MINNESOTA HISTORICAL SOCIETY May 9, 1996 Mr. Marty Aselson City Hall 7204 Lake Drive Lino Lakes, Minnesota 55014 Dear Mr. Aselson: Re: A-3 Athletic Complex S33, T31, R22, Lino Lakes, Anoka County SHPO Number: 96-2091 Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on the above project. It has been reviewed pursuant to the responsibilities given the Minnesota Historical Society by the Minnesota Historic Sites Act and the Minnesota Field Archaeology Act. There are reported archaeological properties in the project area. Moreover, we believe that there is a good probability that unreported properties may be present. Therefore, we recommend that a survey of the project area be completed. The survey must meet the requirements of the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Identification and Evaluation, and should include an evaluation of any properties which are identified. For your information, we have enclosed a list of consultants who have expressed an interest in undertaking such surveys. If the project area can be documented as previously disturbed or previously surveyed, we will re-evaluate the need for survey. Previously disturbed areas are those where the naturally occurring post-glacial soils and sediments have been recently removed. Any previous survey work must meet contemporary standards. Please note that this comment letter does not address the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 and 36CFR800, procedures of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation for the protection of historic properties. If this project is considered for federal assistance or requires a federal permit or license, it should be submitted to our office with reference to the federal agency. 345 KELLOGG BOULEVARD WEST/SAINT PAUL,MINNESOTA 55102-1906/TELEPHONE:612-296-6126
