The Commission staff is consulting with the Alabama and Georgia
State Historic Preservation Officer (hereinafter, SHPOs) 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 programmatic agreement
for managing properties included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the
National Register of Historic Places at Project Nos. 2146, 82, and 618.
The programmatic agreement, when executed by the Commission, the
SHPOs, and the Council, would satisfy the Commission's Section 106

pursuant to Section 106 for the above projects would be fulfilled
through the programmatic agreement, which the Commission proposes to
draft in consultation with certain parties listed below. The executed
programmatic agreement would be incorporated into any Orders issuing
licenses.
