A process that will streamline historic review requirements under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) for almost 200,000 bridges nationwide saving approximately $78 million has been put in place by the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) in concert with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and other agencies.

To coincide with the 40th Anniversary of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA), the ACHP developed a newspaper insert that focuses on the importance of historic preservation and the historic preservation infrastructure that was created by the NHPA. The insert was developed in partnership with the History Channel and the Newspaper In Education Institute. It first appeared in the Washington Times.

The Preserve America Executive Order directs federal agencies to advance the protection, enhancement, and contemporary use of federal historic properties and to promote partnerships for the preservation and use of historic properties, particularly through heritage tourism.

Prototype Programmatic Agreements [36 CFR § 800.14(b)(4)] may be used for the same type of program or undertaking in more than one case or area and typically establish efficiencies and protocols for implementing these undertakings.

It is vitally important for federal agencies to effectively monitor the expiration dates of Section 106 memoranda of agreement or programmatic agreements (MOAs/PAs). If necessary, this includes coordinating the drafting, commenting, and execution of amendments to the duration stipulation prior to the agreement’s expiration. Once an agreement expires, it cannot be amended, even to extend its duration – quite simply, no agreement to amend exists following expiration.
