In addition, surveys need to be in compliance with various State regulations (Virginia and North Carolina) depending on the location of the planned timber harvest area. Because timber harvesting involves activities including road construction, dragging of material on skids, and other general ground-disturbing activities that have the potential to adversely affect previously unidentified historic properties, a cultural resource assessment is required to identify any significant historic properties that may potentially be adversely affected by such activities. Additionally, a cultural resources assessment will also be used to identify and protect previously identified cultural resources within the JHK areas of potential effect (APE) that are eligible or potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Cultural resources studies that have been previously conducted for the JHK and are available through State preservation offices.
