    The Commission staff is consulting with the Arkansas State Historic 
Preservation Officer (hereinafter, SHPO) and the Advisory Council on 
Historic Preservation (hereinafter, Council) pursuant to the Council's 
regulations, 36 CFR part 800, implementing Section 106 of the National 
Historic Preservation Act, as amended, (16 U.S.C. Section 470 f), to 
prepare and execute a memorandum of agreement for managing properties 
included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register of 
Historic Places at Project Nos. 4204, 4660, and 4659.
    The memorandum of agreement, when executed by the Commission, the 
SHPO, and possibly the Council (36 CFR 800.6), would satisfy the

filed by the City of Batesville, Arkansas and Independence County, 
Arkansas to change the route of the unconstructed transmission line and 
to construct a new substation. The Commission's responsibilities 
pursuant to Section 106 for the above projects would be fulfilled 
through the memorandum of agreement, which the Commission proposes to 
draft in consultation with certain parties listed below. The executed 
memorandum of agreement would be incorporated into any orders amending 
the licenses.
