LAWERENCE OAKS, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR The Texas Historical Commission is pleased to announce the allocation of a $1,575.00 grant to the City of Lubbock in conjunction with your participation in the FY 2001 Certified Local Government program (see attached list of approved projects.) The U.S. Department of the Interior, National Park Service, provided funding for this grant under the provisions of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. The National Park Service recently approved your Project Proposal. To remain eligible for this grant allocation, it is necessary for the project coordinator and the project professional, if applicable, to participate in a grant orientation session. Designed to familiarize them with the granting process, this session will provide an opportunity to discuss your project with the Commission staff members responsible for its coordination. Please note that no work should begin prior to your grant orientation session and finalization of a written contract (copy under separate cover) between you and the Texas Historical Commission. Failure to participate in this orientation session and to submit a signed contract before commencement of work on this project will be cause for this grant allocation to revert to the Texas Historical Commission for reallocation to another project. Upon receipt of this letter, please contact Bratten Thomason at (512) 463-5997 to arrange the necessary grant orientation session. We look forward to working with you in this most worthwhile preservation endeavor. Sincerely, F.

September 29. 1983 / Notices generally stated to terms of property types. The purpose of establishing preservation goals is to set forth a "best case" version of how properties in the historic context should be identified. evaluated. registered and treated. Preservation goals should be oriented toward the greatest possible protection of properties in the historic context and should be based on the principle that properties should be preserved in place if possible, through affirmative treatments like rehabilitation. stabilization or restoration. Generally. goals will be specific to the historic context and will often be phrased in terms of property types. Some of these . goals will be related to information needs previously identified for the historic context. Collectively, the goals for a historic context should be a coherent statement of program direction covering all aspects of the context. For each goal, a statement should be prepared identifying: 1. The goal, including the context and property types to which the goal applies and the geographical area in which they are located: 2_ The activities required to achieve the goal; 3. The most appropriate methods or strategies for carrying out the activities: 4. A schedule within which the activities should be completed: and 5. The amount of effort required to accomplish the goal. as well as a way to evaluate progress toward its accomplishment. Setting priorities for goals Once goals have been developed they need to be ranked in importance. Ranking involves examining each goal in light of a number of factors. 1. General social, economic, political and environmental conditions and trends affecting (positively and negatively) the identification. evaluation. registration and treatment of property types in the historic context. Some property types in -the historic context may be'more directly threatened by deterioration. land development patterns. contemporary use patterns. or public perceptions of their value, and such property types should be given priority consideration. 2. Major cost or technical considerations affecting the identification. evaluation and treatment of property types in the historic context. The identification or treatment of some property types may be technically possible but the cost prohibitive: or techniques may not currently perfected (for example, the identification of submerged sites or objects, or the evaluation of sites containing material for which dating techniques are still being developed). 3. Identification, evaluation. registration and treatment activities previously carried out for property types in the historic context. If a number of properties representing one aspect of a historic context have been recorded or preserved. treatment of additional members of that property type may receive lower priority than treatment of a property type for which no examples have yet been recorded or preserved. This approach ensures that the focus of recording or preserving all. elements of the historic context is retained, rather than limiting activities to preserving properties representing only some aspects of the context. The result of considering the goals in light of these concerns will be a list of refined goals ranked in order of priority. Integrating Individual Contexts— Creating the Preservation Plan When historic contexts overlap geographically, competing goals and priorities must be integrated for effective preservation planning. The ranking of goals for each historic context must be reconciled to ensure that recommendations for one context do not contradict those for another. This important step results in an overall set of priorities for several historic contexts and a Iist of the activities to be performed to achieve the ranked goals. When applied to a specific geographical area, this is the preservation plan for that area. It is expected that in many instances historic contexts will overlap geographically. Overlapping contexts are likely to occur in two combinations—those that were defined at the same scale (i.e.. textile development in Smithtown 1850-1910 and Civil War in Smithtown 1855-1870) and those defined at different scales (i.e.. Civil War in Smithtown and Civil War in the Shenandoah Valley). The contexts may share the same property types, although the shared property t}'pes will probably have different levels of importance, or they may group the same properties into different property types, reflecting either a different scale of analysis or a different historical perspective. As previously noted, many of the goals that the formulated for a historic context will focus on the property types defined for that context. Thus it is critical that the integration of goals include the explicit consideration of the potential for shared property type membership by individual properties. For example. when the same property types arc used by two contexts. reconciling the goals will require weighing the level of importance assigned to each property type. The degree to which integration of historic contexts must involve reconciling property types may be lirpited by the coordinated development of historic contexts used at various levels. Integration with Management Frameworks Preservation goals and priorities. are adapted to land touts through integration with other pladning concerns. This integration must involve the resolution of conflicts that arise when competing resources occupy the same land base. Successful resolution of these conflicts can often be achieved through judicious combination of inventory, evaluation and treatment activities. Since historic properties are irreplaceable, these activities should be heavily weighted to discourage the destruction of significant properties and to be compatible with the primary land use.

Identification activities are undertaken to gather information about historic properties in an area. The scope of these activities will depend on: existing knowledge about properties: goals for survey activities developed in the planning process: and current management needs. Standard L Identification of Historic Properties Is Undertaken to the Degree Required To Make Decisions Archival research and survey activities should be designed to gather the information necessary to achieve defined preservation goals. The 44722 Federal Register / Vol. 48, No. 190 / Thursday, September 29. 1983 / NntirPc Archival Research Archival or background research is generally undertaken prior to any field survey. Where identification is undertaken as part of a comprehensive planning process, background research may have taken place as part of the development of the historic contexts (see the Guidelines for Preservation Planning). In the absence of previously developed historic contexts, archival research should address specific issues and topics. It should not duplicate Previous work Sources should include, but not be limited to, historical mgps, atlases, tax records, photographs, ethnographies, folklife documentation, oral histories and other studies, as well as standard historical reference works, as appropriate for the research problem. (See the' Guidelines for Historical Documentation for additional discussion.) Field Survey The variety of field survey techniques available, in combination with the varying levels of effort that may be assigned, give great flexibility to implementing field surveys. It is important that the selection of field survey techniques and level of effort be responsive to the management needs and preservation goals that direct the survey effort. Survey techniques may be loosely grouped into two categories, according to their results. First are the techniques that result in the characterization of a region's historic properties. Such techniques might include "windshield" or -alk-over surveys, with perhaps a limited use of sub -surface survey. For purposes of these Guidelines, this kind If survey is termed a "reconnaissance." The second category of survey techniques is those that permit the identification and description of specific historic properties in an area. this kind of survey effort is termed "intensive." the terms "iecornaissance" and "intensive" are scmetimes defined to mean particular survey techniques. Eenerally with regard to prehistoric sites. The use of the terms here is general and is not intended to redefine the terms as they are used elsewhere. Reconnaissonce survey might be most Profitably employed when gathering data to refine a developed historic context --such as checking on the Presence or absence of expected Property types, to define specific Iroperty types or to estimate the Distribution of historic properties in an irea.

These activities may include archival research and other techniques to develop historic contexts, sampling an area to gain a broad understanding of the kinds of properties it contains, or examining every property in an area as a basis for property specific decisions. Where possible, use of quantitative methods is important because it can produce an estimate, whose reliability may be assessed, of the kinds of historic properties that may be present in the studied area. Identification activities should use a search procedure consistent with the management needs for information and the character of the area to be investigated. Careful selection of methods. techniques and level of detail is necessary so that the gathered information will provide a sound basis for making decisions. Standard 11. Results of Identification Activities ore integrated Into the Preservation Planning Process Results of identification activities are reviewed for their effects on previous planning data. Archival research or field survey may refine the understanding of one or more historic contexts and may alter the need for additional survey or study of particular property types. Incorporation of the results of these activities into the planning process is necessary to ensure that the planning process is always based on the best available information. Standard 111. Identification Activities include Explicit Procedures for Record. Keeping and Information Distribution Information gathered in identification activities is useful in other preservation planning activities only when it is systematically gathered and recorded, and made available to those responsible for preservation planning. The results of identification activities should be reported in a format that summarizes the design and methods of the survey, provides a basis for others to review the results. and states where information un identified properties is maintained. However, sensitive information, like the location of fragile resources. must be safeguarded from general public distribution. Secretary of the interior's Guidelines for Identification Introduction These Guidelines link the Standards for Identification with more specific guidance and technical information. The utdelines outline one approach to meet the Standards for Identification. Agencies, organizations and individuals proposing to approach identification differently may wish to review their approaches with the National Park Service. The Guidelines are organized as follows: Role of Identification In the Planning Process Performing Identification Integrating Identification Results Reporting Identification Results Recommended Sources of Technical Information Role of Identification in the Planning Process Identification is undertaken for the purpose of locating historic properties and is composed of a number of activities which include• but are not limited to archival research, informant interviews, field survey and analysis. Combinations of these activities may be selected and appropriate levels of effort assigned to produce a flexible series of options. Generally identification activities will have multiple objectives. reflecting complex management needs. Within a comprehensive planning process, identification is normally undertaken to acquire property -specific information needed to refine a particular historic context or to develop any new historic contexts. (See the Guidelines for Preservation Planning for discussion of information gathering to establish plans and to develop historic contexts.) The results of -identification activities are then integrated into the planning process so that subsequent activities are based on the most up-to-date information. Identification activities are also undertaken in the absence of a comprehensive planning process, most frequently as part of a specific land -use or development project. Even lacking a formally developed preservation planning process, the benefits of efficent- goal -directed research may be obtained by the development of localized historic contexts, suitable in scale for the project area, as part of the background research which customarily occurs before field survey efforts. Performing Identification Research Design Identification activities are essentially research activities for which a statement of objectives or research design should be prepared before work is performed. Within the framework of a comprehensive planning process, the research design provides a vehicle for integrating the various activities performed during the identification process and for linking Lhose activities directly to the goals and the historic context(s) for which those goals were defined. The research design stipulates the logical integration of historic context(s) and Geld and laboratory methodology. Although these tasks may be performed individually, they will not contribute to the greatest extent possible in increasing information on the historic context unless they relate to the defined goals and to each other. Additionally, the research design provides a focus for the integration of interdisciplinary information- It ensures that the linkages between specialized activities are real, logical and address the defined research questions. Identification activities should be guided by the research design and the results discussed in those terms. (See Reporting Identification Results) The research design should include the following: 1. Objectives of the identification activities. For example: to characterize the range of historic properties in a region: to identify the number of properties associated with a context: to g; -,her information to determine which properties in an area are significant. The statement of objectives should refer to current. knowledge about the historic contexts or property types, based on background research or assessments of previous research. It should clearly define the physical extent Of the area to be investigated and the amount and kinds of information to be gathered about properties in the area. 2. Methods to be used to obtain the information. For example: archival research or field survey. Research methods should be clearly and specifically related to research problems. Archival research or survey methods should be carefully explained so that others using the gathered information can understand how the information was obtained and what its possible limitations or biases are. The methods should be compatible with the past and present environmental character of the geographical area under study and the kinds of properties most likely to be present in the area. 3. The expected results and the reasons for those expections. Expectations about the kind, number. location, character and condition of historic properties are generally based on a combination of background research. proposed hypotheses, and analogy to the kinds of properties known to exist in areas of similar environment or history. • b �•�- r • �..

In addition, the historic context narrative, the definition of property types and the planning goals for evaluation and treatment are all adjusted as necessary to accommodate the new data.

A summary of the survey results should be available for examination and distribution. Identified properties should then be evaluated for possible inclusion in appropriate inventories. Protection of information about archeological sites or other properties that may be threatened by dissemination of that information is necessary. These may include fragile archeological properties or properties such as religious sites, structures, or objects, whose cultural value would be compromised by public knowledge of the property's location.

Information about Performing surveys of historic bridges and identifying the types of properties encountered. Secretary of the interior's Standards for Evaluation Evaluation is the process of determining whether identified Properties meet defined criteria of significance and therefore should be included in an inventory of historic properties determined to meet the criteria. The criteria employed vary depending on the inventory's use in resource management. Standard L Evaluation of the Significonce of Historic Properties Uses Established Criteria - The evaluation of historic properties employs criteria to determine which Properties are significant Criteria should therefore focus on historical, architectural, archeological, engineering and cultural values, rather than on treatments. A statement of the minimum information necessary to evaluate , properties against the criteria should be Provided to direct information gathering activities. Because the National Register of Historic Places is a major focus of Preservation activities on the Federal, State and local levels, the National Register criteria have been widely adopted not only as required for Federal Purposes. but for State and local inventories as well. The National Historic Landmark criteria and other criteria used for inclusion of properties in State historic site files are other examples of criteria with different management purposes. Standard 11. Evaluation of Significance Applies the Criteria Within Historic Contexts Properties are evaluated using a historic context that identifies the significant patterns that properties represent and defines expected property types against which individual properties may be compared. Within this comparative framework, the criteria for evaluation lake on particular meaning with regard to individual properties. Standard iII Evaluation Results it,, A List or Inventory of Significant Properties That Is Consulted in Assigning Registration and Treatment Priorities The evaluation process and the subsequent development of an inventor} of significant properties is an on-going activity. Evaluation of the significance of a property should be completed before registration is considered and before preservation treatments are selected. The inventory entries should contain sufficient information for subsequent activities such as registration or treatment of properties, including an evaluation statement that makes clear the significance of the Property within one or more historic contexts.
