walls increases dramatically. It is from these II
rocks that many of the finely-worked stone tools
present on the archaeological sites of La Costa were
manufactured. Only two sites on the La Costa property T
can presently be located in this soil unit. Site SDM-W-917
is a quarry located north of the deep gorge of San Marcos
Creek. Site SDM-W-943 is a flake scatter situated east of *
Encinitas Creek, Neither of the sites were habitational in P
nature, but were used for production of artifacts...
The present Santiago Peak Metavolcanics geological unit,
then, can be utilized in employing a basic criteria for the P
absence of archaeological site sensitivity. In the areas of
36
La Costa where this geological unit occurs, it
can be expected that only a few archaeological
sites will be located. This potential for
archaeological sensitivity can be modified by the
presence/absence of proximal water sources...
or ground slope,
Kaldenberg 1976:34
The entire west side of the project area was surveyed in 10-15 meter
transects. In those areas that had not been previously disrupted (toward
the western edges) spacing was decreased to 7-10 meters. It was. anticipated
that flake scatters and/or lithic acquisition/reduction areas would be
found. Due to massive disruption and general heavy equipment movement over
this area any evidence of prehistoric lithic reduction had been obliterated.
Survey strategy on the east side of Rancho Santa Fe Road varied. In those
areas that had a higher probability of containing cultural resources or
where visibility was excellent (the unnamed south trending drainage and the
burned hill and ridge line in the southeast). 7-10 meter transects were
maintained. The ground along the ridge/hill is covered with highly weathered
and fractured chunks and nodules of fine to coarse grained metavolcanic
rocks. Areas that contained clusters were carefully inspected for artifactual
material. (Due to a fire, this portion of the study area had the best ground
in visibility). The areas of low elevation along the east were surveyed in
P 15-30 meter transects. Whenever bedrock was observed (little occurs on the
^ property), it was inspected for sign of prehistoric use as milling surfaces.
^ The steep slopes, the majority of which are densely covered with vegetation
were surveyed with approximate 50 meter transects. Careful attention was
mm
paid to possibly locating mine shafts associated with the late 1800's and
early 1900's copper mining activities in the vicinity. Although none had
been mapped on mining maps as occurring in this area, the possibility existed
especially after having encountering the activities in the western area.
In those areas containing previously recorded sites, up to an hour was
spent traversing the mapped location. Further, all areas that contained
introduced trees (a sign of possible historic occupation) were carefully
inspected for foundation remnants and trash disposal areas.

SURVEY RESULTS
tt
Six prehistoric sites were previously recorded as occurring within the
project area. Of these six. three were relocated and reassessed. A fourth J
site was found during the current reconnaissance. Data regarding the
location and .observed cultural material is presented below. Following P^
recommended testing (see Recommendations) at the specified locales, updated *
survey forms, and in the case of the newly discovered site, a new Archaeological jp'
Site Survey form, will be submitted to the San Diego Museum of Man and the P^
South Coastal Information Center. Once the accession number of the newly-
recorded site (referred herein as RSFR #1) is received, it will be forwarded
to the City of Carlsbad for incorporation into this document. Information
on each of the previously recorded sites was obtained from archaeological P
site survey record forms and reports.
P
W-181: This site was recorded by Rogers in the early 1930's jM
as occurring on a hill on the north rim of the north fork of
Encinitas Creek (elevation 325*AMSL). This two acre site
with a i acre concentration was classified as San Dieguito.
It is mapped as ocurring east of Rancho Santa Fe Road and
north of La Costa, In this portion of the study area, a
roughly cresent shaped portion of land is excluded from
the project acreage. This site is mapped as occurring Mi
within this exempt piece and extending into the subject
property (Rogers typically included large, vague expanses m
as site area-more recent surveys better defining the
actual site boundaries). Rogers gave little information *"
regarding this resource other the following: "This is a
very concentrated occupation, probably because the surrounding "
mesa top is very stoney except in this one area...Beginning tt
at W-181 and extending to the west on a general elevation to
W-182 and beyond it to the end of the mesa is continuous P
evidence of SD-II material. This is for a total of 1 3/4 ^
miles. As a matter of fact, there is no part of the

rising knoll approximately 200' north of a spring and west
of oak woodlands. A scraper, possible projectile point
fragment and several pieces of marine shell were noted.
This site contained no evidence of midden soils, artifact
concentrations nor subsurface component. During the current
survey, this knoll was carefully inspected with transect spacing
not exceeding 7 meters. Vegetation is dense in this area and P
several areas have been impacted by dumping and minimal scraping
(apparently to clear area of vegetation to then dump miscellaneous P
construction rubble). No remnants of this site could be located. tt
W-941 This site was also recorded during the Kaldenberg survey
and relocated in 1976. It is located adjacent to a spring
along the unnamed drainage. At the time of original recordation
it was recorded as a shell scatter of indetermined significance.
A reassessment the following year stated that "this site was of only ^
of limited extent and of insignificant value. A very thin
scatter of flakes can be found along the unnamed creek. These
flakes, as with the shell relocated from W-941, provide little f
substantial information of local prehistory". tt
This site was relocated during the current investigation. It P
abuts the creek and oaks and extends along a dirt road adjacent tt
to the spring for approximately 300'. This dirt road crosses
the creek and extends up the hill behind the housing development «
Ground visibility off the dirt road was extremely poor and W
it appears that the portion of the site nearest the creek was •
^|s impacted by the road. Dark midden-like soils containing
5 flakes, small marine shell fragments, two cores and a large P
primary felsite flake were observed in the soil that had been tt
pushed to the side of the road. Recent trash litters the
ground under the oaks and extends into the road. The minimal «
amount of observed cultural debris is intermixed with non- ^
artifactual lithic material. Testing on this site will be *
necessary in order to define exact boundaries, determine the
presence or absence of an intact subsurface component. P
assess the variability and density of cultural material, and
determine the degree of impact/destruction. The location of
this site suggests the possibility of habitation. Two sites
^Q-,n^^ vicinity (W-942 and W-948) were excavated in the mid-
iy/U s: both contained middens and both were dated (W-942
at 4940-70 and W-948 at 7780^90). Testing at W-941 could
result in collecting sufficient datable material to further
define the occupation sequences in this area.

highly possible that this was in fact not a feature. The
bedrock located on the subject property is highly eroded and
tractured, exhibiting extreme weaathering. It is not the
type of bedrock typically used as milling surfaces by the
prehistoric occupants of the area. Bedrock more suitable for
milling activities is found to the north and south of the
project boundaries. A similar problem was recently (1990)

encountered by ERC at sites SDi-11439 and SDi-11440: two sites »
recorded as occurring along the northeast property line.
Survey crew initially recorded these sites as containing P
three basins and 15 slicks respectively. On re-evaluation during
the testing phase it'was-concluded that "the bedrobk griridine
recorded earlier represented naturally weathered depressions
in the bedrock" (Gallegos 1990a:4-34), Two flakes and one shell
fragment were recovered from the surface of SDi-11439 and 1
flake and one core were recovered from SDi-11440: neither
contained a subsurface component. These sites should have *
been recorded as isolates because neither meets the definition
of a "site".

tt
SDi-11569: This site was recorded in 1990 by ERC as occurring
on the south side of San Marcos Creek 350ra west of Rancho
Santa Fe Road on a knoll top. Yucca and Elderberry mark the
site. Visibility is extremsly poor in this area. The site
area vas estimated to be approximately 30m x 40ra, Surveyors
observed 1 unifacially flaked stone tool. 1 core, two metate
fragments, 1 mano fragment and 100 pieces of debitage. During
the current survey, the area described on the resource form
was relocated. However, ground visibility, due to dense grass »
cover was virtually nil. Two possible metate fragments were ^
located. It is highly probable that spring growth haa obscurud
the lithic scatter observed by ERC survey crew. For this ^
reason, a degree of testing is recommended for this site
to determine extent, possibility of a subsurface component, •*
and significance.
m
SDi-11570: This site is immediately across a small seasonal ^
drainage from SDi-11569 and was recorded and tested in 1990 "*
by ERC. A portion of this site extends into the current ^
project area. The main deposit is located on a knoll top
but the artifact scatter extended down a disturbed road cut
the Rancho Santa Fe Road, (During the current survey a single
hammerstone was collected from the road cut) ERC results *
are included as Appendix II of this report. Testing included
the excavation of 17 shovel test probes and 1 unit, site
mapping and collection of surface artifacts. The surface area
was defined as 96 m north/south by 88 m east/west. A maximvm ^
depth of 50cm was achieved. Recovered material included •
86 flakes, 211 fragments of angular waste, 1 possible pendant
fragment. 9 pieces of obsidian, 4 utilized flakes, 3 tool fragments P
10 cores, 5 hammerstones, 5 mano fragments, 4 metate fragments,
1.5 grams of.bone and 1 gram of marine shell. This site area
was relocated during the current survey. The placement of the
shovel probes and unit were visible. However, as with SDi-li569
dense grass cover obscured much of the surface. One felsite"
flake was observed. The site is surrounded by burrow'pits and
dirt roads. Testing of the portion of this site which*extends
into the current project is recommended to verify densities and
boundaries. The portion of the site within the 1-RC project
area was recommended for either preservation ^i.e project P
avoidance and open space easement)or, if not feasible, a data
recovery plan.

RECOMMENDATIONS
The approximate 700 acre study area involves the realignment and
improvement of Rancho Santa Fe Road and mass cut and fill activity on
portions of the surrounding environment by Fieldstone/La Costa Associates.
As a result of the archaeological reconnaissance, four prehistoric cultural
resources were identified as occuring within the Fieldstone/La Costa Associates
property. No cultural resources were located within the area of planned road
expansion. An essential step in cultural resource identification is to jj^
establish the research potential and significance of a given resource. Toward
that end, site-specific recommendations are offerred. P
tt
The concept of significance or importance in archaeology is often a
source of both frustration and confusion. The term "significance" as J
applied to an archaeological site differs in meaning from the CEQA term
"significant project impact" The CEQA definition refers to the degree of •
reource elimination by a permit approved activity, while the former is the
assessment of value to the citizens of California. Section 15082 (Article
7, Chapter 3, Division 6, Title 14 of the California Administrative Code)
reads that:
A project shall be found to have a significant effect
on the environment if a) the project has the potential
to eliminate important examples of major periods of
California history or prehistory.
March 4. 1978, revised edition
In recent literature , Cultural Resource Management professiona:! s have
sought to refine and clarify the questions of significance in response to the
needs of people in local communities, government agencies, industry tjnd
the private sector. The crux of the arguments and concerns about site •
significance evaluation and the decision making process are best illustrated *
by the following summaries: p
The fact that archaeological sites and the information *
they contain are the only clues to much of human life
in the past makes every site potentially significant. P
It is generally recognized, however, that defining tt
significance implies some frame of reference, probable
orientation, geographical, temporal or other context
against which an archaeological site is to be evaluated.
McGirasey and Davis 1977:31
Because the importance of a given resource depends on the ^
context of assessment as well as its inherent qualities, the^e *
can be no universal or absolute measures of cultural wor*-^
P
P
P
tt
P
P
PI
tt
The criteria of significance changes as the research v
goals of arafchaeology evolve and as public interest /
and priorities shift...thus archaeological significance
is both dynamic and relative. •
Grady 1977; Moratto and Kelly 1977
In assessing the potential significance of the four sites located within the
study area, several sets of guidelines and criteria will be used. The guidelines
listed in Appendix K of CEQA Guidelines will be considered. These are:
1) The site is associated with event/person of recognized
scientific importance in prehistory or history;
2) The site can provide information which is both of
demonstrated public interest and useful in addressing
scientifically consequential and reasonable research
questions.
3) The site has a special or particular quality such as
the oldest, best example, largest, or last surviving
example of its kind.
4) The site involves important research questions that
research has shown can be answered only with archaeological
methods.
In addition to the criteria outlined under CEQA, additional focused issues can
be used to measure site significance. These include:
tt 1) Site variability
2) Identification of cultural chronology
3) Indentification of land-use patterns
^ 4) Artifact density/variability
5) Potential for dating
P 6) Potential for fauna/flora analysis
7) Potential for intra and inter site variability-
m
m The recommended initial subsurface testing suggested below for each of the
four identified resources will determine the presence or absence of an in situ
subsurface component, identify surface and subsurface extents of the resource,
as well as address the potential significance of the site. Based on the
results of the initial testing a report will be generated describing methods.
results and final mitigation. If a resource is found to be important, a
data recovery plan (and research design) or avoidance/open space easement
plan would then be developed. The initial testing is prerequisite to
determination of potential significance.

that has been impacted by dumping activities and dirt road
use. Except for the dirt road, surrounding visibility is
extremely poor. Lithics and marine shell were observed in
the road and adjacent dirt piles. This area should be ^
subjected to a series of STPs (Shovel Test Probes) and
unit excavation if a subsurface component is identified
during the STPs. Artifacts located outside the disturbed ^
dirt road bed should be mapped and collected. If enough
marine shell is collected from the subsurface, it should be
submitted for Cj4 dating. Located within an oak woodland
and adjacent to a spring and intermittent drainage, intact
portions of this' site could potentially supply important
data relating to the prehistoric use of the area. These •*
data should be incorporated into the results obtained from m
prior testing of the cluster of sites previously investigated
immediately to the south. an

would involve the digging of a series of STPs, surface tt

one to two standard excavation units. The site is ,^
within an area designated for fill activity.
mm
SDi-11570: This site is also located near the north end
of the project west of Rancho Santa Fe Road. It occurs on
a low knoll directly across from SDi-1156, ERC conducted ^
a surface collection, STP series and one unit excavation
on the portion of the site which extends onto a current m
project that firm is working on. As a result of their
study, they found the site to be important and recommended "*
site avoidance. In order to verify densities and site extent
as indicated in the ERC report, two units should be excavated *
within the portion of the site that extends into the current tt
project. Ultimate mitigation recommendations for that portion
^-rill be based on both the ERC finds and the further testing, p
RSFR #1: This site, located on the west side of Rancho Santa
Fe Road at the subdivision southern boundary, has been
extremely impacted by dumping activities. Without a subsurface ^
investigation it is impossible to ascertain whether the marine *•
shell is in situ or has been transported from another location
during dumping episodes. A series of STPs should be excavated P
throughout the defined area of shell occurrence. If a subsurface
component is identified, one to two excavation units should
be excavated in order to assess potential significance and
develop appropriate final mitigation. This area is scheduled
for cut activities. Thus, the resource will be destroyed.

Debiage
The majority.pf prehistoric artifacts consisted of lithic debitage (N=10) including 5 flakes
and 5 fragments-of angular waste. All of ±e material represents highly patinared fragments
of Santiago Peak Volcanic material. Uttle concx was present, suggesting secondary tool
reduction.
Tools
A total of three tools were recovered from the surface coUection. Artifact SDi-11442-22
represents a small fragment of a black fine-grain metavolcanic core. Flake removal appears
to be multi-directional but the fragment is small and the points of percussion for only two
flakes remain. SDi-l 1442-23 is a utilized secondary flake of porphyritic volcanic material.
The artifact was utilized along two edges and patinkcd nibbling and use-wear are present.
Aitifaa SDi.11442.10 represents a somewhat water Wn core tool. The artifact is made
from a Hght brown fine-grain metavolcanic material and shgws some unifacial retouching.
P Many of the edges showed natural rounding and no use-wear\bservarions were possible
\
Summary \
This site represents a smaU prehistoric Uthic scaner with a secondary deposit of historic
refuse. Prehistoric artifacts at the site suggest a short term camp with lithic t^J producdon
as the inain.,acnvity. No diagnosdc prehistoric artifacts were recovered during'^the testing
program,^but the presence of patination on the artifacts suggests age. Historic'-artifacts
suggeiffduniping of a surface scaner of turn of the century domestic refuse. AlAough
-vi/ence is ciimimstantial the lack of nearby historic structures suggests the possibility\at
lis site may be associated with mining activity at site SDi-9918.
-4.1.10 SDi-llS70
Tins site is located on the south side of San Marcos Creek adjacent and west of Rancho
Santa Fe Road and Southwest of the Rancho Santa Fe Road bridge that crosses San

Testing included the excavation of 17 STPs. 1 test unit, site mapping and coUection of
surface amfacis. Testing identified a subsurface deposit on the western portion of the site
with a maximum depth of 50 cm and a surface area 96 m north/south by 88 m east/west
(see Figure 4-11 and Tables 4-15 and 4-16). A total of 344 artifacts were recovered to
mclude 86 flakes, 211 fagments of angular waste. 1 possible pendant fragment. 9 pieces
of obsidian. 4 utilized flakes, 1 retouched flake, 4 flake tools. 3 tool fagments. 10 cores 1
core tool. 5 hammerstones, 5 mano fragments, 4 metate fragments, 7 pieces (1.5 grams) of
bone, and 2 pieces (1.0 grams) of marine sheU (see Table 4-17 for distribution). No'recent
trash indicating disturbance was recovered. Soils were light brown sandy loam witii some
darker areas possibly indicating discoloration due to cultural activity. Of the 17 STPs
excavated, 10 on the western side of the site had positive results defining a subsurface
deposit approximately 50 by 50 m in size (Table 4-18). Unit 1 identified a subsurface
deposit 40 cm in depth recovering a total of 155 artifacts including 1 retouched flake 2
cores. 2 fragments of groundstone, a possible pendant fragment, and all obsidian aiid
faunal remains recovered at the site (Table 4-19).
Artifact Analysis
Debiage
AS witi, all sites tested within the project area the largest category of cultural material was
^ Muc debitage. TTiis represented 306 artifacts or 88.96 percent of the cultural material
Most of the debitage represented non-diagnostic core reducfion material, but several large
bifacial thinning flakes were noted in the collection. n,e absence of cortex on most of the
inatena^ (see Table 4-20) may be a reflection of the type of source rather than die fact that
the final stages of core or tool reduction occuned on this site. The possibility of primary or
"Tly stage reduction of Uthic material is supported by the relatively even distribution of
flake size shown in Table 4-20. because the final stages of tool production often are
represented by a predominance of small retouching or finishing flakes, and by the laree
amount of cores in the collection as mentioned below. Patination as shown in Tabli 4-21
IS present on only one-half of the Uthic assemblage suggesting use of the site over a period
or time.

Litiiic material types arc shown in Table 4-22 and show a predominance of metavolcanic
material (93.94%), almost all of which is Santiago Peak Volcanic Formation. Less than
five fragments of cobble material from the Eocene sedimentary formation to the west were
noted in the assemblage and quartz represents a minor fraction of the assemblage (2.36%).
Obsidian was also recovered in nainor amounts during subsurface testing. All obsidian was
recovered from Unit 1 and based on hand specimen observation it appears to be from a
source other than Obsidian Butte. Obsidian Butte, located in the Imperial Valley, is the
closest source of obsidian and was heavily used during the Late Period. * The results of
chemical sourcing obsidian from both this site and SDi-7306 are not yet available. Two
fragments of unusual material were noted in the coUection, one fragment (SDi-l 1570-97)
was a light tan granular volcaiuc or quartzite material resembling Piedra del Lumbre chert in
texture. Artifact SDi-11570-125 was another fragment of volcanic material resembling
jasper. The niaterial was dark red and opaque, but thin edges were translucent near a light
source.
Possible Pendant
A small ground stone anifact (SDi-l 1570-66) was recovered from the 20-30 cm level of
Unit 1. This small artifact fragment (0.3 grams) is made from a fine-grain dull black
material resembling slate. Striations produced during shaping are present on all unbroken
edges. The artifact is 1.4 cm long, 0.6 cm wide and 0.2 cm thick and comes to a point at
the unbroken end. The broken end appears to have snapped at a weak point where the
artifact had small groves on both sides. The anifact fragment is so small it cannot be
otherwise identified.
Groundstone
Relatively Uttle groundstone material was recovered from the site and no bedrock outcrops
are within the site to supply a platform for bedrock milling. Groundstone artifacts included
five mano fragments, and four metate fragments. Of the mano fragments, artifacts
SDi-l 1570-73 and SDi-l 1570-86 represent very smaU fragments with no diagnostic
attributes as to total artifact size or form. At least one of these artifacts (SDi-l 1570-86)
represents a cobble base mano.
Artifact SDi-l 1570-145 is the most complete mano fragment in the coUection. It is made
from a granitic cobble and is bifaciaUy worked and shouldered and shows indications of

^ shaping. The artifact was recovered from the surface and is covered by Uchcn. Both faces
of this artifact are pecked. Artifact SDi-l 1570-6 is another cobble-based mano fragment
which was recovered from the 20-30 cm level of STP ON/IOW. Grinding is bifacial and
no pecking is evidcnL The cobble is of a relatively fine-grain porphyritic volcaruc material.
*• Artifact SDi-11570-142, which was recovered from the surface, is a bifacial mano
fragment made from an irregular graiutic rock fragment. One face of the artifact is weU
rounded while the other face, which is very irreguiar, is ground on only the high points.
Of the four metate fragments, two (SDi-11570-48 and SDi-11570-57) represent smaU non-
diagnostic granitic metate fragments recovered from the upper levels of Unit 1. Artifacts
If
SDi-11570-146 and SDi-l 1570-147 represent large unifacial granitic shallow slab type
metate fragments with ground and pecked surfaces.

Hammerstones
J A total of five hanmierstones and harmnerstone fragments were recovered during site
testing. AU hammerstones were made from Santiago Peak metavolcanic material and were
recovered from the surface coUection. Artifact SDi-l 1570-158 represents a hammerstone
with heavy bartering along one edge. Tlie artifact is made from a naturaUy spaUed Segment
of porphyritic metavolcanic material. Artifacts SDi-l 1570-72 and SDi-l 1570-116
represent secondary use of cores as hammerstones. Both artifacts have battering along
^ angular portions of the tool created earUer by removing flakes from a core. Both artifacts
SDi-11570-76 and SDi-l 1570-162 represent small non diagnostic hammerstone fragments.

Cores
All of the nine cores and core fragments recovered during site testing were made from
material derived from the Santiago Peak Volcanic Formation. Seven of these cores showed
unifacial flake removal in one direction (SDi-11570-47. SDi-11570-56, SDi-l 1570-103,
SDi.11570-108. SDi-11570-160. SDi-l 1570-173, and SDi-11570-181). Five of tiiese
•i artifacts were recovered during surface coUection of the site (SDi-l 1570-103, SDi-l 1570-
]^ 108, SDi-l 1570-160, SDi-l 1570-173. and SDi-11570-181) whUe two were recovered
^ from the upper levels of Unit 1 (SDi-11570-47 and SDi-11570-56).
Artifact SDi-l 1570-127, recovered from die surface of die site showed unifacial flake tt
I removal in two directions. Hakes were removed from opposite ends of the artifact
4-58
iiii
Artifact SDi-11570-163 also showed unifacial flake removal in two directions, but these
were opposite sides of peipendicular edges. Artifaa SDi-11570-r7 is a multidirectional
core. It was recovered from the site surface and is highly patinated. Cores in the coUection
reflect primary reduction of Santiago Peak metavolcanic material for the manufacture of
flake and core based tools.
Flaked Lithic Tools
A total of 13 flaked Utiiic tools were recovered from surface and subsurface testing at SDi-
11570. These include 1 core tool, 4 flake based tools, 4 uriUzed flakes, 1 retouched flake
and 3 tool fragments. AU flaked lidiic tools in the coUection were made from material
.dcnved from the Santiago Peak Volcanic Formation and many were highly patinated.
Artifact SDi-l 1570-102, recovered from die surface of the site, is a core based tool witi:
patterned unifacial flake removal along three sides. TTie striMng platform of the artifaa is a
planear surface with no clear evidence of use-wear idenrifymg this as a morphological tool
only.
The four flake based tools were recovered from die surface witii .the exception of artifact
SDi-11570-9 which was recovered from the 10-20 cm level of STP 0N/30W. This artifact
IS a flake fragment witii a series of small flakes removed from one edge. This edge is
highly weatiiered and patinated, but use-wear may have been present at one time. Artifaa
SDi-11570-132 is a retouched flake or core fragment witii primarily unifacial flake
removal. Use-wear is present as a high polish along tiie sharp points of one edge
ArofacB SDi-11570-136 and SDi-l 157M82 are botii similar in that tiiey represent flakes
which have additional flakes removed along one edge. They bod. show edge rounding
related to use-wear.
Three artifaas, all recovered fiom tiie surface, may represent dtiier core base or flake base
tools. Artifaa SDi-11570-118 represents a tool fragrr^ent witi, fine retouching along one
edge TT,e artifact is made from fine-grain green metavolcanic material, but it is heavily
weathered and patinated so tiiat use-wear determination was not possible. Artifaa SDi-
11570-159 represents a very smaU fragment of a tool edge. It may have been removed
dunng tool rejuvenation. Retouching and use-wear are present along die tool edge
Artifaa SDi-11570-148 is a flake or core, based tool fragment witii retouching along two

INTRODUCTION
1.1 PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The following rq>ort presents tiie results of an archaeological literature review, site records
check, historic map check, and field survey of the Land Pac project. This program was
ccmducted by ERC Environmental and Energy Services Company for Land Pac. literature
information and site records on recorded cultural resources witiun a one mile radius of tiie
project area was obtained from data provided by tiie South Coastal Information Center at
San Diego State University and tiie San Diego Museum of Man and copies of historic
USGS maps of the area were checked for historic structures. In addition to the record
search and historic map check, an in-field survey was conducted to identify cultural
resources witiiin the iHoject boundary.
The Land Pac project includes ^proximately 720 acres in tiie Questiiaven area of the Qty
of San Marcos. Califomia figure 1-1). Hie western project boundary is Rancho Santa Fe
J Road witii tiie nortii. east, and south irregular, but contained witiun Sections 20, 29." and
li 32, Township 10 S. Range 3 W. The project is depicted on tiie USGS Rancho Santa Fe
J, 7.5' quadrangle (Figure 1-2).
1.2 ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING
The project area includes a narrow valley formed by San Marcos Creek. Hills surround
tiiis valley on tiie nortii and soutii with tiie largest hill and slopes dominating tiie northem
portion of tiie project area. The hills include botii granitic and volcanic bedrock. Granitic
X bedrock provided prehistoric Native Americans bedrock milling surfaces for tiie processing
IM of plant foods, while volcanic material (Santiago Peak Volcanic Formation) which outcrops
^ in tiie eastem portion of tiie project area provided a source of fine-grained volcanic litiiic
. material for making stone tools. San Marcos Creek provides a pereimial source of water
I with additional seasonal water from small canyon drainages which converge on San
Marcos Creek.
!^ The ridge in tiie northern portion of tiie project area and much of tiie soutii facing slope
^ have been bmshed and planted witii avocado trees. Several other areas in the center of the
jm project have been brushed and a large quarry pit is located in tiie eastem portion of tiie

BACKGROUND DATA
2.1 CULTURAL PREHISTORY
For the past 10.000 years, the area now comprising San Diego County was occupied by
Native Americans. This 10,0(X)-year span is divided into two major archaeologicaily
distinct periods ^arly and Late). The Early Paiod includes two cultural complexes, tiie
San Dieguito and the La Jolla/Pauma. The earliest occupants arc known as die San
Dieguito, who moved to inland and coastal San Diego County areas fiom the east These
people have been chaiactmzed by the use of Santiago Peak Volcanics in tiie manufacture of
large leaf-shaped bi^ces and scraper planes.
La Jolla sites, also witiun tiie Early Period, tend to be located near tiic coast The people
who occupied these sites depended primarily upon marine resources, as well as seed and
vegetable foods. In general, the stone tool technology associated with tiiese people is
primarily cobble-based at coastal La Jolla sites. This refers to the use of locally available
«i coarse-grained Eocene cobbles for stone tool manufacture. Termed Pauma by True (1959),
m iitiand La Jolla sites more closely resemble San Dieguito sites, with finely-made stone
J tools, predominance of grinding in^lements (manos and metates, in particular), and a lack
^ of shellfish remains. The use of the terms La Jolla and Pauma reflects availability of food,
J location of sites, and stone tool material for people occupying different regions of San
Diego County, witiun the same gen«al time period.
4
j, For the past 2000 years, material goods and traits associated with speakers of Yuman
languages fiom the east (Colorado River region) were brou^t into Imperial and San Diego
Jl Counties. Hiis period is identified as tiie Late Period or Late Prehistoric. These Late
Im Period prehistoric material goods and traits include ceramic artifects, small projectile points,
^ obsidian fiom Obsidian Butte, and the practice of cremation.

2.2 PREVIOUS RESEARCH
ERC Environmental and Energy Services Company completed a thorough review of
pertinent site record data and reports from tiie Soutii Coastal Information Center at San
*• Diego State University and tiie San Diego Museum of Man which indicated that three
jp. prehistoric (SDi-7306/W-2379, SDi-7308/W-2381, and SDi-7309AV-2382) and two
U 2-1
historic sites (SDi-4873/W-1115 and SDi-9918/W-3473) were located directiy within tiie
project area and one prehistoric resource (SDi-7307/W-2380) was located adjacent to tiie
project area. These sites were relocated during tiie field survey and arc described in detail
in tiie results section of tius report
Thirty sites were recorded witiun a one mile radius of tiie project area providing an
indication of tiie types of sites present in the region. For discussion, sites witiun a
one mile radius of tiie project area were grouped by type. Tlie majority of recorded sites
do not appear to date to tiie late prehistoric period since tiiey lack characteristic artifacts
such as ceramics, small projectile points and obsidian fiom Obsidian Butte. TTiese 30 sites
include a historic cross witii an adobe base (SDi-4683/W-1082). 4 prehistoric litiiic
quanies (SDi.4495/SDi.449?/W-613. SDi-11004. SDi-llOOS. and W-917).including tiie
Questiiaven quarry site which may have supplied much of tiie flaked litiuc material used in
the area, 13 prehistoric habitation sites (SDi-4396/W-915, SDi-4498/W-659,
SDi-4679/W-1078, SDi-4682AV-1081, SDi-4684/W-1083, SDi-4685AV-1084,'
SDi-4687AV.1086. SDi-508OAV-1223. SDi-5081/W-1224, W-148A. W-191, W-109l!
and W-1649) which include flaked Htiuc tools along witii additional cultural material such
as groundstone and shell indicating multiple activities, 4 Utiuc scatters (SDi-5541AV-1648,
SDi-9772AV-34li, SDi-9847. and W-1085) which include only flaked Utiuc debitage and
tools. 3 shell scatters (SDi^80/W-1079, SDi-4681AV-1080, and SDi-4688), 3 isolated
bedrock milling features (SDi-7128/W.2210. W-1284, and W-2969), and 2 sites witii no
data provided (SDi-4397 and W-1999).
Several cultural resource investigations have been conducted witiiin or directiy adjacent to
the project area. The northeast comer of tiie project was surveyed by Kaldenberg (1975)
during a cultural resource study for Lakeshore Farms Unit One and Hillside Farms.
Eckhardt (1977) conducted a survey fiom tiie water tanks on tiie northem edge of tiie
project area along the banks of San Marcos Creek. Neitiier of tiiese surveys located
cultural resources. WESTEC (1984) conducted a survey in tiie soutiiem portion of tiie
project locating one site (SDi-9918AV-3473). In 1986, Cheever and Gallegos (1986a,
1986b) conducted two surveys witiun tiie project, one in tiie north and tiie other near the
soutiiem boundary. Tlie soutiiem most of tiie two surveys included tiie property surveyed
by WESTEC (1984) and site SDi.9918/W-3473 which was detertmned to not be important
under CEQA (Cheever and Gallegos 1986b). aher portions of the project area were
investigated by Kaldenberg in 1975 and 1976 (Kaldenberg 1976) but portions of tius area
have been resurveyed witii positive results and were reinvestigated during tiie present

project In 1988, Bissell and Raschke summarized some of tiie work conducted in tiiis
region.
Historic maps were checked for the presence of stmctures within the project area. One
structure labeled Ortega is located on a 1889 map of San Diego County drawn by Beasley.
Four stmctures were located witiun tiie project area on tiie 1901 edition of tiie Escondido
15' quadrangle surveyed in 1891 and 1898. One of tiiese structures corresponds to tiie
locatiwi of tiie Ortega Adobe (SDi-4873/W-1115) and anotiier to site Q-S-4. The two otiier
structures indicated on 1901 Escondido quadrangle were not relocated during the field
survey. All four of tiiese stmctures are discussed in Section 3. The 1948 edition of tiie
Rancho Santa Fe 7.5' quadrangle did not identify any structures witiun the project area
altiiough tiie Ortega Adobe (SDi-4873/W-l 115) was still standing at tiiat time.

FIELD METHODS AND RESULTS
3.1 SURVEY METHODS
Intensive field survey of tiie project area was conducted on September 21 timi 27,1989 by
Andrew Pigniolo, Steven H, Briggs. Ed Baker, and Mike Caldwell, Transects over most
of tiie project area were surveyed on foot at intervals between 10 and 15 meters. Steep
slopes (>40 degrees) with dense brush were surveyed using 20 to 40 m winding transects.
All bedrock outcrops witiun the smdy area were carefully checked for bedrock milling
features. Portions of tiie prc^erty which had been previously surveyed (Figure 3-1) by
Cheever and Gallegos (1986a). Cheever and Gallegos (1986b). WESTEC (1984),
Eckhardt (1977), Kaldenberg (1975) were briefly spot checked, which included an
examination of hi^ potential resource areas. Visibility over most of tiie project area was
poor due to a dense cover of avocado leaves and shmb vegetation. These were
occasionally kicked to one side during tiie survey to expose tiie surface smi.
Survey methods en^loyed during tins study conform to guidelines and requirements of tiie
• Society of Califomia Archaeology (King, et al. 1973) and tiiose set fortii by tiie National
J Park Service in tiieir pamphlet "Guidelines for tiie I^paration of Statements on
Environmental Impact on Archaeological Resources" (Scovil, et aL 1972).
3.2 SURVEY RESULTS
Seventeen cultural resources and 11 isolate finds ((3-1-1 tiuu Q-I-11) were located witiun
tiie project area, and two additional sites (SDi-7307AV-2380 and Q-S-5) were located
i outside but adjacent to tiie project area (Figure 3-1). Six of these 19 resources were
te previously recorded (SDi-4873AV-lU5, SDi-7306/W-2379, SDi-7307AV-2380, SDi-
7308/W-238I, SDi-7309/W-2382, and SDi-9918/W-3473) and 13 additional sites (Q-S-1
^ timi Q-S-13) were recorded during tiie present smdy. Of tiie 19 sites identified witiun and
directiy adjacent to the project area, 12 are prehistoric and 6 are historic. Site Q-S-11
contains botii a historic and prehistoric component A discussion on tiie historic and
prehistoric sites are discussed below by site number.

flake was removed, and 1 hammerstone firagment The site is located on the south facing
slope of a ridge and a terrace above an abandoned rock quarry. Graham described the site
as being 150 x 30 m but visibility was poor during the present survey due to heavy brush
and the site may be larger than previously recorded. The majority of the cultunti material is
located on the western side of the site on a flat terrace at the base of the hilL Approximately
10 flaked lithic tools and additional groundstone were identified during tiie present survey

HistOTic Cultural ResoureRs
SDi-4873AV-1115
This is the site of tiie Ortega Adobe. The adobe waUs are still standing under a roof
structure designed to protect tiiem. The adobe is presentiy witiiin a private park and
3-6
landscaping has occuned up to the waUs of the adobe. The site was first recorded by
Kaldenberg as a smaU adobe house witii a wooden roof He noted metal and a few flakes
at the site when it was recorded. Kaldenberg (1976) suggests that the stmcture was built in
1868 by three Frenchman who were mining copper in the area. He also notes that Jose
Morales and Jose Maria Alvarado families occupied the house. The Beasley map compUed
^ in 1889 labels the adobe with the name Ortega. Charies KeUy. an early resident of the area
recaUed that !luan Ortega moved into the house after the Frenchman had left (Kaldenberg
1976).

SDi-9918/W-3473
This site was recorded by Tliesken during the 1984 survey by WESTEC. It is described as
being...
" a historic adit associated with the Encinitas copper deposit which was
1^ worked from 1887 to 1917. The horizontal shafr is approximately 10
meters long. Umbers are strewn at the adit entrance. It is likely that tins
pJ, adit was estabUshed by the Encinitas Copper Company whose major
^ operations were located approximately 1.5 miles south."

Based on an interview with Charles KeUy, Kaldenberg (1976) notes that three Frenclunan
Jl
built and occupied the Ortega Adobe in 1868 and worked a copper mine.
* SDi-9918/W-3473 may be related to these eariy copper e?q)lorations as it is the closest m copper adit to the adobe.
P This site was determined to be unimportant under CEQA (Cheever and Gallegos 1986b)
and was not revisited during the present smdy.
This historic site consists of a concrete foundation, building materials and trash. It is
located approximately 25 m east of Rancho Santa Fe Road on the eastem edge of a smaU
graded and fiUed area. Part of the site is in an eroded guUy whUe the concrete foundation is
nearby in a relatively flat area. A historic cemetery ((J-S-13) is northwest of the site. The
site is approximately 60 m north/south by 40 m east/west and depth of at least 60 cm was
im indicated in an erosion guUy. Features at the site include a concrete foundation and refuse
te
1 3-7
deposit Artifacts include fired adobe brick, many with cement mortar, and one witii the
impressed word "Mexico," bricks, milled lumber. 1950s tiiru recent botties. cans, plastic,
and metal and ceranuc pipe. The stmcture associated witii tiie foundation may have been
graded and the building debris located in the guUy may be remnants that have been covered
by grading activity at tiie site. A structure appears in tiiis area on tiie 1901 USGS
quadrangle. If this site is tiie same, tiien earUer remains may be present in tiie graded
deposit Pepper trees are present south of the site.
Q-S-6
This site consists of a rock caim with no associated artifacts. The feature is probably of
recent or historic origin altiiou^ Uchen is weU estabUshed on tiie rocks and tiie feature is
sUghtiy overgrown by brush. The site is approximately 100 m east of Rancho Santa Fe
Road on a ridge slope near a small bedrock outcrop. Hie site consists of a stacked rock
caim, conical in shape, and approximately 2 meters in diameter and two meters high. No
surface artifacts were observed in tiie area but surface visibiUty was poor due to heavy
brush.
Q-S-12
The site is approximately 1.2 km east of Rancho Santa Fe Road and 250 m soutii of
Questiiaven Road on a ridge slope under a cluster of Eucalyptus trees. It consists of a
stone aUgnment which may represent tiie lower level of a historic rock retaining waU. The
feamre is approximately 5 m nortii/soutii by 10 m east/west No structures are identified on
historic maps and no artifacts were observed.
Q-S-13
This site is a smaU historic cemetery located approximately 5 m east of Rancho Santa Fe
Road and just nortii of Meadow Laik Ranch Road under a row of Eucalyptus trees. Three
wood crosses are present surrounded by a wood fence. The cemetery covers an area
approximately 15 m north/soutii by 10 m east/west Features include tiiree wooden crosses
marking graves and a low wood fence around tiie cemetery. It is reported tiiat tiiere are as
many as 7 burials here dating to just before and after tiie turn of tiie century. The site is
relatively undisturbed although many of tiie markers and part of the fence has been
removed.

Other Historic LocaUties
Two additional structures were identified on early maps witiiin or directiy adjacent to the
project area. One of these stmctures is mapped near Rancho Santa Fe Road in the west
central portion or tiie project area soutii of tiie location of (2-S-4 and Q-S-13. Several
pepper trees were observed in this area but no other evidrace of a structure was observed.
The scale of tiie 1901 15' Escondido quadrangle where this structure is showi is not
adequate to determine if the structure is within the project or just beyond the project
boundary in the industrial complex.
The other structure is also shown on the 1901 15' Escondido quadrangle but is east of the
Ortega adobe on the north side of San Marcos Creek at a major bend. No evidence of a
stmcture was noted during the Eckhardt survey (Eckhardt 1977). The area is presentiy
^ occupied and posted, so access was limited. Again tiie scale of the early map does not
•i aUow for a good determination of stmcture location.

SECTION 4
_j IMPACTS AND MmGATION RECOMMENDATIONS
4.1 IMPACTS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
As suggested by Moratto and KeUy (1976:193-202), tiie significance of archaeological
resources should be assessed is several terms, including research value to the scientist,
educational/aestiietic/cititural value to the commuiuty at large and to Native Americans.
J
jj Scientific importance of a site is not necessarily proportional to tiie number of museum
J quaUty artifacts that a site contains, but to the data that is generated fi^m archaeological
investigation(s) at the site.
Native American significance can include reUgious spiritual feelings/artifacts/features, a
spirimal place, shaman artifacts for spiritual healing, or features such as cairns or rock art
-i (pictographs). ca* places where ceremonies were conducted. In addition, physical remains
M to include cremations and/or burials are significant to Native Americans and these values
J are protected under both State and fedeaal law.
Educational and interpretative value may be derived through either site preservation or a
data recov^ program. In a preserved state, interpretative programs for certain prehistoric
I sites can provide tiie pubUc with a sense of timelessness. as weU as an awareness, which
they may not have experienced. PubUc education through school field trips provides access
*" to Native American sites, within their own communities, to be used to explain how people
Uved, in another time period. In certain cases, various types of sites can be used to show a
•«« r^ge of prehistoric activities to include rock art (pictograph sites); quarry sites, where
X artifacts were manufacmred; miUing stations, where acoms were ground; Mid, Early and
^ Late period viUage camp sites where people Uved f(x over the past 9000 years.
Under State CEQA requirements. Appendix K, Section III an important archaeological
resource is one which:
A, Is associated with an event or person of:
•V 1. Recognized significance in Califonua or American history,
IM or
te
L '••1
2. Recognized scientific importance in prehistory.
B. Can provide information which is both of demonstrable pubUc
interest and useful in addressing scientificaUy consequential and
reasonable or archaeological research questions,
C. Has a special or particular quaUty such as oldest, best example,
largest, or last surviving example of its kind,
D. Is at least 100 years old and possesses substantial stratigraphic
integrity, or
E. Involves important research questions tiiat historical research has
shown can be answered only with archaeological methods.
Of tiie 30 cultural resource sites and isolates located witiiin or immediately adjacent to tiie
project area, 2 are identified as important, 16 as not important, and 12 needing additional
woric to determine site in^Kntance (Table 4-1) under CEQA.
4.2 IMPACTS
Two types of impacts may result from proposed development of tiie project are: direct and
indirect Direct impacts are those associated witii construction and development activities.
Direct impacts may occur to all resources within tiie project area depending on specific
development plans. Indirect impacts are tiiose associated witii increased access to an area
where cultural resources exist which includes botii staging of equipment witiun this area
and increased public access.
43 RECOMMENDATIONS
Sites SDi-9918/W-3473, SDi-7307AV-2380, SDi-7309/W-2382, Q-S.6, Q-S-12 and
isolates Q-I-1 tiiru Q-M 1 do not quaUfy as important under CEQA and tiierefore require no
further archaeological investigation. Sites SDi-4873/W-1115 and Q-S-13 represent
important culmrai resources under CEQA criteria and impacts to tiiese resources wiU
require mitigation. Sites SDi-7306/W-2379, SDi-7308/W-2381, Q-S-1, Q-S-2, Q-S-3,

Q-S.4. Q-S-5. Q-S-7, Q-S-8, Q-S-9. Q-S-10. and Q-S-11 require testing to detennine site
in^XMtance under CEQA. The goals of tius testing program include determining site
size, deptii. content, integrity, and potential of tiie site(s) to address important research
questions. More specificaUy, if impacts wiU occur, testing of sites SDi-7306/W-2379,
Q-S-3. and Q-S-11 should include a shovel test pit (STP) series excavated at 10 to 20 m
intervals in perpendicular axes across tiie site area to identify and define subsurface
deposits, and if a subsurface deposit is present, tiie excavation of between 1 and 2
intuitively placed 1 x 1 m test units, and surface coUection as necessary. Surface brushing
witii a smaU backhoe under tiie supervision of a quaUfied archaeologist may be necessary in
certain areas.
Testing of sites Q-S-1, Q-S-2, Q-S-4, Q-S.5. Q-S-7, Q-S-S, Q-S-9, and Q-S-10, should
include excavation of intuitively place STPs, and if necessary a single 1 x 1 m test unit,
recordation of features, surface coUection of artifacts and data analysis,
4,4 SUMMARY
Thirty cultural resources are identified witiiin or adjacent to tiie project area. Sites
SDi-4873/W-l 115 and Q-S-13 are identified as important cuimral resources and as such,
need to be addressed as to impacts and mitigation of impacts. Twelve sites
SDi-7306/W-2379, SDi.7308/W-2381. Q-S-l. Q-S-2, Q-S-3, Q-S-4, Q-S-5, Q-S-7,'
Q-S-8. Q-S-9, Q-S-10, and Q-S-11, require testing to determine site importance under
CEQA.
The identification of sites SDi-9918/W-3473, SDi-7307/W-2380, SDi-7309/W-2382,
Q-S-6, and Q-S-12 and isolates Q-M timi Q-I-11 as not important cultural resources!
precludes tiie need to address impacts or mitigation of impacts as per CEQA, amended
