The short term indicators were absolutely achieved of completing the historic structures report and providing the information necessary to plan for future stability of the Norris Camp buildings and make decisions about work priorities. The work will also help in future historic interpretation and public use (including accessibility) of the Camp. The results were the product of the contractor Mina Adsit who did an extremely thorough job of researching the background of Norris Camp, conducting the structural analyses, and making recommendations regarding work priorities and public interpretation. The results from this grant will help greatly in achieving the intermediate and long term outcomes of preparing plans for and completing historic building maintenance and rehabilitation construction.
