2022 Parkwide Routine Maintenance and Repair of Non-Historic Buildings/Structures Programmatic CE

This PCE is intended to cover routine interior and exterior maintenance within the developed footprint of non-historic buildings and structures and applies to all buildings that are less than 50 years old and are not listed in the Cultural Resources Inventory System (CRIS). Interior maintenance includes upgrading of facilities to meet code, painting, floor and window coverings, wall repairs, and installation and replacement of appliances and utilities in buildings. Exterior maintenance includes painting, roof replacement and repairs, masonry, and fencing. Within historic districts and cultural landscapes, exterior repairs to non-historic buildings are limited to replacement in kind only. The Secretary of the Interior's Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties specifies that replacement in kind means that "the replacement material must match the old, both physically and visually (e.g. wood with wood)." Any modifications to the exterior of a building in a historic district or cultural landscape would require case by case review by appropriate Resources Management and Science Division (RMS) and Historic Preservation subject-matter experts.

All work covered under this PCE will be done in accordance with applicable codes. Standard construction tools and equipment will be used in all work, and include portable power and hand tools. Underground Service Alert (USA Dig) will be contacted a minimum of 48 hours prior to any planned digging to locate utilities. At this time, RMS will be automatically notified to identify the potential to affect archeological sites and to develop appropriate treatment measures, if necessary (including in previously disturbed areas).
