Conceptual Overview, Program Comment for Regular Maintenance, Capital Projects, and Leasing at NPS Mission 66-Era Facilities (1945-72) for Compliance with Section 106 of NHPA
The National Park Service (NPS) preserves unimpaired the natural and cultural resources and values of the National Park System for the enjoyment, education, and inspiration of this and future generations. NPS manages 425 park units covering more than 85 million acres in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. territories. The NPS has jurisdiction over 7,561 historic properties listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).
The NPS Cultural Resources Stewardship, Partnerships, and Science (CRPS) Directorate provides leadership for the protection and interpretation of the nation's heritage, guides a national historic preservation program that embraces national parks and heritage resources, engages all American peoples with the places and stories that make up their national identity, and serves as a model for the stewardship of cultural resources throughout the world.
NPS CRPS developed this conceptual overview for a Program Comment (Program Comment) to serve as the basis for consultation on a new optional compliance method for park superintendents to use to meet their responsibilities under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA, 54 U.S.C. § 306108, Section 106) for certain undertakings focused on NPS facilities built between 1945 and 1972 (Mission 66-era).
All comments received during consultation will inform the nature and scope of the NPS agency request to the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) for the Program Comment, which NPS plans to submit in 2024.
