Re: Draft report for Denton Tap Road investigations
(City, of Coppell, T2, T19, T27, T34, TAC # 1890)
Dear Mr. Banks:
We are in receipt of the revised draft report entitled Cultural Resources Investigation Denton Tap
Road ST 94-01 Dallas County, Texas. After reviewing the document, we find it is greatly
improved and addresses our concerns adequately. We concur with your conclusion that bridge
construction will have no effect on sites 41DL252 or 41DL296. We have no additional specific
comments or changes to recommend. The project may proceed without further consultation with
this office.
We look forward to receiving 20 copies of the final report along with a completed Abstracts in
Texas Contract Archeology form. If we may be of further assistance, please call Bill Martin of our
staff at 512/463-5867.
Sincerely,
\
