Project review consists of identifying
the project's potential impacts to historic buildings and
structures, historic districts, historic landscapes and settings,
and to known or potential archeological resources. The Division
reviews projects under three regulations:
- Section
106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. The
Division reviews projects when a federal agency is involved
with the project. It is the federal agency's responsibility
to seek comments about the project from the Division.
- 22 VSA 14,
The Vermont Historic Preservation Act, on behalf of the
Vermont Advisory Council on Historic Preservation. The Division
reviews projects when a state agency is involved with the
project. It is the state agency's responsibility to seek
comments about the project from the Division.
- Criterion
8, 10 V.S.A., Chapter 151 (Act 250). The Division reviews
Criterion 8 of Act 250 permit applications. If a project
requires an Act 250 permit, the Division will review project
information submitted directly to our office by a permit
applicant or will review the information contained in the
original application submitted to the Agency of Natural
Resources. However, it is in the applicant's best interest
to contact the Division early in the project planning process
so that comments from the Division can be incorporated into
the project.
