Section 106 Review Process

The Section 106 Review Process is a methodical evaluation and assessment process required by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 in the United States. It involves identifying and considering the potential impacts of federally funded or licensed projects on historic properties, sites, or resources. The process includes consultation with stakeholders, such as state and tribal historic preservation offices, as well as the public, to determine the significance of the historic resources involved and to develop strategies for avoiding, minimizing, or mitigating adverse effects.
