The SHPO has a maximum of 30 calendar days
to respond to most types of reviews. However, staff endeavors
to respond within two weeks.
Three OAHP staff spend most or part of
their time reviewing between 2000 and 3000 projects a year in
consultation with staff archaeologists, historians and architectural
historians. Projects range from U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 404
permit file searches to cultural resource survey reports with
inventory forms, architectural drawings to NEPA (National Environmental
Policy Act) documents, cultural resource management plans to regulations
revisions and one-page project descriptions to complex multiparty
agreements.
We will need the following information
in order to provide you with the most accurate advice:
- What is the name, if known,
and address of the building?
- How old is the building?
- Is there federal or state
agency involvement?
- Is the building locally
landmarked?
The State Register of Historic Places Act
or a local landmark ordinance may provide some level of historic
property protection or consideration when there is no federal
involvement.
