Re: Project review under the Antiquities Code of Texas and National Historic Preservation Act, Proposed
Lake Highlands Station, Survey Needed (DART/FTA)
Dear Mr. Salin:
Thank you for your correspondence concerning the above referenced project. This letter presents the
comments of the Executive Director of the Texas Historical Commission, the state agency responsible for
administering the Antiquities Code of Texas. We have recently reviewed your letter concerning the
above referenced development project in Dallas County. We do not object to the area being developed,
but the proposed project area must be surveyed by a professional archeologist prior to site development.
This cultural resource survey should include a 100% pedestrian survey of the proposed station tract,
except those areas already surveyed. This survey must conform to the "Archeological Survey Standards
for Texas" (available online at: www.thc.state.tx.us/rulesregs/), and your principal investigator must
contact us to obtain an Antiquities Permit for these investigations. Additionally, a report on the
investigations will have to be produced in conformance with the report standards under the Chapter 26
Rules of the Antiquities Code of Texas. You can obtain lists of most professional archeologists in Texas
(many of which perform contract archeological investigations), on-line at:
htt p//www.counciloftexasarcheoloists.rj or panet.org or www.archaeologyfieldwork.com.
Please note that other potentially qualified archeologists not included on these lists may be used.
Thank youfor yrvr cooperation in this state review process, and for your efforts to preserve the
irreplaceable heritage of Texas. If you have any questions, please contact Mark H. Denton, of our
staff at (512) 463-5711.
Sincerely,
for
F. Lawerence Oaks
