FINAL Phase IB Underwater Archaeological Resources Report for Onondaga Lake Superfund Site Significance Evaluation for A17 National Register Evaluation Integrity of: Location The two spud barges comprising A17 remain their original location, thus LCMM recommends that they retain integrity of location. Design A17 retains design elements such as spatial organization, technology and materials that are reflective of the boatbuilders’ original activities. LCMM recommends that A17 retains integrity of design. Setting Although A17’s location in Onondaga Lake remains the same as when it was intentionally sunk, its specific surroundings have changed significantly. Sedimentation around and over the site has changed the adjacent lake bottom, vegetation and topography. LCMM recommends that A17 does not retain integrity of setting. Materials Most of the barges’ structure is present. LCMM recommends that A17 retains integrity of materials. Workmanship A17 has potential to yield information about the boatbuilders’ skill and techniques. LCMM recommends that A17 has integrity of workmanship. Feeling A17 retains significant physical characteristics, particularly the spud holders and raked ends, that convey her historic qualities. LCMM recommends that A17 retains integrity of feeling. Association A17 remains in the place where the sinking occurred and it is sufficiently intact to convey its nature as a spud barge. From an information potential perspective, integrity of association is measured in terms of the strength of the relationship between the site’s data and important research questions. The site could answer important questions about spud barge construction materials and techniques. LCMM recommends that A17 retains integrity of association. Criterion: A: Event A17 has an association with pattern of events comprising the commercial use of the New York State Barge Canal. Areas of significance include commerce and transportation. LCMM recommends that A17 is eligible under Criterion A. B: Person No known individually significant persons are associated with the A17. C: Design/ Construction D: Information Potential LCMM recommends that A17 is ineligible under Criterion B. Although the upper portions of the wreck are deteriorated, the bottom hull of A17 displays the details of the spud barge’s method of construction and design. LCMM recommends that A17 is eligible under Criterion C. The study of A17 is likely to yield information about spud barge construction techniques. LCMM recommends that A17 is eligible under Criterion D. Recommendations LCMM recommends that the shoreline stabilization plan be revised to avoid any adverse effect to the spud barges A17-1 and A17-2. 157
