ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESEARCH SERVICES 1812 15~h Avenue Sou~h MINREAPOLIS, MR 55404-2119 Phone: 612-870-9775 Fax: 612-870-9789 ~ < .J ~ ~~ Da~e: June 6, 2007 To: John Meyer, Financial Director City of Centerville From: Christina Harrison Re: 1601 Lamont Drive: Archaeological Phase I Investigation I have now reviewed the information you gave me about this project as well as our own files for past work in the Centerville area. An area adjacent to Centerville Lake should definitely be considered to have high archaeological potential as this area is known to have attracted Native Americans as well as early Euroamerican settlers and a number of archaeological sites already have been recorded around the northern and western shores of the lake. As the project area is quite small, I estimate that we could conduct a Phase I investigation in one day. As we already have most of the needed background information on file, the preparation of a report would take about as many hours. We could take care of the work early part of next week. My cost estimate is: principal Investigator, 1 hr @ $100 Field/Lab director, 16 hrs @ $50 Research Staff, 10 hrs @ $25 Mileage/Clerical Expenses To~al $100 800 250 70 $1,220 Should any archaeological evidence be found that needs further evaluation, another day or two of fieldwork and analysis would be required. We have conducted a number of surveys in your area, including the Anoka-Isanti Phase of the Statewide Archaeological Survey and, since then, various smaller scale compliance surveys related to specific construction projects. I would be happy to send you a complete list of our research experience. 3/
