The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), an agency of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), worked with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) to develop a prototype programmatic agreement (PPA) under 36 CFR § 800.14(b)(4) of the regulations implementing Section 106, “Protection of Historic Properties” (36 CFR Part 800). The PPA was authorized in 2014.

The proposed TransWest Express Transmission Line would move energy from Wyoming through Colorado and Utah, ending in southern Nevada, and provide power for up to 1.8 million homes in the southwest each year. The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) consulted with more than 80 parties since 2012 in order to take effects on historic properties from this lengthy transmission line into account.
