The Engineer shall perform limited non-archeological historic-age resource studies related to compliance with Section 106 and Section 110 of the NHPA (36 CFR 800). Such studies include Project Coordination Requests (PCR). All deliverables shall be written to be understood by the public and must be in accordance with current Environmental Compliance Toolkit guidance published by the State’s Environmental Affairs Division and in effect as of the date of receipt of the documents or documentation to be reviewed and Attachment C to this contract. In accordance with the State’s NEPA MOU, on the cover page of each biological evaluation or assessment, historic properties or cultural resources report, section 4(f) evaluation, or other analyses prepared under the authority granted by the MOU, the Engineer shall insert the following language in a way that is conspicuous to the reader or include in a CE project record: DocuSign Envelope ID: 96ECF328-ADFC-48E2-AAEF-44272BE1E265 "The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried-out by TxDOT pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated December 16, 2014, and executed by FHWA and TxDOT." Historic resource studies shall be performed and documented at sufficient levels to satisfy the State’s Environmental Affairs Division requirements for determining whether further historic, non- archeological surveys are required. Deliverables shall be transmitted to the State in electronic and paper formats and meet the requirements set for in the State’s Environmental Compliance Toolkits.
Historic Resource Identification, Evaluation and Documentation Services. 33.1 The Technical Expert shall perform non-archeological historic-age resource studies related to compliance with Section 106 and Section 110 of the NHPA (36 CFR §800). Such studies include, but are not limited to non-archeological historic-age resource surveys, research and documentation efforts leading to historic context statements, NRHP nomination-level property documentation, HABS/HAER documents, and other mitigation activities such as creating, managing or updating inventories of historic-age properties. Identification, evaluation and documentation tasks shall be completed in accordance with the provisions of the Archeology and Preservation: Secretary of the Interior’s Standards and Guidelines (48 FR Parts 44716 et seq. and requirements used by those of the National Park Service, and previously published in 36 CFR Part 61 (SOI Standards), and all TxDOT Environmental Compliance Toolkits.
Historic Resource Identification, Evaluation and Documentation Services. SWCA will perform limited non-archeological historic-age resource studies related to compliance with Section 106 and Section 110 of the NHPA (36 CFR 800). Prior to conducting formal historic resource investigations, a Project Coordination Requests (PCR) will be prepared and approved to determine if further studies are warranted. SWCA conducted a preliminary review for non-archeological historic properties in compliance with the NHPA and the ACT. No buildings were identified in the project corridor during the historic period. However, historic aerials show that Buffalo Bayou had been lined with concrete by 1958, which could require investigation into the significance of the infrastructure. SWCA will complete a Project Coordination Request (PCR) for Historic Studies in ECOS to determine the significance of the Bayou. SWCA assumes that the concrete work associated with the channelization of Buffalo Bayou is not eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Therefore, it is believed that the PCR form will be sufficient, and no further work will be required. However, if it is determined that additional archival research or fieldwork and associated reporting are going to be required by TxDOT or any other permitting agencies to document the significance of this resource, additional funding will be required. The PCR shall comply with the TxDOT Environmental Compliance Toolkits provided by the State’s Environmental Affairs Division in effect as of the date of the receipt of the documents.
