Fort Worth archeology surveys provide essential information about potentially significant sites falling within a project area. This information may be a critical component to project design and planning. The investigation can identify and define cultural and archaeological information that may require avoidance and may materially change the following steps of project development.
Cultural Resources and Their Effects on Development
Archeology surveys in Fort Worth TX identify areas and objects of historic significance. Typically, at least 50 years of age, federal and state law offers some protections to these resources. Environmental permitting may require archeological survey to identify potentially significant sites.
If a project is being conducted on property owned or managed by a political subdivision of the state, is being funded by states funds, or may affect an historic cemetery or landmark, the Texas Historical Commission (THC) will request Fort Worth archeology surveys before breaking ground on a project. This process consists of fieldwork, research, and report preparation.
The final report summarizes the findings of the archeology surveys in Fort Worth TX and is filed with the lead review agency, and project proponent. Whether the site contained cultural resources or not, the final report is filed to fulfil state requirements.
If the archeology surveys in Fort Worth TX determine the existence of cultural resources, suggestions for project redesign and site avoidance are made to minimize disturbing the significant area. In some instances, continued monitoring during the construction phase becomes necessary.
