Archaeological Surveys & Section 106 Compliance

The EAS Section 106 Workflow: Built for Your Timeline

We understand that your construction schedules depend on timely submittals. Our team manages the entire lifecycle of an archaeological assessment with a focus on strict adherence to regulatory timelines:

• Comprehensive Records Searches: We maintain established accounts and long-term contacts with Offices of Historic Preservation (OHP) and SHPOs across the United States, allowing us to pull archival data and previous survey records rapidly.
• Expert Field Assessments: Our qualified archaeologists conduct thorough Phase I site visits to identify potential cultural resources, ensuring all ground-disturbing activities meet federal and state jurisdictional requirements.
• Streamlined Submittals: We manage the entire submittal package, including the FCC Form 620/621, ensuring that the "Finding of Effect" is clearly documented to minimize requests for additional information (RFIs) from state agencies.
• Utility & Jurisdictional Assessments: Beyond telecom, we scale our assessments to meet the specific compliance hurdles of utility companies and local municipal requirements.
