Therefore, no further studies are recommended, and a 2019 Programmatic Agreement Certification will be prepared for these segments.
    The Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) is undertaking the Emergency Relief Program Guardrail Projects to repair and replace guardrails on PR-123 across Ponce, Adjuntas, Utuado, and Arecibo, damaged by Hurricanes Irma and Maria. Funded by federal and state emergency funds, the project adheres to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) and involves a comprehensive review process with the Puerto Rico State Historic Preservation Office (PRSHPO). An interdisciplinary team of qualified professionals will identify cultural resources within the Area of Potential Effect (APE) and assess the project's impact on historic properties, particularly the Carretera Núm. 6 Historic District (PR-123). Most segments are expected to have "No adverse effect to historic properties," with recommendations for Programmatic Agreement Certifications. However, specific segments, like PR-123-MB07 and PR-123-MB21, require archaeological supervision due to adjacent historic resources such as a concrete guardrail and a culvert.
    The Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) initiated the Emergency Relief Program Guardrail Projects to repair and replace guardrails damaged by Hurricanes Irma and María. This effort, funded by federal and state funds, involves a Section 106 review process to identify and assess the impact on historic properties. The project focuses on PR-153 in Coamo, where a historic road segment (c. 1846) and a culvert (c. 1930) were identified as potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). An archaeological supervision plan is recommended to mitigate potential adverse effects, ensuring that guardrail replacements do not impact these resources. The project complies with the Streamlined Section 106 consultation process, aiming for no adverse effects on historic properties through careful monitoring.
    The Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) is undertaking the Emergency Relief Program Guardrail Projects to repair and replace guardrails on several highway segments in Ponce, Puerto Rico, damaged by hurricanes Irma and María. This effort, financed by federal and/or state funds, requires compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) to assess potential effects on historic properties. A site visit by qualified professionals identified no cultural resources or historic structures within the immediate project areas of the nine surveyed road segments (PR-505-MB01 to PR-505-MB18). While several archaeological sites, historic haciendas, and canals were found adjacent to these segments, the proposed guardrail repairs are determined to have "No adverse effect to historic property." Consequently, no further studies are recommended, and a 2019 Programmatic Agreement Certification will be prepared according to the Streamline Process.
    The Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) proposes repairs and replacements to guardrails on PR-505 in Ponce, Puerto Rico, damaged by Hurricanes Irma and Maria. The project, identified as AC-831578 / ER-9999-522, involves repairing/replacing guardrail end-terminals, upgrading bridge transitions, installing new transition modules, and performing traffic maintenance. These actions are within previously disturbed PRHTA rights-of-way, maintaining the existing road typical section. Multiple segments of PR-505 are addressed, including MB18, MB14, MB09, MB08, MB07, MB04, MB03, MB02, and MB01, each with an estimated cost of either $3,900, $10,540, or $5,400. The PRHTA certifies compliance with the Streamlined Section 106 Consultation Process, stating no cultural resources will be affected, or that any identified resources are far from the undertaking. The project adheres to Appendix A, Section II, Subsection 2 of the Programmatic Agreement among FHWA, PRHTA, SHPO, and ACHP. If unexpected cultural resources are found, work will cease, and SHPO will be notified. The certification date for these segments is May 22, 2022.
    Pantel del Cueto & Associates LLC (PdC) was awarded Contract No. AC-825541/ ER-9999(293) by the Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) to provide consulting services for Section 106 Compliance Requirements for Emergency Relief Program Guardrail Projects in Carolina and Adjuntas. This project, funded by federal and/or state funds, involves repairing and replacing guardrails damaged by hurricanes Irma and María. PdC conducted a comprehensive cultural resources assessment, categorizing guardrail segments based on their proximity to historic properties and potential effects. The final report comprises a Guardrail Installation/Description Table, two Identification of Cultural Resources & Assessment of Effects Reports (First Report for Category B, Conditions 1 & 2; Second Report for Category A, Conditions 1 & 2), and referenced documents. The scope of work included pre-assessment, formation of an interdisciplinary team, field visits to identify historic properties and determine effects, and preparation of detailed reports to ensure compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
    The provided file lists multiple projects (R-889 to R-936) under the Emergency Relief Program, all focused on "Signing and Guardrails Projects." Each entry specifies the task as "Identification of Cultural Resources and Assessment of Effect" and references the project code AC-825541, which pertains to the CAROLINA & ADJUNTAS areas. The consistent repetition across all entries indicates a standardized approach to assessing the cultural impact of these emergency relief infrastructure projects in the specified geographical locations. The file likely serves as a record or part of an RFP detailing the scope of work for cultural resource management related to these projects.
    The Emergency Relief Program - Signing and Guardrails Projects file details cultural resource assessments for guardrail installations on PR-187 and PR-853 in Carolina and Loíza, Puerto Rico. Prepared by Pantel del Cueto & Associates LLC, the report includes addenda with site visit reports and cultural resource charts. The inspections, conducted in November and December 2021 by Yaritza Hernandez and supervised by Agamemnon Pantel, categorized all guardrails as Category A or B. The majority of guardrail projects, including EB-1, EB-2, EB-3, WB-7, EB-5, WB-6, EB-7, WB-5, WB-2, WB-3, WB-1, and WB-4 on PR-187, and all guardrails on PR-853 (NB-7, NB-6, NB-5, SB-1, NB-4, SB-2, NB-3, SB-3, SB-4, NB-2, NB-1, SB-5), were determined to have
    This government file details cultural resource identification and effects assessments for two Emergency Relief Program projects in Adjuntas, Puerto Rico: PR-521 and PR-522, both involving signing and guardrail repairs following hurricane damage. For PR-521, a desk review and site visit examined three segments (KM 0.00-1.01, KM 1.01-2.08, and KM 2.08-6.90). While segments A and C are over 50 years old, neither they nor a contemporary concrete retention wall were deemed eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) due to a lack of integrity and modern interventions. The Washington Irving High School and two bridges were identified as nearby cultural resources but were outside the project's Area of Potential Effect (APE) and would not be affected. For PR-522, two segments (KM 0.00-0.47 and KM 4.55-5.10) were evaluated. Both segments are over 50 years old but were deemed ineligible for the NRHP due to integrity loss. Bridge 611 and Bridge 2685, along with the listed Puente de las Cabañas, were also assessed and found to be either ineligible or outside the APE. No archaeological sites were identified within the APE for either project. The overall recommendation for both PR-521 and PR-522 is that the proposed repairs will have no effect on historic properties, and the potential for finding unknown archaeological resources is low, thus no further studies are recommended.
    The "Emergency Relief Program - Signing and Guardrails Projects" report evaluates the cultural resources along PR-187 in Carolina and Adjuntas, Puerto Rico. The road is divided into three segments (A, B, C), all deemed potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) due to their socio-cultural significance. A site visit conducted on November 2, 2021, by Dr. Agamemnon G. Pantel and Yaritza Hernández confirmed the presence of bridges and archaeological sites. The report concludes that while the PR-187 road itself is potentially eligible for the NRHP, none of the individual cultural resources (archaeological sites, bridges, culverts, or remnants of train infrastructure) are eligible due to a lack of sufficient criteria or integrity. The project activities are not expected to adversely affect the potentially eligible PR-187 road segments, and no further cultural resource studies are recommended.
    The Emergency Relief Program for Signing and Guardrails Projects (AC-825541) focuses on identifying cultural resources and assessing the effect of proposed guardrail repairs on PR-129 in Puerto Rico, spanning the municipalities of Arecibo, Hatillo, Camuy, Lares, Utuado, and Adjuntas. The road, divided into three segments (A, B, C), was evaluated for eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Segment C, completed by 1961, is deemed potentially eligible due to its historical significance and intact trajectory. Segments A and B, despite being over 50 years old, have lost integrity due to modern interventions. Cultural resources, including the Hacienda de los Torres (listed on NRHP) and various bridges, were identified adjacent to or within the project area. However, all bridges were determined not eligible for NRHP. The proposed work, limited to repairing and replacing guardrails damaged by hurricanes, is within previously impacted areas and is not expected to adversely affect any listed or potentially eligible historic properties. No further cultural resource studies are recommended, and the potential for uncovering unknown archeological resources is low.
    The document lists 34 entries (R-727 to R-760) detailing various projects under the Emergency Relief Program. Each entry consistently describes "Signing and Guardrails Projects" and specifies the "Identification of Cultural Resources and Assessment of Effect" for the AC-825541 project located in [CAROLINA & ADJUNTAS]. The repetitive nature of the entries indicates a series of similar undertakings within the same program and geographical area, all requiring cultural resource identification and effect assessment. This suggests a standardized approach to managing emergency relief projects involving infrastructure improvements, with a strong emphasis on environmental and cultural preservation compliance.

    The Puerto Rico Highway and Transportation Authority (PRHTA) is undertaking the Emergency Relief Program Guardrail Projects to repair and replace guardrails damaged by Hurricanes Irma and Maria across several municipalities in Puerto Rico. This project, identified by codes AC-826541/AC-834578/ER-9999-555, involves highways PR 134, PR 135, PR 453, and PR 455. The initiative is funded by federal and/or state emergency funds. A cultural resources assessment, conducted under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, determined that while these roads are over 50 years old and potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) as cultural resources, the guardrail repair and replacement will have "No Adverse Effect" on them. This is because the work primarily involves replacing existing damaged guardrails and does not impact other historic properties within the Area of Potential Effect (APE). For certain segments of PR 135, archaeological supervision is recommended to ensure no adverse effects on other potentially eligible cultural resources. Overall, the project will proceed with a 2019 Programmatic Agreement Certification, with no further studies recommended for most road segments.
