An Archaeological Inventory of Portions of the Devils Lake Basin, Benson, Eddy, Nelson, and Ramsey Counties, North Dakota


Book Description

In the Fall of 1986 and the Spring of 1987, Power Elevation, Inc. (Powers) performed a cultural resources inventory of portions of the Devils Lake flood control project area in northeastern North Dakota. This work was performed under Contract Number DACW37-86-M-1556 for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, St. Paul District (Corps). The goal of the investigation undertaken by Powers was to partially fulfill the obligations of the Corps in regards to the federal laws and regulations which dictate how cultural resources impacted by government projects should be managed. This report should serve as planning tool for the Corps, providing information about the type, number, and location of significant resources in the project area, and identifying where additional investigations may be necessary prior to construction.
