Resort View Project
Executive Summary
Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon) was retained by Foxlin Architects on behalf of BNR Investments &
Development to conduct a Phase I cultural resources assessment and extended Phase I (XPI) survey
for the Resort View Project (project), in the city of Carlsbad, San Diego County, California. This
report has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
guidelines and the City of Carlsbad guidelines. The proposed project consists of the construction of
multi-family residential units that are similar to the surrounding land use. The project entails the
construction of 26 residential units in five separate residential buildings on a vacant site. The project
site is an approximately 1-acre lot located at 7551 Viejo Castilla Way in Carlsbad, San Diego County,
California.
One cultural resource, CA-SDl-702, was identified on the project site as a result of the records
search and an additional eight prehistoric resources were previously recorded within a 0.5-mile
radius of the project site. Rincon and Saving Sacred Sites completed a pedestrian survey of the
project site and CA-SDl-702 was not relocated. Rincon recommended that an XPI survey take place
to ascertain if a subsurface component of CA-SDl-702 is present on the project site. Rincon
archaeologists and Saving Sacred Sites Native American monitors completed the excavation of 10
shovel test pits (STPs) to explore the potential for buried cultural deposits within the project site. No
surface or subsurface cultural resources deposits were identified during the XPI survey.
Based on the results of the current study, Rincon recommends a finding of less than significant
impact to archaeological and historical resources with mitigation incorporated under CEQA. The
following measures are recommended in the event cultural resources are encountered during
project-related ground disturbance.
Worker's Environmental Awareness Program
A qualified archaeologist should be retained to conduct a Worker's Environmental Awareness
Program (WEAP) training on archaeological sensitivity for all construction personnel prior to the
commencement of any ground-disturbing activities. The training should be conducted by an
archaeologist who meets or exceeds the Secretary of Interior's Professional Qualification Standards
for archaeology (National Park Service [NPS] 1983). Archaeological sensitivity training should include
a description of the types of cultural material that may be encountered, cultural sensitivity issues,
regulatory issues, and the proper protocol for treatment of the materials in the event of a find.
Unanticipated Discovery of Cultural Resources
If archaeological resources are encountered during ground-disturbing activities, work in the
immediate area should be halted and an archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior's
Professional Qualification Standards for archaeology (NPS 1983) should be contacted immediately
to evaluate the find. If necessary, the evaluation may require preparation of a treatment plan and
archaeological testing for California Register of Historic Resources (CRHR) and National Register of
Historic Places (NRHP) eligibility. If the discovery proves to be CRHR eligible and cannot be avoided
2
C
Executive Summary
by the project, additional work, such as data recovery excavation, may be warranted to mitigate any
significant impacts to historical resources.
Human Remains
The discovery of human remains is always a possibility during ground-disturbing activities. If human
remains are found, the state of California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states that no
further disturbance shall occur until the county coroner has made a determination of origin and
disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. In the event of an unanticipated
discovery of human remains, the county coroner must be notified immediately. If the human
remains are determined to be prehistoric, the coroner will notify the Native American Heritage
Commission, which will determine and notify a most likely descendant (MLD). The MLD shall
complete the inspection of the site and provide recommendations for treatment to the landowner
within 48 hours of being granted access.

1 Introduction
Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon) was retained by Foxlin Architects on behalf of BNR Investments &
Development to conduct a Phase I cultural resources assessment and extended Phase I (XPI) survey
for the Resort View Project (project), in the city of Carlsbad, San Diego County, California. This
report has been prepared in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
guidelines and the City of Carlsbad guidelines.
The proposed project consists of the construction of multi-family residential units that are similar to
the surrounding land use. The project entails the construction of 26 residential units in five separate
residential buildings on a vacant site. The two buildings in the southern portion of the site adjacent
to the La Costa Golf Course would be three stories and would each be three 3-bedroom townhome
units with a total floor area of 6,882 square feet and 6,801 square feet. The two central buildings
would each consist of six 3-bedroom units and would have 9,230 square feet and 9,274 square feet
of floor area. The central buildings would have three levels of living space over one level of parking
and amenity space, which includes a proposed gym and lobby for residential use. The fifth building
would be located in the northern portion of the project site and would have 10,323 square feet of
floor area consisting of four 1-bedroom unit, one 2-bedroom unit, and three 3-bedroom units.
The proposed project site is an approximately 1-acre lot located at 7551 Viejo Castilla Way In
Carlsbad, San Diego County, California (Figures 1 and 2). The site is surrounded on all sides by
residential development with Viejo Castillo Way directly bordering the site to the east. The site is on
Assessor Parcel Numbers (APN) 216-170-1500 and 216-170-1400; the coordinates of the center
point are 33.088195 N, -117.25193 W. This parcel is depicted in Township 12 South, Range 4 West,
Section 36 (San Bernardino baseline and meridian) of the U.S. Geological Survey {USGS) Encinitas,
California 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle (Figure 1).

2 Regulatory Setting
This section includes a discussion of the applicable federal, state, and local laws, ordinances,
regulations, and standards governing cultural resources, which must be adhered to before and
during implementation of the proposed project.
2.1 State
CEQA requires a lead agency determine whether a project may have a significant effect on historical
resources (Public Resources Code [PRC], Section 21084.1). A historical resource is a resource listed
in, or determined to be eligible for listing, in the California Register of Historical Resources (CRHR), a
resource included in a local register of historical resources or any object, building, structure, site,
area, place, record, or manuscript that a lead agency determines to be historically significant (State
CEQA Guidelines, Section 15064.S[a][l-3]).
A resource shall be considered historically significant if it:
1) Is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad patterns of
California's history and cultural heritage;
2) Is associated with the lives of persons important in our past;
3) Embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, region, or method of construction,
or represents the work of an important creative individual, or possesses high artistic values;
or
4) Has yielded, or may be likely to yield, information important in prehistory or history.
In addition, if it can be demonstrated that a project will cause damage to a unique archaeological
resource, the lead agency may require reasonable efforts be made to permit any or all of these
resources to be preserved in place or left in an undisturbed state. To the extent that resources
cannot be left undisturbed, mitigation measures are required (PRC, Section 21083.2[a], [b], and [c]).
PRC, Section 21083.2(g) defines a unique archaeological resource as an archaeological artifact,
object, or site about which it can be clearly demonstrated that, without merely adding to the
current body of knowledge, there is a high probability that it:
8
1) Contains information needed to answer important scientific research questions and that
there is a demonstrable public interest in that information;
2) Has a special and particular quality such as being the oldest of its type or the best available
example of its type; or
3) Is directly associated with a scientifically recognized important prehistoric or historic event
or person.

Natural and Cultural Setting
3 Natural and Cultural Setting
3.1 Natural Setting
The project site is located in the city of Carlsbad in the northern San Diego County approximately
3.58 miles (5. 75 Kilometers) east of the Pacific Ocean and within the Carlsbad watershed. The
project site consists of a largely flat and vacant lot surrounded by development to the north, west,
and east, and a golf course to the south. Two dominant vegetation communities exist on the project
site: disturbed scrub oak chaparral, and disturbed habitat. Wildlife includes jack rabbits, lizards (e.g.,
western fence lizard, southern alligator lizard), ground squirrels, raptors (e.g., red-tailed hawk, red-
shouldered hawk) and rattlesnakes.
3.1 . 1 Paleoenvironment
Since the onset of the Holocene era approximately 10,000 years ago, environmental conditions have
changed rapidly influencing the distribution of flora and fauna in the region. These changes in
paleoenvironmental conditions likely influenced the cultural groups who occupied the San Diego
region throughout the prehistoric period.
Fast paced sea level rise during the transition from the terminal Pleistocene to the early Holocene
caused the paleocoastal landscape to transform significantly, shifting the shoreline eastward and
inundating valley floors (Byrd 1996). Sea levels during this time rose by approximately 100 feet (30
m), creating steep and narrow bays (Byrd 1996). Prehistoric settlement of the San Diego River Valley
has been documented as early as 7000 years ago with prehistoric groups seeking out alternative
resources outside of those found in coastal areas (Gallegos 1992).
Palynological studies conducted near Las Pulgas Canyon in north San Diego County, indicate that
considerable changes in local plant communities have occurred over the last 4,000 years. These
changes tend to be associated with a gradual transition from a wetter climate to a much drier
climate (Anderson 1996). Since the arrival of Europeans to southern California, there has been an
influx of non-native species that have replaced many indigenous plant communities.
Changes to the paleoenvironment during the Holocene influenced the regional availability of flora
and fauna available to prehistoric groups. Ongoing archaeological research has actively explored the
relationship between resource availability and human adaptive responses (Arnold 2001; Gallegos
2002; Raab and Larson 1997; Redman 1999). It has been suggested that as resource availability
began to fluctuate, some groups may have migrated from the coast to the interior, settling in the
inland valleys and mountain areas. Seasonal availability of resources likely also influenced
settlement patterns in San Diego County.
3.2 Cultural Setting
The cultural setting for the project is presented broadly in three overviews: Prehistoric,
Ethnographic, and Historic. The prehistoric and historic overviews describe human occupation
Phase I Pedestrian and Extended Phase I Survey Report 9
(
C
BNR Investments & Development
Resort View Project
before and after European contact, while the ethnographic overview provides a synchronic
"snapshot" of traditional Native American culture.
3.2. l Prehistory
The project site lies in what is generally described as California's Southern Bight (Byrd and Raab
2007). This region extends from the Mexican border to Santa Monica and includes Orange and San
Diego counties, western Riverside County, and the Southern Channel Islands. At European contact,
the region was occupied by the Tongva, Juaneno, Luiseno, Cupeno and Kumeyaay (lpai and Tipai).
For the purposes of this study, the prehistoric cultural chronology for the Southern Bight is
presented following Byrd and Raab (2007), who have divided the chronology into the Early (9600-
5600 BCE), Middle (5600-1650 BCE), and Late (1650 BCE-1769 CE) Holocene.
3.2.2 Early Holocene (ca. 9600-5600 BCE)
Evidence of Paleo-Indian occupation of southern California remains very limited. Approximately 75
sites on the southern and central California coast are known that date to 7,500 years before present
(B.P.; Erlandson and Colten 1991). The earliest accepted dates for human occupation of the
California coast are from the Northern Channel Islands, off the Santa Barbara coast. Daisy Cave,
located on San Miguel Island, dates to as early as 9,600 BCE (Erlandson et al. 1996). At the Arlington
Springs site on Santa Rosa Island human remains yielded a date of approximately 10,000 BCE
(Johnson et al. 2002). San Diego and Orange counties and the Southern Channel Islands have not
produced dates as early as these. However, radiocarbon evidence has dated early occupation of the
coastal region between circa (ca.) 8,000 and 7,000 BCE (Byrd and Raab 2007).
Traditional models describe California's first inhabitants as big-game hunters roaming North
America during the end of the last Ice Age. As the Ice Age came to a close, warmer and drier climatic
conditions are thought to have created wide-spread cultural responses. The pluvial lakes and
streams in the desert interior began to wane and cultures dependent on these water sources
migrated to areas with moister conditions, such as the southern California coast (Byrd and Raab
2007).
The San Dieguito Complex is a well-defined cultural response to these changing climatic conditions
in the southern California coastal region and was originally named for the cultural sequence in
western San Diego County (Rogers 1929, 1939). Leaf-shaped points and knives, crescents, and
scrapers characterize the artifact assemblages throughout the region (Byrd and Raab 2007). San
Dieguito sites generally show evidence of the hunting of various animals, including birds, and
gathering of plant resources (Moratto 2004).
Middle Holocene { ca. 5600-1650 BCE)
The Middle Holocene is generally viewed as a time of cultural transition. During this time, the
cultural adaptations of the Early Holocene gradually altered. Use of milling stone tools began to
appear across most of central and southern California around 6,000-5,000 BCE, indicating a focus on
the collection and processing of hard-shelled seeds. Environmental changes in the Southern Bight
are thought to have been the key factor in these changing adaptations (Byrd and Raab 2007).
Occupation patterns indicated semi-sedentary populations focused on the bays and estuaries of San
Diego and Orange counties, with shellfish and plant resources as the most important dietary
components (Warren 1968). In the San Diego area, this adaptive strategy is known as the La Jolla
complex.
10
,-.
l
Natural and Cultural Setting
Sometime around 4,000 years ago, extensive estuarine silting began to cause a decline in shellfish
and thus a depopulation of the coastal zone. Settlement shifted to river valleys, and resource
exploitation focused on hunting small game and gathering plant resources (Warren 1968; Byrd and
Raab 2007).
Late Holocene (ca. 1650 BCE-1769 CE)
The Late Holocene witnessed numerous cultural adaptations. The bow and arrow was adopted
sometime after 500 CE, and ceramics appeared in the area ca. 1000 CE. Populations were sustained
by food surpluses, especially acorns (Byrd and Raab 2007; Kroeber 1925). Other exploited food
resources include shellfish, fish, small terrestrial mammals, and small-seeded plants. Settlement
patterns of the Late Holocene are characterized by large residential camps linked to smaller
specialized camps for resource procurement (Byrd and Raab 2007).
3.2.3 Ethnographic Overview
The Luisefio occupied territory along the coast between Aliso Creek and Agua Hedionda Creek that
extended inland to Santiago Peak in the north and the east side of Palomar Mountain in the south,
including Lake Elsinore and the Valley of San Jose (Bean and Shipek 1978). The population of the
Luisefio prior to the arrival of Europeans is believed to be approximately 3,500 (O'Neil 2002).
The Luisefio language belongs to the Cu pan group of the Takic subfamily of languages (previously
known as Southern California Shoshonean), along with their northern and eastern neighbors, the
Gabrielino and Cahuilla (Bean and Shipek 1978). The Takic subfamily is part of the Uta-Aztecan
language family and its origins lie in the Great Basin (Driver 1969). The language of their southern
neighbors, the lpai, is part of the Yu man family of languages, which is related to languages spoken
throughout the southwest. Linguistic studies suggest that Takic-speaking immigrants from the Great
Basin displaced Hokan speakers sometime after 500 BCE. Unsurprisingly, the Luisefio cultural
practices were similar to other speakers of Takic languages, though they did have some things in
common with their lpai neighbors (Bean and Shipek 1978).
Luisefio social structure was more rigid than other Takic-speaking groups, possibly in part because of
a higher population density. They were strongly patrilineal and resided in permanent villages of
between a few dozen to several hundred people, each of which was politically independent and
claimed its own territory, including seasonal camps. In the smaller villages, most residents belonged
to a single lineage while in the larger settlements one lineage was dominant but families of many
clans were present. Ties between villages were maintained through various economic, religious, and
social networks (Bean and Shipek 1978).
Father Boscana, a priest at Mission San Juan Capistrano, recorded his observations of the natives
and left a most valuable work. Kroeber (1925) describes Boscana's "Chinigchinich" as "the most
intensive and best written account of the customs and religion of any group of California Indians in
the mission days." Kroeber describes the Juanefio as having well-developed religious, ritualistic, and
social customs. The center of the Luisefio religion was Chinigchinich, the last of a series of heroic
mythological figures. The heroes were originally from the stars and the sagas told of them formed
Luisefio religious beliefs. Initiation rites during puberty were practiced for both boys and girls,
including a hallucinogenic journey in seach of a spirit guide for boys and days of fasting in a heated
pit for girls. Luisefio cremated and buried their dead.
Plant foods were by far the largest part of the traditional diet, with acorns representing the most
important staple item (Bean and Shipek 1978). In part because of this, villages were located near
Phase I Pedestrian and Extended Phase I Survey Report ll

reliable water sources, as large quantities of water were necessary to process acorn products. The
Luisei'io ate a wide variety of other plant foods, including grasses, seeds, cactus fruits, yucca, bulbs,
roots, tubers, mushrooms, and other items. The Luisei'io also hunted and trapped game animals
such as deer, rabbit, and birds. The sea was a very important source of protein, possibly providing
up to 60 percent of the diet for coastal villages (White 1962). The Luisei'io caught sea mammals and
fish, and gathered shellfish such as abalone, mussels, clams, and scallops.
3.2.4 Historic Overview
The post-Contact history of California is generally divided into three periods: the Spanish period
(1769-1822), the Mexican period (1822-1848), and the American period (1848-present). These
historical periods are described below.
Spanish Period (1769-1822)
Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo in 1542 led the first European expedition to observe what is now called
southern California. That year, he landed on Point Loma, approximately 32 kilometers (km) (20
miles) from the proposed project site. For more than 200 years, Cabrillo and other Spanish,
Portuguese, British, and Russian explorers sailed the Alta (upper) California coast and made limited
inland expeditions, but they did not establish permanent settlements (Bean 1968; Rolle 2003).
Gaspar de Portola and Franciscan Father Junipero Serra established the first Spanish settlement in
Alta California at Mission San Diego de Alcala in 1769. This was the first of 21 missions erected by
the Spanish between 1769 and 1823. The Mission San Diego de Alcala and its associated presidio
were initially built near the Kumeyaay village of Cosoy, near the present site of Old Town. However,
the water supply at this location was lacking and the soil was not very fertile. Thus the mission was
moved in 1774 to its present location, near the Kumeyaay village of Nipaguay (Mission San Diego
2013; City of San Diego 2006). In 1789, Father Fermin Francisco de Lasuen founded Mission San Luis
Rey de Francia, approximately 19 km (12 miles) from the proposed project site. The missions were
responsible for developing relationships with local Native American groups and converting the
population to Christianity (Engelhardt 1927a). Diseases brought by Europeans, however, greatly
reduced the Native American population.
During the Mission period, Spain deeded ranchos to prominent citizens and soldiers, though very
few in comparison to those deeded following Mexican Period. Presidio commandants were given
the authority to grant house lots and garden plots to soldiers, and sometime after 1800, soldiers
and their families began to move towards the base of Presidio Hill to receive land grants from the
presidio commandants (City of San Diego 2006). To manage and expand their herds of cattle on
these large ranchos, colonists enlisted the labor of the surrounding Native American population
(Engelhardt 1927b).
Mexican Period (1822-1848)
The Mexican period commenced when news of the success of the Mexican Revolution (1810-1821)
against the Spanish crown reached California in 1822. This period was an era of extensive interior
land grant development and exploration by American fur trappers west of the Sierra Nevada
Mountains. The California missions declined in power and were ultimately secularized in 1834. By
1835, the presidio and Mission San Diego de Alcala had been abandoned and lay in ruins (City of San
Diego 2006). News of secularization reached Mission San Luis Rey in 1835 and it came under the
control of secular administrators, many of whom gained title to mission lands (Hebert 1961; Mission
12
Natural and Cultural Setting
San Luis Rey 2014). Pio and Andres Pico gained ownership of Rancho Santa Margarita y las Flores
after secularization, a property that is adjacent to the project site on the northwest (Hebert 1961).
The Mexican government recognized the newly established Pueblo of San Diego in 1834. The pueblo
did not fare as well as other California towns during the Mexican period. Secularization of the
missions caused increased hostilities by Native Americans against the Californios living in San Diego
County during the late 1830s. Attacks on outlying ranchos and an unstable political and economic
climate caused the pueblo's population to drop from approximately 500 to 150 permanent residents
by 1840. In 1838, San Diego was demoted from pueblo status and made a sub-prefecture of the Los
Angeles Pueblo (City of San Diego 2006).
American Period (1848-Present)
The American period in San Diego County began as early as 1846 when the United States (U.S.)
military occupied San Diego and effectively ended California resistance in 1847. The American
government assumed formal control of Alta California with the signing of the Treaty of Guadalupe
Hidalgo in 1848, in which the U.S. agreed to pay Mexico $15 million for the territory that included
California, Nevada, Utah, and parts of Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, and Wyoming.
During the early American period, cattle ranches dominated much of Southern California, although
droughts and population growth resulted in farming and urban professions supplanting ranching
through the late nineteenth century. After the U.S. took control of San Diego in 1846, the political
and economic situation stabilized and population increased. The discovery of gold in northern
California in 1848 led to the California Gold Rush, which resulted in a massive population increase
(Guinn 1977). By 1853, the population of California exceeded 300,000. Thousands of settlers and
immigrants continued to pour into the state, particularly after the completion of the
transcontinental railroad in 1869. By the 1880s, the railroads had established networks throughout
southern California, resulting in fast and affordable shipment of goods, as well as means to
transport new residents (Dumke 1944).
San Diego County
San Diego County was organized formally in February of 1850 and grew slowly during the 1860s. The
mid-1800s saw the urbanization of San Diego thanks to the development and promotion of the area
by Alonzo Horton, who offered free lots to anyone who would build a house worth $500. The Santa
Fe Railroad began construction in 1880, with the first trains arriving in 1882. After several
population booms, San Diego reached 35,000 residents in 1888. The population fell to 17,000 in
1890 because of a real estate market crash (City of San Diego 2006).
The twentieth century brought further development to San Diego. John D. Spreckels launched a
major building campaign to modernize the city. Summer cottage retreats began to develop in the
seaside communities of Ocean Beach and La Jolla. Improvements in public transportation allowed
development to spread to the areas of University Heights, Greater North Park, and Mission Hills. In
1915, the Panama-California Exposition was held in San Diego in celebration of the opening of the
Panama Canal (City of San Diego 2006).
During the 1920s, San Diego's population grew from 74,683 to 147,897, due to the Panama-
California Exposition and efforts to attract the U.S. Navy to San Diego. The naval and military
presence provided the population and economy that allowed the city further development (City of
San Diego 2006). San Diego County continues to be an important military center, and as one of the

4.1 California Historical Resources Information System
On October 31, 2018, Rincon conducted a records search of the California Historical Resources
Information System (CHRIS) at the South Coastal Information Center (SCIC) located at San Diego
State University. The search was conducted to identify previous cultural resources studies and
previously recorded cultural resources within a 0.5-mile radius of the project site. The CHRIS search
included a review of the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), the California Register of
Historical Resources (CRHR), the California Points of Historical Interest list, the California Historical
Landmarks list, the Archaeological Determinations of Eligibility list, and the California State Historic
Resources Inventory list.
4.1 . 1 Previous Studies
The record search completed at the SCIC identified ten previously conducted studies within 0.5-mile
radius of the project site (Table 1). Two studies, SD-00726 and SD-09573, include a portion of the
project site.

Background Research
4.2 Native American Heritage Commission
As part of the process of identifying cultural resources within or near the project site, Rincon
contacted the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) to request a review of the Sacred
Lands File (SLF). On November 26, 2018, the NAHC emailed a response to Rincon, stating the SLF
search had been completed with negative results. The NAHC provided a list of 12 individuals and
tribal groups to contact regarding the project. On November 30, 2018, Rincon mailed letters to the
remaining individuals requesting information. As of December 19, 2018, Rincon has not received any
responses to these letters. Native American outreach documents, including letters mailed and the
results of the SLF, are included in Appendix B of this report.
4.3 Historical Maps and Aerial Imagery
Historic aerial imagery was available for the project site online (Historic Aerials n.d.). Rincon
reviewed imagery from 1947, 1953, 1964, 1967, 1980, 1981, 1990, 1994, 1996, 1997, 2002, 2003,
2005, 2009, 2010, 2012, and 2014. The project site has not been developed previously, but does
appear to have been graded and grubbed over time.

5 Methods
5.1 Pedestrian Survey Methods
Rincon field director Breana Campbell-King and archaeologist Mark Strother and Native American
monitors Banning Taylor and Alii Suiaunoa of Saving Sacred Sites conducted a pedestrian survey of
the project site on December 12, 2018. Rincon and Saving Sacred Sites staff examined exposed
ground surface for artifacts (e.g., flaked stone tools, tool-making debris, stone milling tools,
ceramics, fire-affected rock), ecofacts (marine shell and bone), soil discoloration that might indicate
the presence of a cultural midden, soil depressions, and features indicative of the former presence
of structures or buildings (e.g., standing exterior walls, postholes, foundations) or historic debris
(e.g., metal, glass, ceramics). Ground disturbances such as burrows and drainages were visually
inspected. The archaeologist photographed the project site using a digital camera and recorded data
on standard archaeological field forms. All field notes, photographs, and records related to the
current study are on file at the Rincon Carlsbad, California, office.
5.1 .1 Results
Ground visibility was good (roughly 40 to 60 percent) throughout the project site (Figures 4 and 5).
Gravel was noted along the eastern edge of the project site and modern refuse was scattered on the
project site. Dense vegetation was noted on the southern edge of the project site and fro the
northwest corner of the project site to the center of the project site. The southwest corner of the
project site is elevated roughly five feet above the rest of the project site. No cultural resources
were identified within the project site during the survey effort.

5.2 Extended Phase I
Due to the positive record search results and the density of cultural resources in the vicinity of the
project site, an XPI was completed to explore the potential for buried cultural deposits within the
project site. Rincon field director Breana Campbell-King and archaeologist Mark Strother and Native
American monitors Banning Taylor and Alii Suiaunoa of Saving Sacred Sites conducted an XPI of the
project site on December 12, 2018.
5.2.1 Methods
The XPI survey consisted of excavating 10 shovel test pits (STPs) with a diameter of 30-50
centimeters (cm) spaced between 10 and 20 meters apart within the project site (Figure 6). The
STPs were excavated in 20 cm, arbitrary levels and excavated soils from each STP were screened
through 3-millimeter (1/8 inch) wire mesh screen. STP forms were completed to record all data
recovered and observations made, including the depths of recovered materials and soil descriptions
and are available upon request. Rincon excavated each STP to a minimum depth of 40 cm. All STPs
were backfilled after excavation.
5.2.2 Results
A total of 10 STPs were excavated as part of the XPI. All STPs were sterile for cultural resources. In
order to get a sense of the subsurface conditions, STPs 1, 2, and 3 were excavated until a soil change
was encountered. Table 3 provides a summary of the STPs including soils and disturbances
encountered. A representative STP is depicted in Figure 7.

6 Conclusions and Recommendations
One cultural resource, CA-SDl-702, was identified on the project site as a result of the records
search and an additional eight prehistoric resources were previously recorded within a 0.5-mile
radius of the project site. Rincon and Saving Sacred Sites completed a pedestrian survey of the
project site and CA-SDl-702 was not relocated. Rincon recommended an XPI survey to ascertain if a
subsurface component of CA-SDl-702 is present on the project site. Rincon and Saving Sacred Sites
completed the excavation of 10 STPs to explore the potential for buried cultural deposits within the
APE. No surface or subsurface cultural resource deposits were identified during the XPI survey.
Based on the results of the current study, Rincon recommends the following measures in the event
cultural resources are encountered during project-related ground disturbance.
6.1 Worker's Environmental Awareness Program
Retain a qualified archaeologist to conduct a Worker's Environmental Awareness Program (WEAP)
training on archaeological sensitivity for all construction personnel prior to the commencement of
any ground-disturbing activities. The training should be conducted by an archaeologist who meets
or exceeds the Secretary of Interior's Professional Qualification Standards for archaeology (National
Park Service [NPS] 1983). Archaeological sensitivity training should include a description of the types
of cultural material that may be encountered, cultural sensitivity issues, regulatory issues, and the
proper protocol for treatment of the materials in the event of a find.
6.2 Unanticipated Discovery of Cultural Resources
If archaeological resources are encountered during ground-disturbing activities, work in the
immediate area should be halted and an archaeologist meeting the Secretary of the Interior's
Professional Qualification Standards for archaeology (NPS 1983) should be contacted immediately
to evaluate the find. If necessary, the evaluation may require preparation of a treatment plan and
archaeological testing for CRHR and NRHP eligibility. If the discovery proves to be CRHR eligible and
cannot be avoided by the project, additional work, such as data recovery excavation, may be
warranted to mitigate any significant impacts to historical resources.
6.3 Human Remains
The discovery of human remains is always a possibility during ground-disturbing activities. If human
remains are found, the state of California Health and Safety Code Section 7050.5 states that no
further disturbance shall occur until the county coroner has made a determination of origin and
disposition pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 5097.98. In the event of an unanticipated
discovery of human remains, the county coroner must be notified immediately. If the human
remains are determined to be prehistoric, the coroner will notify the Native American Heritage
Commission, which will determine and notify a most likely descendant (MLD). The MLD shall
complete the inspection of the site and provide recommendations for treatment to the landowner
within 48 hours of being granted access.

RE: Cultural Resources Study for the Resort View Project, San Diego County.
Dear Ms. Campbell-King:
A record search of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File (SLF) was
completed for the information you have submitted for the above referenced project. The results were
negative. However, the absence of specific site information in the SLF does not indicate the absence of
cultural resources in any project area. Other sources of cultural resources should also be contacted for
information regarding known and recorded sites.
Attached is a list of Native American tribes who may also have knowledge of cultural resources in the
project area. This list should provide a starting place in locating areas of potential adverse impact within
the proposed project area. I suggest you contact all of those indicated; if they cannot supply information,
they might recommend others with specific knowledge. By contacting all those listed, your organization
will be better able to respond to claims of failure to consult with the appropriate tribe. If a response has
not been received within two weeks of notification, the Commission requests that you follow-up with a
telephone call or email to ensure that the project information has been received.
If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify me. With
your assistance we are able to assure that our lists contain current information. If you have any questions
or need additional information, please contact me at my email address: katy.sanchez@nahc.ca .gov.
Sincerely,
Katy Sanchez

Subject: Cultural Resources Study for the Resort View Development Project, Carlsbad, California
Dear Chairperson Goff:
Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon) has been retained to conduct a cultural resources study for the Resort
View Development Project (project) in Carlsbad, California. The proposed project involves the
construction of 19 residential units in 5 buildings. Buildings A and B would have 2 units with attached
garages; Buildings C and D, 4 units with attached garages; Building E, 7 units with garages and "tucked-
under" parking. The approximately one-acre project site is located at 7551 Viejo Castilla Way in Carlsbad,
California. The project site is currently vacant and surrounding land uses consist of multi-family residential
buildings. The project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
As part of the process of identifying cultural resources for this project, Rincon contacted the Native
American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and requested a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and a list of Native
American tribal organizations and individuals who may have knowledge of sensitive cultural resources in
or near the project site. The SLF was returned with negative results. Rincon conducted a records search of
the California Historical Resources Information System and completed a pedestrian survey which did not
identify any cultural resources within the project site. One prehistoric site, a low density lithic scatter, is
recorded adjacent to the eastern project boundary. One prehistoric site, a low density lithic scatter, is
recorded adjacent to the eastern project boundary; however this site was not relocated during the
survey. Rincon will be completing a Phase I extended survey with a Native American monitor present to
determine if a subsurface deposit exists on site.
If you have knowledge of cultural resources that may exist in or near the project site, please contact me
at (760) 918-9444 extension 217, or at bcampbell@rinconconsultants.com. A Project Location Map
depicting the project site is enclosed with this letter for your reference. Thank you for your assistance.

Subject: Cultural Resources Study for the Resort View Development Project, San Diego, California
Dear Chairperson Welch:
Rincon Consultants, Inc. (Rincon) has been retained to conduct a cultural resources study for the Resort
View Development Project (project) in Carlsbad, California. The proposed project involves the
construction of 19 residential units in 5 buildings. Buildings A and B would have 2 units with attached
garages; Buildings C and D, 4 units with attached garages; Building E, 7 units with garages and "tucked-
under" parking. The approximately one-acre project site is located at 7551 Viejo Castilla Way in Carlsbad,
California. The project site is currently vacant and surrounding land uses consist of multi-family residential
buildings. The project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEOA).
As part of the process of identifying cultural resources for this project, Rincon contacted the Native
American Heritage Commission (NAHC) and requested a Sacred Lands File (SLF) search and a list of Native
American tribal organizations and individuals who may have knowledge of sensitive cultural resources in
or near the project site. The SLF was returned with negative results. Rincon conducted a records search of
the California Historical Resources Information System and completed a pedestrian survey which did not
identify any cultural resources within the project site. One prehistoric site, a low density lithic scatter, is
recorded adjacent to the eastern project boundary. One prehistoric site, a low density lithic scatter, is
recorded adjacent to the eastern project boundary; however this site was not relocated during the
survey. Rincon will be completing a Phase I extended survey with a Native American monitor present to
determine if a subsurface deposit exists on site.
If you have knowledge of cultural resources that may exist in or near the project site, please contact me
at (760) 918-9444 extension 217, or at bcampbell@rinconconsultants.com. A Project Location Map
depicting the project site is enclosed with this letter for your reference. Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely,
Rincon Consultants, Inc.
