Grand Canyon Water Distribution System Archeological Monitoring. Phase 2. Grand Canyon Village, Historic District

摘要

During December 1986 and January and February 1987, the Division of Resources Management and Planning, Grand Canyon National Park, conducted archeological monitoring of Phase II construction activities for the new water distribution system within the Historic District of Grand Canyon Village. Excavation for the new waterline encountered four features of historic note including a portion of the Grand Canyon Railroad, an unidentified but apparently early railroad tie alignment, a cistern or septic system, and a wooden culvert dating from the 1920's. Future monitoring of construction within the Historic District is recommended.
