Camp Bullis Military Reservation Cultural Resources Management Plan

Summary

The present document follows the requirements for the preparation of a Cultural Resources Management Plan (CRMP) or a Historic Preservation Plan as defined in Army Regulation 420-40. The text is designed to be of use to multiple audiences who are concerned with the management or preservation of the historic properties contained within the limits of Camp Bullis Military Reservation, Bexar and Comal counties, Texas. These audiences include: U.S. Army Medical Command (MEDCOM), Fort Sam Houston installation staff; Camp Bullis staff; state and federal cultural resources managers; professional historic preservationists and archeologists; and the general public.

This CRMP is presented in four sections. Section I is an overview that explains the Department of the Army (DA) policy toward historic properties as well as briefly describing the body of legal requirements necessary for compliance. The overview provides a set of goals to integrate the Camp Bullis and Fort Sam Houston mission with appropriate management of historic properties. The section offers a brief review of the local prehistoric cultural chronology and history and an evaluation of the archeological data and architectural information accumulated at the facility to date. Section II presents a review of potential prehistoric and historic site locations, outlines the appropriate archeological and architectural procedures for inventory and evaluation, and provides a list of the recorded sites that includes their eligibility status for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Section III presents the protection plan requirements established by federal regulations and the treatment plans for those cultural resources that are considered to be significant enough to be designated as historic properties (i.e., eligible for or listed on the NRHP). Section IV details the compliance procedures for all mission-related ground-disturbing activities that may damage historic properties.
