[MassHistPres] Material Alternatives for Historic Rehabilitation

[Ward Hamilton]

There is nothing, in my opinion, that is an acceptable alternative for
slate in a project funded through CPA funds and acceptable per the
Secretary of Interior Standards.

Fiberglass gutters, in lieu of copper gutters, may be acceptable for use on
a historic home.
