Treatment Plans
Excavation phases are guided by project-specific plans that describe
the research context and methods to be used to accomplish the tasks.
Plans are reviewed and approved by the client and relevant compliance
agencies.
Testing/Phase
1 Data Recovery
Preliminary excavation phases are designed to determine the nature and
distribution of subsurface features in the project area and whether the
resources meet eligibility requirements for inclusion in the National
Register of Historic Places. Results provide the necessary
data to plan an effective approach to full data recovery, if needed.
Data
Recovery
Mitigation strategies for archaeological sites are tailored to the
specific effects of a project and can include elements of avoidance,
site preservation, and selective data recovery excavations.
Other
Mitigation Measures
Historical and architectural documentation are used to recover
information from National Register-eligible buildings or structures
affected by a project. This documentation typically includes historical
background information, archival research to identify records relating
to the property's use and occupants, measured architectural drawings, a
photographic record, and a descriptive narrative.
