Abstract HHM staff routinely photographically document properties at naval activities as part of NRHP eligibility surveys and ICRMPs using 35mm film cameras and digital format cameras. At other times, the Navy has tasked HHM with photographing NRHP-eligible buildings and structures at various activities as part of mitigative documentation packages. Depending on the SHPO requirements, HHM has used both large-format (4" x 5" negative) and 35mm formats. In 1997, HHM photographically documented four...

Work tasks included photography of all identified resources, development of an historic context, documentation of all architectural/ engineering features for each resource, archival research for selected properties (including deed research), and evaluation of all resources for NRHP eligibility. One property, a farmhouse, was recommended as eligible for NRHP listing under Criterion C, at...

Abstract HHM acting as a subcontractor to Turner, Collie, and Braden, prepared an Integrated Cultural Resources Management Plan (ICRMP) to assist Naval Air Station Kingsville, Texas with the management of significant cultural resources under its stewardship. HHM identified and evaluated all the structures at the base paying particular attention to those built prior to 1954. Of the 244 structures surveyed, 6 resources were determined eligible for the NRHP. Consequently, a primary goal of this ICRMP...
