The
Jaeger Company was retained by the North Carolina Department of Transportation
to provide cultural resource assessment services in an on-call, two-year
contract. The Jaeger Company's responsibilities consisted of conducting
surveys, making identifications, performing analyses, and completing
evaluations of historic architectural and landscape architectural
resources located within the study areas of certain highway projects.
The completion of a Historic Architecture Survey Report is an important first step in the Section 106 compliance process. After a preliminary survey to determine the area of potential effect of the proposed highway project, historic properties are identified through review of existing documentation and a historic resources survey. Properties fifty years or older are evaluated to determine eligibility for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. Documentation of these properties, including architectural and historical summaries, photographs, site maps and floor plans, is gathered for the preparation of the Historic Architecture Survey Report. All work was in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior's Standards and Guidelines for Archaeology and Historic Preservation. |
