Find
out about "Section 106" review?
Section 106 is that portion of the National
Historic Preservation Act which requires federal agencies to take
into account the effects of their actions on historic properties.
("Historic properties" are those historical or archaeological
resources that are listed in or determined eligible for listing
in the National Register of Historic Places.) Agencies must make
a good faith effort to avoid adversely affecting historic properties.
Agencies comply with Section 106 by providing
information (See below) to the State Historic Preservation Officer
(SHPO) and requesting the SHPO's review and comment about whether
there are any historic properties that may be affected by the
activity. The SHPO works with agencies to seek ways to avoid or
mitigate adverse effects to historic properties. Certain
agencies ask their applicants for federal assistance, permits,
etc. to initiate contact with the SHPO.
