Thanks for the update. We appreciate your work and assistance on this project. We will get the trenches
covered.
Thanks, again.

Steve,
I am writing on behalf of Dr. Alston Thorns to let you and your
staff know that field work at Veteran's Park/Athletic Complex was
finished on June 2, 2000. There are still open backhoe trenches and
test pits at the south and north central part of the property which can
be backfilled at your convenience. Based on our investigations we will
recommend that there are no significant archaeological sites on the
property. The site that was found has been determined to be disturbed
by natural processes. Our recommendation is that construction of the
park can continue as planned.
We will be sending you an interim report by June 30, 2000 as
outlined in the revised schedule that has been agreed upon given that
the revised contract was not signed and put into effect until April
2000.
