Notice of Intent: Stabilization and Repair of the Bartlett Cabin, Pecos National Historical Park: The School of Engineering at the University of Vermont (UVM) will participate with staff from the National Park Service (NPS) in a collaborative program of research, documentation, assessment, training, and treatment at the Bartlett Homestead cabin, located in the Pigeonâ¿¿s Ranch sub-unit of the Glorieta Unit, Pecos National Historical Park. To preserve cultural resources, enhance interpretive opportunities, and improve visitor safety, the UVM will assess current conditions, propose repairs, and execute repairs in the stabilization of the cabin. UVM will assemble a specialized team to conduct the condition assessment, propose treatment strategies, and make repairs. Repair will be addressed using a field school format led by professional timber framers and plaster conservators that will result in training of students and others in the repair techniques to be implemented. These tasks will be conducted in two stages. In the first stage, UVM will assess, analyze, and make recommendations for stabilization, and in the second stage UVM will conduct a field school focused on stabilization of the resource. Staff from UVM and NPS will participate in both stages. NPS will be involved in the project in several ways, including assisting with archival research, collaborating and participating in project development and execution including development of the Field School curriculum and work plan, assisting with logistical needs, participating in on-site project management and field implementation, and providing technical review and support. Public benefits of this project include educational and training components. UVM students, NPS staff, and practicing professionals will be directly involved in all portions of the work including field assessment, organization of site-collected data, data analysis, and the implementation of pilot treatments.
