The project area is located within one quarter (1/4) mile from either a <br />protected Native American pre-contact site recorded with DAHP, or a <br />protected historic site that is listed or eligible, or potentially eligible and <br />unevaluated, in the DAHP inventory. <br /> <br />ii. DAHP or an affected Native American tribe timely comments through the <br />above cultural resources review process (or concurrent permitting or <br />environmental review process, if applicable), and requests an <br />archaeological survey be completed due to the presence of one or more <br />of the following risk-factors: <br />• Documented historic feature(s) on the property or located within <br />one quarter (1/4) mile from the project area; <br />• Previous positive archaeological survey results from a survey on <br />the property or within one quarter (1/4) mile from the project area; <br />or <br />• A tribally-recorded site located within one quarter (1/4) mile of the <br />project area. <br /> <br />iii. DAHP and an affected Native American tribe timely comment through <br />the above cultural resources review process (or concurrent permitting or <br />environmental review process, if applicable), and both DAHP and the <br />affected Native American tribe request that an archaeological survey be <br />completed due to a professional archaeologist’s determination that the <br />project area is in an area that is at high-risk for the presence of <br />archaeological resources (e.g. in an area with high-risk soil deposit types <br />such as historic high-energy soil deposits, or soils with multiple <br />depositional contexts). <br /> <br />iv. The County determines that an archaeological survey is otherwise <br />warranted. <br /> <br />d. Archaeological Survey & Reporting Standards. Archaeological surveys shall <br />be completed by a professional archaeologist. Archaeological survey reports <br />shall conform to DAHP’s then-current reporting standards.1 Both DAHP and <br />affected Native American tribes shall receive copies of completed <br />archaeological survey reports, and have a reasonable opportunity (in no case <br />less than fifteen days) to comment on their sufficiency before such reports <br />shall be considered final. Final archaeological survey reports shall be filed <br />with DAHP prior to the County’s issuance of a permit, exemption, or other <br /> <br />1 See Washington State Department of Archaeology and Historic Preservation, Washington State Standards for <br />Cultural Resource Reporting (February 2, 2017), available at <br />http://www.dahp.wa.gov/sites/default/files/CR%20Update%20February%202017.pdf (last visited May 23, 2017).
