Dr. Roger G. Moore initiated an independent archeological consulting practice based in Houston, Texas, in 1982.  Moore Archeological Consulting, (MAC) has grown to offer its clients comprehensive services in cultural resource management (CRM).  CRM encompasses archeological and historical studies required by state and federal law to determine whether construction projects such as roads, pipelines, parks, etc., will affect significant archeological and historical sites.  Archeological and historic structure surveys are first conducted to determine whether any significant sites are ‘in harm’s way.’  In the rare instances when impact upon a significant archeological site is unavoidable the firm conducts controlled excavations to gather information prior to the site’s destruction.

MAC possesses special expertise in completing archeological investigations in urban contexts, one of Dr. Moore’s pioneering research interests.  The solid academic background and extensive field experience of the expanded staff is combined with a business-like approach to the problems and objectives of cultural resource management consulting.  Senior members of the firm are experienced in working as members of planning and design phase project teams.

These services encompass archeological survey, site testing and mitigation, construction monitoring, historical research, and geoarcheology.  The firm exhibits particular expertise in the specialized sub-discipline of Conflict Archeology, and recently expanded to include historic structures, remote sensing, and underwater archeology.
