Draft Section 106 Programmatic Agreement - November 2024

Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) requires that Federal agencies consider the effects of projects they fund, permit, license, or approve, on historic properties that are listed in or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. As part of its evaluation of the proposed easements, the NPS is developing a Section 106 Programmatic Agreement (PA) with the Alaska State Historic Preservation Officer (AK SHPO) and Cook Inlet Region, Inc (CIRI). 36 CFR § 800.14(b)(1)(ii) of the NHPA allows for the use of a PA "[w]hen effects on historic properties cannot be fully determined prior to approval of an undertaking." Your comments on the draft Programmatic Agreement, including the proposed Area of Potential Effect (APE) which is the geographic area where the project may directly or indirectly impact historic properties, will help to inform NPS discussions with AK SHPO and CIRI.

Comments on the draft PA will be accepted November 5 through December 5, 2024 at 11:59MT.
