This response represents the comments of the State Historic Preservation Officer, the Executive Director of the Texas Historical Commission (THC), pursuant to review under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The review staff, led by Charles Peveto, Rebecca Shelton, has completed its review and has made the following determinations based on the information submitted for review: Above -Ground Resources • Property/properties are not eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places.
