Abstract

In September, 1975, personnel of the Center for Archaeological Research, The University of Texas at San Antonio, carried out archaeological survey and assessment of areas slated for modification in the Laredo International Bridge II project. The field work followed standard archaeological procedures and was conducted under the terms of an ordinance (dated August 19, 1975) passed by the City Council of Laredo, Texas. We would like to acknowledge our gratitude to Mr. Paul Garza for his assistance during the archaeological investigations. [...] The objective of the survey was to determine the existence of any archaeological or historical resources; to record, identify and appraise the significance of such resources; to evaluate the impact of the proposed con-struction project on each of these resources; and, to provide recommendations for the mitigation of any adverse impacts.
