Laws, rules and regulations
Under authority of the Federal Historic Preservation Act of 1966 [16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.] and federal rule [36 CFR Parts 60 and 61], the National Park Service works in partnership with the states to administer the federally-aided program that encompasses survey, planning, and registration activities, grants-in-aid, tax benefits, and federal project review.
In Oregon, the program is mandated by parallel state legislation [ORS 358, ORS 390] and administrative rule [Chapter 736, Divisions 50 and 51]. SHPO administers several state statutes relating to historic preservation, including:
  • ORS 358.475 (Special Assessment of Historic Property)
  • ORS 358.622 (State Advisory Committee on Historic Preservation)
  • ORS 358.612 (Authorities of State Historic Preservation Officer)
  • ORS 358.635 (Preservation of state-owned historic property)
