of the existing Southeast Clear Lake Wastewater Treatment System. A final report was <br /> submitted in 1978. The project was 75% federally funded. <br /> CA-Mer-215, the Wofsen Mound <br /> The three phases of field excavations were done in 1977 and 1978 at the location of <br /> the proposed sewage treatment plant facilities for the City of Newman, California. Phase <br /> III fieldwork of the major site included excavation of 400 units and exposure of nine <br /> housepit depressions. The analytical and interpretive report describes the cultural sequence, <br /> which spans the time from Paleo Indian occupation to the terminal site use around A.D. <br /> 1860. During Phase IV (1978), human remains exposed by the winter flood waters were <br /> exhumed. This phase of work was done in close cooperation with Native American <br /> representatives. The project was 75% federally funded. <br /> Calero Reservoir <br /> This private reservoir submerged a very significant archeological site. Salvage <br /> excavations were undertaken in 1979 to recover significant archeological and historical data <br /> before inundation. The prehistoric site was shown to be one of the earliest known sites in <br /> the Sacramento Valley (10,000-16,000 B.C.) through recovery and analysis of over 50,000 <br /> artifacts. Over 110 units were excavated. The final report was submitted in 1981. <br /> V-12 <br />
