Statement of Work

Gardiner District, Custer Gallatin National Forest

DESCRIPTION OF WORK and PROJECT LOCATION

The contractor will conduct a cultural resource survey along the Yellowstone River Corridor between Miner, MT and the Yellowstone Park Boundary on the Gardiner Ranger District. The contracted work will produce an inventory report and context documents on both the pre-contact and historic periods represented within the Yellowstone River Corridor. There are approximately 50 known sites in the general Yellowstone Corridor that will need to be considered for the context documents. The field inventory will identify and document all cultural resources within the survey area (32 sites on Forest Service lands to be updated and an estimated 5 new sites to be recorded due to some new inventory areas).

Linear sites, such as the Northern Pacific Railroad Park Branch Line (24PA1120), Yankee Jim Toll Road/Wagon Route (24PA0763), the Yellowstone Auto Route (24PA1148), and the Old Chico to Gardiner Road (24PA1393), will have their full alignments and associated features from Miner to Gardiner (about 11 miles distance) identified on the ground on Forest Service lands with the remaining features noted with coordinates. It is estimated that the railroad, toll road, and auto route sites will each need seven miles delineated on Forest Service lands. The Old Chico to Gardiner Road appears to have about 1.5 miles on Forest Service lands within the inventory area. This comes to an estimated

22.5 miles of linear sites to be documented. There is some overlap of railroad grade and historic roadbed in certain locations, which will decrease the actual mileage.

As a result of the 2022 Flood, many prehistoric sites may be exposed in the new cutbanks. Additionally, detailed documentation of sites exposed to cutbank erosion by the Yellowstone River will be undertaken. Other disturbances to sites that need to be documented especially in the site forms are the presence of utility poles within site boundaries and recreationalist impacts.

Total survey acreage is 2,020 acres. Thirty-two sites are located on Forest Service land within the inventory area.

These 32 sites, which include four linear sites and an historic townsite (Electric 24PA0483), will be updated.

In support of the context documents, this corridor includes four pre-contact period sites with previous testing, Corwin Springs Site (24PA0195), Sphinx Creek (24PA0508), and Buffalo and Beaver Caves (24PA0772), and Yankee’s Revenge Site (24PA0805). The Corwin Springs Site contains a buried Bitterroot component that has been closely studied (Davis et al 2012). Sphinx Creek is a multiple occupation site with occupations that span from the Archaic to the Late Pre-Contact Period (Deaver et al 1989:32). The Buffalo and Beaver Caves are highly important as they include rock art and cradleboards were recovered from Buffalo Cave historically. Limited testing at Buffalo Cave encountered a hearth with charcoal dates to 3870+/-80BP, while charcoal from testing at Beaver Cave dated to 1280+/-80BP (Allen 1990). The Yankee’s Revenge Site has received recent testing in 2021 (Peterson 2021). There are several overarching documents for the west side of the river in the Yellowstone Corridor, which address historical research (Allen 2018, Whithorn 1989) and cultural resources (Deaver et al 1989, Huppe 1988). Focused study of the Electric and Aldridge coal mining operations has occurred (Shover 1987). Also, there has been previous inventory on the Royal Teton Ranch lands that will be beneficial to the context documents (Fredlund 1987).

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

The Contractor shall perform the work in accordance with relevant professional standards. These include:

A Class III intensive cultural resource survey will be conducted along the Yellowstone River Corridor including careful search of old and new cutbanks along the Yellowstone River. All heritage resources within this corridor will be recorded using the Montana Historic Property or Montana Cultural Resource site forms, whichever is appropriate.

Thirty-two sites, which include four linear sites and an historic townsite, will be monitored and site updates included on the appropriate Montana State site form.

A report describing the results of the inventory, site monitoring, and any newly documented sites. This report information will be incorporated into contextual documents that describe the development of pre-contact and historic contexts of the Yellowstone River Corridor. Site forms will be attached as appendices to the report.

The deliverable will consist of one digital copy of a report on the results of the cultural resource inventory, site forms for all recorded cultural resources, along with all relevant maps, photographs (historical as well as current) and attachments. The context documents for the pre-contract and historic periods may be done as a single overview or two separate documents. If the contractor would like to simply incorporate the detailed contextual information into the inventory report, that approach can be discussed and happen with approval of the COR. If the contextual documents are written separately from the inventory report, then a draft context(s) would be reviewed by the COR for accuracy and completeness.

Upon acceptance of the draft report by the COR, the contractor will obtain site numbers for any newly discovered site from the Montana Historic Preservation Office and submit the final report deliverable consisting of two unbound paper copies of the report (site forms are an appendix to the report), one digital copy of the report in .pdf file format, and GIS data and associated metadata. GIS data should contain, at a minimum, shapefiles of survey unit boundaries, areas surveyed if different from unit boundaries (this would be cleared with the COR and justified in the report), and site boundaries in NAD83. A digital copy of all photographs of features and overview photographs of the sites will be provided in JPEG, TIFF or another commonly used digital photo file format. If the contractor has incorporated the detailed contextual information for the pre-contact and historic periods into the report, then that would be the only deliverable document. If the contractor has produced a separate context(s), then two unbound paper copies of this document(s) and one digital copy in .pdf file format also would be a deliverable for this contract.

It is important to note that all submissions MUST follow the above standards, or the work will be returned to the contractor for correction. Neither the Forest Service nor the Montana State Historic Preservation Office will provide clerical services for the purposes of completing these contract requirements.
