77 ut ug lc Architectural History Earlier studies have conducted extensive historic architectural surveys for portions of Durham and Orange counties. The first task will be to conduct a comprehensive review of the existing studies to ensure effective use of previously gathered data. URS will then conduct additional field surveys within those portions of the APE that have not been previously investigated, in order to identify any resources that are listed in or potentially eligible for listing in the NHRP. Where needed, URS will conduct an intensive-level architectural field survey which includes determining the APE and identifying, analyzing, and evaluating all properties greater than fifty years of age in the APE (or properties less than fifty years of age that could qualify for the National Register under Criterion Consideration G). URS will photograph the principle building on each site and will also document auxiliary buildings, structures, landscape features, setting issues, integrity issues, and representative streetscapes. Photographs will be captured in a digital format and will be labeled according to guidelines set forth by the North Carolina Historic Preservation Office (HPO). URS will also develop historic and architectural contexts and eligibility requirements, complete evaluations of National Register eligibility, and recommend carefully delineated and justified National Register boundaries. URS will identify any locally-designated properties or districts in the APE and provide contact names and numbers for those with jurisdiction in these areas. First URS will submit photos and a building inventory for all properties over fifty years of age in the APE. URS will follow the State of North Carolina's guidelines "Presenting a Historic Resources Inventory" and will provide concise integrity and eligibility statements for each property for discussion during the review of the building inventory with the State HPO. The location of each property identified in the survey will be keyed to a GIS-based map that also includes the limits of the APE. County PIN's or 911 addresses are required for each property. A brief justification of the APE will be included as a part of the building inventory.These properties will be shown to the HPO during a photo review session. Only those properties which are listed on the National Register, listed on the State Study List, and those requested for further evaluation by the HPO during the photo review session will be evaluated in-depth in a subsequent survey report. (If there are no properties within the APE that require extensive analysis, then URS will submit the photos, building inventory, and survey site forms to the Historic Architecture Supervisor and the studies are complete.) URS will combine the existing information and any field data collected into a comprehensive analysis of the effects on all historic architecture resources listed in or determined eligible for listing in the NRHP. The results will be presented in a report documenting the results of the background and field research and summarizing the historic architecture resources in the project APE. A summary of this report will also be provided and incorporated into the DEIS.
