FDIC Federal Register Citations New Jersey Historic Preservation
Office Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 10:15 AM To: Comments Cc: Dorothy Guzzo; Meghan Baratta Subject: Proposed revised statement of policy on the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 HPO-K2005-154 Thank you for making the proposed revised policy available for review and comment. We appreciate your continuing consideration of FDIC's undertakings on historic properties, those listed in the National Register of Historic Places as well as those eligible for listing. The definition of "Covered Applications" including new institutions, new branches, and relocations of branches and main offices is reasonable. We applaud your clearly stated caution to Applicants that no action should be taken on a historic property relevant to a Covered Application involving demolitions, excavations, new construction, neglect causing deterioration, or introduction of visual, atmospheric, or audible elements that diminish significance without consulting with FDIC, ACHP, and SHPO and "without adequate and legally enforceable restrictions or conditions to ensure long-term preservation of the property's historic significance." We agree that SHPO consultation should not be required by FDIC for messenger services; offices in supermarkets, existing shopping centers, mobile or seasonal facilities; or properties that have been newly constructed and in which the Applicant had no ownership interest prior to or during construction. We appreciate your firm and clearly stated agency position on historic preservation related to Covered Applications. Michael L. Gregg Historic Preservation Specialist Historic Preservation Office PO Box 404 Trenton NJ 08625-0404
