The U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration Nevada Field Office (NNSA/NFO) proposes to remove the ball courts and grade the area known as Dell Frenzi Park in the town of Mercury at the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS) in Nye County, Nevada. The park is within the Mercury Historic District (Nevada State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) Resource No. D230). This project is an undertaking subject to review under Title 54 U.S.C. § 306108, commonly known as Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, Title 54 U.S.C. § 300101, et seq., and its implementing regulations, 36 C.F.R. Part 800. The NNSA/NFO has consulted with the SHPO and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation regarding the demolition of and modification to resources in Mercury as part of a modernization project, and has developed the Mercury Programmatic Agreement (PA) with the SHPO that specifies the approach that NNSA/NFO will take to meet its statutory obligations toward historic preservation within the district. The district is located in Sections 10–12, 14, and 15, T15S R53E, Mount Diablo Benchmark (BM) (projected) in Area 23 of the NNSS. In 2010, the Nevada Test Site became the NNSS, and will be referred to as such throughout this report as appropriate. This report is part of the Report Series: Evaluation, Finding of Effect, and Mitigation Documentation for Dell Frenzi Park, Mercury, Area 23, Nevada National Security Site, Nye County, Nevada
