HomeMy WebLinkAboutNational Register of Historic Places-1/19/2010Notice of Information and Agreement Federally funded projects are subject to the review requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The review process involves consultation with various agencies, groups and individuals. The goal of consultation is to Identify historic properties potentially affected by the undertaking, assess its effects and seek ways to avoid, minimize or mitigate any adverse effects on historic properties. • All CDBG Buyouts must meet all relevant federal and state requirements and regulations to participate in the program. The effects of any one requirement should not be taken to mean other requirements do not apply. • If the end result of the intended CDBG Buyout activity will result in the demolition of a building determined eligible or listed on the National Register of Historic Places, you need to consult with SHPO to determine an appropriate mitigation for this adverse effect. • If the CDBG Buyout will result in rehabilitation and the property is intended to remain in place, the scope of work will need to be reviewed through consultation with SHPO for its potential effects on these historic properties to determine if the work is an adverse affect. It is advisable to consult the Secretary of the Interior Standards to develop a scope of work that will result in a finding and SHPO concurrence of no adverse affect. • For properties with high potential to contain archaeological sites, a trained monitor will need to be present during the demolition or a Phase I survey will need to be completed. • Historic Properties are those properties that are listed on the National Register or are eligible for listing. A property is considered eligible when it meets specific criteria established by the National Park Service (36 CFR part 63). • Under the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) an advisory council on historic preservation was established. This Federal agency oversees the Section 106 process. Recipients can learn more about the council's role, get copies of 36 CFR part 800, and obtain other information about the Section 106 process on the Council's web -site at www.achp.gov. • Under the terms of the Programmatic Agreement under which you are bound by the stipulations of your contract for CDBG Supplemental Disaster Recovery Funding (Jumpstart Federal Program), IDED will provide technical assistance for you to complete the federally mandated Section 106 Process (PROGRAMMATIC AGREEMENT AMONG THE IOWA DEPARTMENT OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, IOWA STATE HISTORIC PRESERVATION OFFICER, AND THE ADVISORY COUNCIL ON HISTORIC PRESERVATION REGARDING SUPPLEMENTAL COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT FUNDING FOR ECONOMIC RECOVERY AND STIMULUS PROJECTS IN IOWA [Fully Executed January 23, 2009, R&C #80900108]). Please feel free to contact the IDED Historic Preservation Specialist as needed. • Failure to conclude consultation on adverse affects prior to demolition constitutes a foreclosure on the Advisory Council's opportunity to comment. This would negate the applicant's ability to successfully demonstrate compliance and would jeopardize their use of federal funds. In the case of a determination of foreclosure, the ACHP issues a public notice and notifies all interested parties, including concurring parties to any agreements. All are given a notice of the finding. The recipient must complete the Section 106 process "prior to the approval of the expenditure of any Federal funds on the undertaking or prior to the issuance of any license".

This work completed new areas where recommendations by the IHSEMD/FEMA reviews were not available. Summary of Results Buildings demonstrated a lack of historic integrity due to an initial lack of workmanship, or an acquired loss of design, workmanship and feeling through alterations and removal of buildings from the neighborhood prior to the flood. Neighborhoods do not exhibit consistency in design, style, and period of construction, type of use, or an overall sense of planned development and convey little more than a somewhat random allotment of residential areas being taken over in the last half of the 20th c. by commercial development. Archaeological recommendations indicate areas of high probability for new but as yet unrecorded sites to be found due to landform, distance to water, soil type, and/or presence of previously recorded sites.
