included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of 
Historic Places at the Broken Bow Re-Regulation Dam Hydropower Project 
No. 12470-001 (Oklahoma SHPO File Number 1069-05).

Commission proposes to draft in consultation with certain parties 
listed below. The executed programmatic agreement would be incorporated
