An Archaeological Survey of the 23 Acre Matagorda County Birding Nature Center in North Central Matagorda County, Texas
Abstract
Brazos Valley Research Associates (BVRA) conducted a 100% pedestrian survey of a 23 acre tract of land, the site of the proposed Matagorda County Birding Nature Center in north-central Matagorda County, Texas on May 9-10, 1999. Both State and Federal agencies were involved in this project that was conducted under Texas Antiquities Committee permit number 2182 and COE permit 21610. The project area was investigated by shovel probing and backhoe trenching. No prehistoric or historic sites were identified in the project area, and it is recommended that construction be allowed to proceed as planned. Copies of the final report are on file at the Division of Archeology, Texas Historical Commission and Texas Archeological Research Laboratory in Austin, Texas; the Corps of Engineers, Galveston District; Matagorda County Nature Center, Inc.; and BVRA in Bryan, Texas.
