Attachment 6: Methodology, Potentially Affected Resources, and Potential Consulting

Parties

MTA will undertake investigations to determine the presence of historic properties, such as above-

ground resources and archaeological sites, defined as those that are listed, or eligible for listing, in

the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). All work will be conducted or directed by staffthat meet the Secretary of the Interiors Professional Qualification Standards (36 CFR Part 61) in

Architectural History, History, and Archaeology. Resumes for project personnel are available upon

request.

Research Methodology

The methodology used to research, inventory, and analyze the property will follow the Secretary of

the Interiors Guidelines for Historical Documentation and the Standards and Guidelines for

Historical and Architectural Investigations in Maryland. The methodology statement will define

documentation objectives and research designs. Research methods and the results of analysis will

be incorporated into new or revised Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties (MIHP) inventoryforms.

Research methodologies will target repositories with high potential for containing relevanthistorical materials. Selection of repositories with the highest potential to contain useful

background information will result from discussions with MTA staff, URS project staff, and local

property owners, as well as past reports, and review of on-line research catalogs. Data collectionefforts will emphasize review of historic photographs, maps, accounts, and period descriptions.

These will be used to document the design, setting, and alterations to the properties within the

project area. Research materials will include MIHP forms, photographs, historic newspaperaccounts, and histories related to the project area and buildings or sites contained in the project

area. URS and SEI will review existing background information relevant to this study, including

the 1977 MIHP Form CE145 for Woodlands and preliminary research, photographs, maps, and

other information provided by MTA. Additionally, URS and SEI will access information on file at

the MHT regarding previously recorded archaeological sites and previously conductedarchaeological investigations in and within a one-mile radius of the project area.

SEI will conduct original, primary, and secondary-source research at key historical repositories inCecil County, Baltimore, Annapolis, and other locations in Maryland and Washington, D.C. The

following table provides an overview of recommended research materials with names of

repositories and brief descriptions of relevant source material.

All appropriate published resources will be utilized. SEI will also provide text on the cultural

history of the project area and on previously recorded sites and archaeological investigations in andwithin a one-mile radius of the project area for inclusion in the report of archaeological

investigations.

Based on desktop research and a brief field reconnaissance, URS and SEI have identified the

following 13 architectural resources within the Area of Potential Effects (APE) (see Attachments

4 and5). These resources require research, analysis, and completion/revision of long form MHT

Determinations of Eligibility (DOE) due to anticipated physical, visual, or noise effects associated

with construction and operation of the MARC Maintenance Facility:

The Above-Ground Area of Potential Effects (APE) for above-ground resources, to include the


11/13

area of anticipated physical, visual, and noise effects. It is anticipated that this APE will be located

within a 0.25-mile radius from the project site and will include any properties 50 or more years oldlocated within the vista to and from the project site. The Archaeological APE will be the

approximately 120-acre project site. URS will conduct a Phase I archaeological survey of the

APE. Approximately 115 acres of the APE, which consists of agricultural fields, will be subjected

to pedestrian inspection and shovel testing at 20-meter intervals with 10-meter radial tests ifarchaeological resources are encountered. The approximately 5 acre farmstead in the southwestern

portion of the APE will be subjected to pedestrian inspection and shovel testing at 10-meter

intervals. If necessary, URS will conduct a Phase II archaeological evaluation of anyarchaeological resources encountered during the Phase I investigation that have the potential to be

eligible for listing in the NRHP.

A preliminary list of Section 106 consulting parties include local government representatives,recognized tribal representatives that attach significance to the property, and other parties that, due

to the nature of the undertaking and their likely effects on historic properties, may have a

demonstrated interest, including legal and economic interests, on the effect of the undertaking on

historic properties. URS will work with MTA, MHT, FTA, and the Marylands Governors

Commission on Indian Affairs to identify tribal representatives to be notified of the undertaking

and provided them the opportunity to comment. Potential consulting parties include:

The Town of Perryville Office of Planning and Zoning

Cecil County Office of Planning and Zoning

Cecil County Historical Society

Piscataway-Conoy Tribe

Piscataway Indian Nation

Accohannock Indian Tribe, Inc.

Assateague Peoples Tribe

Nause-Waiwash Band of Indians, inc.

Pocomoke Indian Tribe, Inc.

Youghiogheny River Band of Shawnee Indians, Inc.

Public participation will be coordinated with the MTA and follow their established protocol.

Written notification will be provided to adjacent property owners, local government groups, andother interested parties as appropriate, providing them an opportunity to comment on the proposed

project and its effect on historic properties. The following is URSs working schedule for the

CRM tasks associated with this undertaking.
