Additional information provided by <br />these parties may cause our office to re-evaluate our comments and recommendations. <br />If previously unidentified archaeological resources are discovered in the course of the project, work must be <br />interrupted until the resources are properly evaluated in terms of the National Register of Historic Places <br />eligibility criteria (36 CFR 60.4) in consultation with our office. <br />Thank you for the opportunity to comment. If we may be of further assistance, please contact Mark Tobias, <br />Section 106 Compliance Manager, at (303) 866-4674 or mark. tobias&state.co.us. <br />Skcerely, <br />f <br />,$teve Turner, AIA <br />State Historic Preservation Officer <br />SI'/mt <br />
