Protection of Historic Properties; Proposed Rule ADVISORY COUNCIL ON HISTORIC PRESERVATION

الملخص

The Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (Council) is proposing changes to its regulations in order to implement the 1992 amendments to the National Historic Preservation Act and to improve the Section 106 process, by which Federal agencies consider the effects of their undertakings on historic properties. The proposed changes seek to balance the interests and concerns of various users of the Section 106 process, including Federal agencies, State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPOs), Native Americans and Native Hawaiians, and the public. The revised regulations also respond to the new Section 110 provisions in the 1992 amendments which require Federal agencies to establish historic preservation programs.
