Section 2.13 CULTURAL RESOURCES STUDY (VA JUL 2018) – This section has been deleted entirely and replaced with the following:

A Cultural Resources Study is required with initial offers. The Government has determined that it requires a brief preliminary study to predict the likelihood of the Lease Acquisition’s impacts on cultural resources.

The Cultural Resources Study shall include the following work:

A. Background Research - The Offeror will examine readily available data pertinent to the history, prehistory, ethnography, and environment of the study area, including but not necessarily limited to State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO), local public library, historical society, or local university to develop a general understanding of the proposed site/building and how it may have changed through time, to identify previously recorded historic resources, and to generate the information and perspectives needed to predict the likely presence or absence of resources and the likely character of impacts, if any.

B. Identification and Initial Outreach of Experts and Interested Parties – The Offeror will identify experts and others likely to be interested in and knowledgeable about the history, archaeology, and culture of the area, including but not limited to relevant local government officials and offices, Indian tribal governments, academic interests, and state, local, and other historical, architectural, and archaeological organizations. Offeror will document initial outreach to experts and interested parties.

C. Fieldwork - The Offeror will inspect the study area and immediate surrounding areas to the extent feasible from areas normally open to the public, and without conducting excavations or other modifications of the land, landscaping, buildings, or structures, to document the general character of each area and its buildings, structures, and other cultural features. The Offeror will inform VA immediately if there are any access issues that may hinder their capacity to gather this information for discussion and assist VA in the development of alternative mechanisms for gathering this important information.

D. Report - The Offeror will prepare and provide to VA a report addressing the following questions with respect to the study area, and including all pertinent supporting documentation:

1. Determine and define, based on the RLP and Pre-Bid Conference, what the Undertaking is.

2. Determine and define what the Area of Potential Effect (APE) for the Undertaking is. Provide geographic materials (i.e. USGS maps, aerial images, etc.) delineating the exact dimensions of the

APE.

3. Determine and define if there are districts, sites, buildings, structures, or objects wholly or partly within the APE that are on or may be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places.

4. Determine and define what the likelihood that other kinds of cultural resources (e.g. significant local sociocultural groups or activities, religious practices, cultural institutions, documents, artifacts, etc.) exist or occur in the APE, particularly any resources associated with federally recognized tribes.
