The 1978 investigations consisted of survey, as much site testing as funding allowed, reviews of all known sites and the development of a management plan for the archeological resources remaining in the project area. The survey concentrated on project areas which had received little or no work to establish the equivalent of a total non-exclusive project inventory. Seventeen previously unrecorded sites were identified for a total of 103 sites within the project limits. Twelve sites from the overall project area were selected for testing. The initial work had concentrated upon flood plain habitations; therefore, the sites selected in 1978 were predominately those higher on the valley profile. Tested were rock shelters, extensive burned rock complexes and smaller habitation areas. Recovered materials indicated Early and Middle Ceramic manifestation of Cuesta phase and Pomona focus. The Archaic period was also represented but in limited quantity. (Author)
