A key responsibility of the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) is to administer the requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), a review process that ensures historic properties are considered during the development of any federal project. The ACHP’s Office of Federal Agency Programs (OFAP) coordinates this responsibility.

This document offers guidance on preservation conditions, which are restrictions and conditions on transfers of federal real property put in place prior to transfer to ensure the long-term preservation of a historic property's historic significance.

You can become one of many professionals working for an Indian tribe, Native Hawaiian organization, federal or state agency, intertribal organization, museum, or private cultural resources management firm in the field of historic preservation. The field of historic preservation is broad and multi-disciplinary!

Overview The regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act specify that when commenting on an undertaking affecting a National Historic Landmark, the ACHP may request a report from the Secretary of the Interior under Section 213 of the Act to assist it in the consultation. The preparation of these reports, like other functions assigned to the Secretary under the Act, is carried out by the National Park Service (NPS) on the Secretary’s behalf.
