In compliance with the Antiquities Code of Texas, the Texas Health and Safety Code, and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, Pape-Dawson archaeologists, bioarchaeologists, and historians worked with the City of Waco to mitigate impacts to the First Street Cemetery, the first public cemetery established in the city. The project included exhumation of more than 200 individuals; skeletal and dental analysis of recovered individuals; archival research; development of a Memorandum of Agreement with the City, National Park Service, and Texas Historical Commission; public outreach; and coordination with the First Street Cemetery Reburial Committee. Remains of several individuals have been reinterred, and a public reburial and dedication cemetery has taken place.
