Properties associated with this context may be evaluated under Criteria a, c, and/or d. <br />The first registration requirement is that the property had to have operated in a ranching related <br />function for the majority of the time between 2881 and 1944. The second requirement is that <br />the physical charactersrics of a ranch must be present, specifically that the buildings be <br />vernacular in style. The individual buildings and structures must represent their condition, <br />configuration and fabric as they did when built to allow interpretation of locally practiced <br />construction techniques. Additions or modifications must not impair the quality of the historic <br />• fabric (design, materials, and workmanship) of the individual buildings, contributing buildings <br />within a district or the overall district. For the buildings to be considered significant under <br />Criterion c their materials and methods of construction must be consistent with the descriptions <br />given above. <br />For a district to be eligible the key components of a farm or ranch must be present. Specifically <br />there must be a main house, there must be associated animal care structures such as a barn or <br />corrals, or agricultural structures such as grain bins or machine sheds reflective of the type of <br />agriculture practiced at the farm or ranch. Finally, the district and/or contributing resources <br />must be at least fifty years old and for those structures and buildings not dating to the period of <br />significance, they must help interpret the evolutionary changes in methods or techniques in <br />ranching that took place at the ranch. No National Register exceptions apply to this property <br />type. The individual buildings and [he district must be in their original location or their location <br />during the period of significance and the setting must be present to convey their historic feeling. <br />If the individual buildings have lost their ability to convey either their design, materials, <br />workmanship, or character/function within the district through natural deterioration or the <br />activities of man during or after the period of significance, then those specific buildings shall <br />be considered non-contributing. Resources will be considered significant under Criterion d ii <br />they can offer important information pertinent to one of the research topics discussed above and <br />maintain their azchaeological integrity vis a vis their focus as defined in National <br />Register Bulletin 36. <br />r <br />14 <br />
