PART 63_DETERMINATIONS OF ELIGIBILITY FOR INCLUSION IN THE NATIONAL 

REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES--Table of Contents

 

Sec. 63.3  Procedures to be applied when the Agency and the State 

Historic Preservation Officer agree a property is eligible.



    If during the consultation described in Sec. 63.2(c), both the 

agency and the State Historic Preservation Officer agree that a property 

meets the Criteria, the Federal agency or the State Historic 

Preservation Officer shall forward to the Keeper of the National 

Register (a) a letter signed by the agency stating that the agency and 

the State Historic Preservation Officer agree that the property is 

eligible for inclusion in the National Register, and (b) a statement 

signed by the State Historic Preservation Officer that in his opinion 

the property is eligible for the National Register. Either the letter or 

the statement must contain substantive information on the property, 

including a description, specific boundaries, its significance under 

National Register Criteria, and an explanation of why the property is 

eligible for listing in the National Register. The Keeper of the 

National Register shall give written notice of his determination to both 

the agency and the State Historic Preservation Officer within 10 working 

days of receipt. If the property has not been accurately identified and 

evaluated, the Keeper will inform the agency and the State Historic 

Preservation Officer within 10 working days and will recommend that the 

agency follow the process set forth at Sec. 63.2. Notwithstanding such 

recommendation, the Federal agency or the Keeper of the National 

Register may consider the property eligible for the purpose of obtaining 

the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's comments. Documentation 

concerning properties determined eligible for the National Register 

shall be kept on file by the agency and the State Historic Preservation 

Officer.
