Operations under what was called Phase IV "Salvage" for the project were 
summarized in very brief reports that should be on file at UMass Boston 
(UMB), Anthropology Dept. and the Massachusetts Historical Commission (MHC). 
  Most of these briefs were prepared by Robert Hasenstab, pre-1999 (who, I 
think, is now at Univ. of Illinois, Chicago) and me, 1999-2000 (I'm now in 
NC with the NCDOT Archaeology Section).  My successor at UMB was Leith 
Smith, post-2000, who is still there in case anyone wants to track down such 
gray literature.
