An Archaeological Survey for the Coleman County Special Utility District Phase 7 Water Line Project in Coleman County Texas

Abstract

An archaeological survey of three segments of a proposed 26.1 mile water line and a 60 foot x 60 foot tract that will be the site of proposed expansion to an existing water storage tank in central County County, Texas was performed on October 14, 2008 by Brazos Valley Research Associates (BVRA) for the Coleman County Special Utility District (SUD) under Antiquities Permit 5057. In all, the area comprises 1.18 acres. The areas investigated included two creek crossings, one high hill, and a proposed water storage tank expansion site. No sites were found, and no artifacts were collected. Therefore, it is recommended that the Coleman County SUD be allowed to proceed with their project with no further consultation from the Texas Historical Commission (THC). Copies of the report are on file at the THC, Texas Archeological Research Laboratory (TARL); Coleman County SUD; and BVRA.
