B. Freeman Ranch is not included on a city map because it is not inside San Marcos city
limits.
C. Topo Map Coverage: (USGS 2015)
3. Wimberley Quadrangle, 1964: This historical map covering the Freeman Ranch
shows only 3 buildings existent in 1964. Therefore, some of the buildings on Freeman
Ranch are older, although many new buildings and structures have been installed (USGS
2015).
See Appendix VI for Wimberley Quadrangle, 1964 map.
4. Since the Freeman Ranch is not within city limits, there is no Sanborn Map that covers
the site.

Christi, TX (USGS 2015)

Edwards Aquifer in the form of water wells onsite (Freeman Center 2015).
D. Solid Waste Production and Disposal: The solid waste production and
disposal at the Freeman Ranch is handled by Texas Disposal Systems.
VI.
Building(s) on site.
A. Description: The buildings on our site at Freeman Ranch include a small red
shed with a red water tank, an office used to receive visitors and provide
information, a long storage shed used to house vehicles and larger ranch
equipment, a barn containing stalls to house livestock (no livestock were
observed), a shed containing a tractor and other tools haphazardly arranged,
and a medium sized structure with closed doors.
B. Date of Construction: Some of the buildings on Freeman Ranch were
constructed over 100 years ago. Therefore, ceiling tiles, floor tiles, and wall
boards probably contain asbestos. Additionally, the presence of lead paint on the
site is probable. Some of the buildings have lead-based solder along the pipes.
However, since the pipes are insulated by heavy limestone, the lead-based solder
in the pipes is not a cause for alarm.
D. Since most of the buildings on the Freeman Ranch are over 100 years old, we
expect the use of lead paint and asbestos in the buildings. However, these
should not be cause for alarm as long as the buildings remain undisturbed. The
presence of lead soldering in the underground pipes is mitigated by a thick
insulating layer of limestone.
