     Greetings!
     Our historic site is an eighteenth century rice plantation, which
     includes an original Georgian mansion. The site's dirt pathways, under
     which are archaeological features, are being subjected to substantial
     erosion. The main pathway runs from the visitor parking area to the
     Big House (i.e. a necessary evil/modern feature).
     We are in need of ideas to:
        1. stop the erosion and damage to features.
        2. provide easier access for our handicapped visitors.
        3. be somewhat 'reversable' to allow for future archaeological
           surveys.
        4. hold up to periodic submersion during spring rains.

     Quite a 'laundry list', I realize.
     Thank y'all in advance,
