This report details the results of the final phase of archeological investigation of the proposed Three Rivers Flood Protection Project conducted by the Texas Archeological Survey for the Fort Worth District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and represents the fifth in a series reporting on the effects of this project on definable cultural resources. The Three Rivers Flood Protection Project is a plan of improvement under which the city of Three Rivers Will be protected from major flooding by the construction of a levee east of the Frio River. Initiated east of the city (near site 41LK228), the 4.6 mile long levee will extend northward to encircle three-fourths of the city, terminating at site 41LK114. The earthen fill for construction will be alluvial materials procured from selected barrow areas.
