Description

The proposed contract is to complete archaeological assessments mainly within the Prince George Business Area for BC Timber Sales. The approach expected of the Contractor is to complete these assessments in two phases. The first phase is to review, update and refine, prior to the upcoming field season, an existing Archaeological Overview Assessment (AOA) of the specified study area provided by BC Timber Sales, which identifies areas of high archaeological potential. The study area is the Prince George Business Area and is represented on the Mackenzie, Prince George & Headwaters District Operating Area Maps.

The second phase, and higher priority, is to complete Archaeological Impact Assessment’s (AIA) and/or Culturally Modified Tree (CMT) surveys or Preliminary Field Reconnaissance (PFR) on priority planning units/cut blocks (study areas) during the field season. 100% of the planning units/cut blocks will be within the Prince George Business Area. The field assessments completed in Phase 2 can be used to update and refine the AOA.
