Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the project LUA23-
000143 located at 15509 116 Ave SE. Based on the information
provided and our understanding of the project and its APE, the Tribe
would accept an IDP (inadvertent discovery plan) and archaeological
monitoring for this project, especially if and when excavation cuts
below fill, topsoil or asphalt to a depth of about 5 feet into silty sands.
The DAHP WISAARD predictive model indicates that a survey is
contingent upon project parameters with a low risk for encountering
cultural resources. Our own cultural assessments indicate that this is
in an area near former upland wetlands and at least two small
streams, an unnamed one and Molasses Creek. These are areas in
which the Duwamish and other Tribes hunted, fished and gathered
cultural resources. It is also within the vicinity of at least 3 village
sites near the mouth and confluence of the Black and Cedar Rivers.
We request that if any archaeological work or monitoring is
performed, we would like notification. Cultural and archaeological
resources are non-renewable and are best discovered prior to ground
disturbance. The Tribe would also like the opportunity to be present if
or when an archaeologist is on site in the event that an artifact or
cultural resource is encountered. In addition, the Tribe strongly
recommends only native vegetation is used for any proposed
landscaping to enhance native avian life, native pollinators and to
mitigate seasonal urban flooding.
