Historic Preservation @ Boy's Dorm

This program is responsible for implementation of Tribal Code Chapter 66 and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) as outlined in the Memorandum of Agreement between the LDF Band and the National Park Service (Secretary of Interior). The program provides the required cultural resource review for tribal members and issues permits to proceed for all undertakings on Tribal, Allotted and Fee Lands owned by tribal members. The program reviews all federal undertakings within the exterior reservation boundaries pursuant to Section 106 of the NHPA and reviews statewide federal undertakings for their potential to impact cultural resources within the ceded territories. Program responsibilities include maintenance and updating of all resources files, maps, research information, oral histories, and Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA) related information. The program also serves as an educational outlet for local schools, tribal programs, federal agencies, state agencies, and local governments in all phases of cultural resources management, protection and enhancement, and NAGPRA related activities.
