MAC provided cultural compliance services for a 155-mile-corridor, 24-inch natural gas pipeline through Rio Blanco and Moffat Counties, Colorado and Sweetwater County, Wyoming. MAC conducted the initial field inventory and National Register of Historic Places site evaluations followed by the preparation and execution of a treatment plan for 12 sites. MAC also conducted follow-up monitoring and post-construction treatment for identified cultural resources. In addition to the fieldwork, the project involved extensive coordination with the Colorado and Wyoming Bureau of Land Management, Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, and the Colorado and Wyoming State Historic Preservation Offices.
