Cultural Resources Investigation along the Vermillion River at Hastings, Minnesota

摘要

The Science Museum of Minnesota conducted a three-day cultural resources field investigation of a proposed floodway channel along the Vermillion River at Hastings, Minnesota. The objective was to locate and define any existing prehistoric and/or historic sites or representative cultural materials, within the construction right-of-way. The lack of evidence for cultural resources, as represented by the lack of recoverable artifacts in test units and surface collecting, leads to a conclusion of non-adverse impact by the proposed floodway construction.
