Re: Lindsay Well 11 Project, Tulare County
Dear Mr. Sauls:
A record search of the Native American Heritage Commission (NAHC) Sacred Lands File (SLF) was completed for the information you have submitted for the above referenced project. The results were negative. However, the absence of specific site information in the SLF does not indicate the absence of cultural resources in any project area. Other sources of cultural resources should also be contacted for information regarding known and recorded sites.
Attached is a list of Native American tribes who may also have knowledge of cultural resources in the project area. This list should provide a starting place in locating areas of potential adverse impact within the proposed project area. I suggest you contact all of those indicated; if they cannot supply information, they might recommend others with specific knowledge. By contacting all those listed, your organization will be better able to respond to claims of failure to consult with the appropriate tribe. If a response has not been received within two weeks of notification, the Commission requests that you follow-up with a telephone call or email to ensure that the project information has been received.
If you receive notification of change of addresses and phone numbers from tribes, please notify me. With your assistance, we can assure that our lists contain current information.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at my email address: [email protected].
Sincerely,
Cameron Vela

RE: The City of Lindsay Well 11 Treatment Project, City of Lindsay, Tulare County, California Dear Nichole Escalon,
Taylored Archaeology is currently under contract to Provost & Pritchard Consulting Group to provide cultural resource services for the proposed City of Lindsay Well 11 Treatment Project in the City of Lindsay, Tulare County, California. The proposed project consists of installing nitrate and perchlorate treatment processes to the existing Well 11 facility. The project is on Assessor’s Parcel Numbers 199- 140-038, 199-140-048, 199-140-049 and 199-200-028. The project site is located at West Mariposa Street and east of Highway 65 on the west side of Lindsay. The project site is currently a stormwater basin and vacant field. This project is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project boundary is in Section 12, Township 20 South, Range 26 East, Mount Diablo Meridian of Lindsay, California 7.5-minute USGS quadrangle (see attached map).
A search of the Native American Heritage Commission’s (NAHC) Sacred Lands File did not indicate the presence of tribal or cultural resources in the immediate project area. Taylored Archaeology also requested a records search of the project area at the California Historic Resources Information System (CHRIS), Southern San Joaquin Valley Information Center (SSJVIC) located at the California State University, Bakersfield. The records search results did not identify any previously recorded cultural resources in the project area. An archaeological pedestrian survey of the project area was conducted on January 20, 2024. One historical archaeological resource was encountered during the pedestrian survey, the foundations of a rural residence circa early to mid-1900s.
The NAHC provided your name and address as someone who may have interest in sharing information regarding sacred sites, tribal cultural resources, or other resources of importance in the project area.
Please note this outreach letter is research for a cultural resources investigation and is not governmentto-government consultation under Assembly Bill 52. Taylored Archaeology understands and takes measures to protect the confidentiality of archaeological site locations, cemeteries, or sacred places, as required by law. Taylored Archaeology will not disclose locational information in any document available to the general public.

If you have information that you would like to share, please feel free to contact me by email at [email protected], or send a letter to my attention at 6083 N. Figarden Dr., Ste. 616, Fresno, CA 93722. Any response by February 10, 2024, would be greatly appreciated.

Dear Samantha McCarty,
Please find attached a letter and a map addressed to the Santa Rosa Rancheria Tachi Yokut Tribe for Native American outreach regarding the City of Lindsay Well 11 Treatment Project in Lindsay, Tulare County (see attachments for more details).
Taylored Archaeology performed a cultural resources investigation for the project. SSJVIC records showed no recorded cultural resources within the project boundary. NAHC SLF results were negative. An archaeological pedestrian survey was conducted and identified one historic-era cultural resource (description in letter attached).
I am conducting this outreach for research as part of the cultural resources investigation. Your response is greatly appreciated.
Respectively,
Consuelo Sauls

The project site is located at West Mariposa Street and east of Highway 65 on the west side of the City of Lindsay in Tulare County.
I am following up to confirm the letter was received and to offer you the opportunity to share any information regarding the presence of sensitive cultural resources within the project area. Your response is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.

Hi Consuelo,
Thank you for following up with us on this project. I was out on leave for two weeks and am slowly making my way through my emails.
Due to the location of the project, we will be deferring to tribes that are more local to the area. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact myself or anyone else in the SRR Cultural Department.
Also, if there are any other projects that you have sent to us and have not received any sort of response from us, could you please resend them to us, so they are at the top of our inboxes, and we can review them? Thank you.

A5. Cultural Constituents (Describe and quantify artifacts, ecofacts, cultural residues, etc., not associated with features.):
No artifacts, ecofacts, or cultural residues were observed on the site.
A6. Were Specimens Collected? ◼ No Yes (If yes, attach Artifact Record or catalog and identify where specimens are curated.) A7. Site Condition: Good Fair ◼ Poor (Describe disturbances.): The former structure is filled with sediment and demolished except for its foundations. Additionally, the foundations are partially cracked and broken due to decades of weathering.
The surrounding field is annually disced for fire control.
A8. Nearest Water (Type, distance, and direction.): Lewis Creek is approximately 1.57 miles (2.5 kilometers) northeast of the site.
A9. Elevation: 370 feet above sea level.
A10. Environmental Setting (Describe culturally relevant variables such as vegetation, fauna, soils, geology, landform, slope, aspect, exposure, etc.): The site is a flat vacant lot surrounded by orchards, empty fields, commercial buildings, an elementary school, a stormwater basin, and residences. Vegetation on the site is primarily dominated by annual grasses and ruderal plants. The site is heavily trafficked by local pedestrians using an unofficial dirt path to cut through the site approximately 30 feet west of the foundations.
A11. Historical Information: Based on archival research of available historic aerial photographs, topographic maps, and other historical information, the site was a rural residence built sometime between 1929 and 1946 and demolished sometime between 1984 and 1990. During the time of its existence the rural residence was surrounded by orchards and the residential site additionally had multiple outbuildings. No evidence of these outbuildings was encountered during the survey. The site is currently owned by the City of Lindsay and has no current address. A review of available property ownership records did not reveal any information of prior ownership or historical addresses.
A12. Age: Prehistoric Protohistoric 1542-1769 1769-1848 1848-1880 1880-1914 ◼ 1914-1945 Post 1945 Undetermined Describe position in regional prehistoric chronology or factual historic dates if known: Per A11 above, the rural residence appears to be constructed between 1929 and 1946.
A13. Interpretations (Discuss data potential, function[s], ethnic affiliation, and other interpretations): The site appears to be remnants of an early 1900s rural residence. No information was discovered on prior ownership or individuals residing at the site.
Aside from what has been documented in this site record and the accompanying report (Item P11), the site demonstrates little additional information potential. The site does not appear eligible for a listing in a local historic registry, California Register of Historical Resources, and the National Register of Historic Places.
