Re: Record Search Results for the Willard & Garvey Residential project
The South Central Coastal Information Center received your records search request for the project area
referenced above, located on the El Monte, CA USGS 7.5’ quadrangle. The following summary reflects
the results of the records search for the project area and a ½-mile radius. The search includes a review
of all recorded archaeological and built-environment resources as well as a review of cultural resource
reports on file. In addition, the California Points of Historical Interest (SPHI), the California Historical
Landmarks (SHL), the California Register of Historical Resources (CAL REG), the National Register of
Historic Places (NRHP), and the California State Built Environment Resources Directory (BERD) listings
were reviewed for the above referenced project site and a ½-mile radius. Due to the sensitive nature of
cultural resources, archaeological site locations are not released.

RECOMMENDATIONS
*When we report that no archaeological resources are recorded in your project area or within a
specified radius around the project area; that does not necessarily mean that nothing is there. It may
simply mean that the area has not been studied and/or that no information regarding the archaeological
sensitivity of the property has been filed at this office. The reported records search result does not
preclude the possibility that surface or buried artifacts might be found during a survey of the property or
ground-disturbing activities.
The archaeological sensitivity of the project location is unknown because there are no previous
studies for the subject property. While there are currently no recorded archaeological sites within the
project area, buried resources could potentially be unearthed during project activities. Therefore,
customary caution and a halt-work condition should be in place for all ground-disturbing activities. In
the event that any evidence of cultural resources is discovered, all work within the vicinity of the find
should stop until a qualified archaeological consultant can assess the find and make recommendations.
Excavation of potential cultural resources should not be attempted by project personnel. It is also
recommended that the Native American Heritage Commission be consulted to identify if any additional
traditional cultural properties or other sacred sites are known to be in the area. The NAHC may also
refer you to local tribes with particular knowledge of potential sensitivity. The NAHC and local tribes
may offer additional recommendations to what is provided here and may request an archaeological
monitor. Finally, the built-environment resources on the subject property appear to be in excess of 45
years or older; therefore; a qualified architectural historian should be retained to study the property and
make recommendations regarding those structures.
For your convenience, you may find a professional consultant**at www.chrisinfo.org. Any
resulting reports by the qualified consultant should be submitted to the South Central Coastal
Information Center as soon as possible.
**The SCCIC does not endorse any particular consultant and makes no claims about the qualifications of any person listed.
Each consultant on this list self-reports that they meet current professional standards.
If you have any questions regarding the results presented herein, please contact the office at
657.278.5395 Monday through Thursday 9:00 am to 3:30 pm. Should you require any additional
information for the above referenced project, reference the SCCIC number listed above when making
inquiries. Requests made after initial invoicing will result in the preparation of a separate invoice.

Due to processing delays and other factors, not all of the historical resource reports and resource
records that have been submitted to the Office of Historic Preservation are available via this records
search. Additional information may be available through the federal, state, and local agencies that
produced or paid for historical resource management work in the search area. Additionally, Native
American tribes have historical resource information not in the California Historical Resources Information System (CHRIS) Inventory, and you should contact the California Native American Heritage
Commission for information on local/regional tribal contacts.
The California Office of Historic Preservation (OHP) contracts with the California Historical
Resources Information System’s (CHRIS) regional Information Centers (ICs) to maintain information in the
CHRIS inventory and make it available to local, state, and federal agencies, cultural resource
professionals, Native American tribes, researchers, and the public. Recommendations made by IC
coordinators or their staff regarding the interpretation and application of this information are advisory
only. Such recommendations do not necessarily represent the evaluation or opinion of the State Historic
Preservation Officer in carrying out the OHP’s regulatory authority under federal and state law.
