EAS is preparing a phase I intensive archaeological survey and inventory project at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek-Fort Story in Virginia, to determine if additional archaeological sites are present within approximately 39 acres of survey areas. Pedestrian surveys were completed within ocean-side, survey sub-areas located in the swash- and fire-dune, talus-slope zones while other survey areas were surveyed using a combination of shovel testing and hand bucket-auger testing. This project is being conducted to comply with Sections 106 and 100 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966.
