Section 106. A critical section of an obscure law, the National
Preservation Act. It has saved thousands of historic sites,
archeological sites, buildings, and neighborhoods across the
country from destruction by Federal projects. And it has let even
more be destroyed, or damaged, or somehow changed. It is the major
legal basis for a multi-million dollar 'cultural resource
management' industry that provides employment to thousands of
archeologists, historians, and architectural historians. It is
interpreted in a wide variety of ways by judges, lawyers, Federal
agency officials, State and Tribal Historic Preservation Officers,
contractors, and academics. But what does it say, and how does the
regulatory process it created actually work? In this book, Tom King
de-mythologizes Section 106, explaining its origins, its rationale,
and the procedures that must be followed in carrying out its terms.
Available just months after the latest revision of section 106,
this book builds on King's best-selling work, Cultural Resource
Laws and Practice: an Introductory Guide (AltaMira Press 1998). It
is indispensable for federal, state, tribal, legal, academic, and
citizen practitioners in the United States. King's engaging and
witty prose turns a tangle of complicated regulation into a
readable and engaging guide. ** CLICK 'Sample Readings' below to
