Overview
Several federal and state laws direct government agencies to take into consideration the effects of their actions on historic resources. Under these laws, consultation with SHPO is required.The goal of the consultation is to find ways to avoid harm to historic properties. If impacts cannot be avoided then the SHPO works to minimize or mitigate the adverse effects.
