Category V. For Category V undertakings, NRCS Utah will implement undertakings in accordance with Section 106 of the NHPA and its implementing regulations found in 36 CFR Part 800. NRCS Utah will resolve the adverse effects through the development of a treatment plan detailing the measures that will be used to minimize and mitigate the effects to the historic properties in accordance with 36 CFR Part 800.6. This treatment plan will be developed through consultation among the NRCS, the Utah SHPO, and other consulting parties, as appropriate. The ACHP will be invited to participate in the consultation process as well. Once the treatment plan and measures to minimize and mitigate the adverse effects are agreed upon by the consulting parties, an MOA will be executed and implemented pursuant to compliance with Section 106. Once the mitigation work and the Section 106 consultation process has been completed, the NRCS State CRS will authorize implementation and will return a signed copy of the NRCS Utah Cultural Resources Review Form to the Conservation Planner. Conservation Planners will maintain a signed copy of the form and any associated cultural resources reports and consultation letters with the conservation plan for the undertaking.
Category V. Category V undertakings are defined by NRCS Utah as undertakings that will involve adverse effects to historic properties as defined in 36 CFR Part 800.5.a.1. For such undertakings, NRCS Utah will resolve the adverse effects through the development of a treatment plan detailing the measures that will be used to minimize and mitigate the effects to the historic properties in accordance with 36 CFR Part 800.6. This treatment plan will be developed through consultation among the NRCS, the Utah SHPO, and other consulting parties, as appropriate. The ACHP will be invited to participate in the consultation process as well. Once the treatment plan and measures to minimize and mitigate the adverse effects are agreed upon by the consulting parties, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) will be executed and implemented pursuant to compliance with Section 106. VIII. CRITERIA FOR ASSISTANCE FROM NRCS UTAH CRS PERSONNEL As stated previously, participation in the National Cultural Resources Training Series and the supplemental training every five years authorizes NRCS Utah to utilize its personnel and conservation partners in completing basic cultural resources. In accordance with the NRCS Utah SPPA, the use of trained personnel for completing cultural resources investigations is limited to those undertakings where NRCS Utah has been determined to be the lead Federal agency for the purposes of Section 106, where no extenuating circumstances exist, and where the undertakings occur exclusively on privately-owned lands. Utilizing the five-category cultural resources compliance system, Table 3 presents the criteria that are used to determine if an undertaking requires further assistance from NRCS Utah CRS personnel. Table 3. Criteria for Assistance from NRCS Utah CRS Personnel Category CRS Required? Description Category I NO Category I undertakings have little or no potential to affect historic properties. A review of such undertakings can be completed by Conservation Planners and submitted to the NRCS State CRS for approval without direct assistance. Category II NO Category II undertakings are limited in size and scope and lack extenuating circumstances that would otherwise involve additional consideration for cultural resources. Pedestrian inventories for Category II undertakings can be completed by Conservation Planners and submitted to the NRCS State CRS for approval without direct assistance. Category III YES Category III undertakings warrant further consideration of cultura...
Category V. (1) Consideration of use variances and construction or use intensity variances, of industrialized construction systems with a sub-regional impact and of all permits for the installation, placement and display of signs and advertisements, except for those related to roadways made with federal funds.
Category V. Day to day management and arrangements, including general organisational changes Regular business operations involve everyday organisational changes. This sometimes concerns minor organisational changes where no compulsory redundancy is anticipated. Consider, for example, the moving of an existing role between departments within an IM unit. There is no (formal) role or involvement for the participational bodies.
Category V. Category V undertakings are defined by NRCS Oregon as undertakings that will involve adverse effects to cultural resources as defined in 36 CFR Part 800.5.a.1. For such undertakings, NRCS Oregon will resolve the adverse effects through the development of a treatment plan detailing the measures that will be used to minimize and mitigate the effects to the cultural resources in accordance with 36 CFR Part 800.6. This treatment plan will be developed through consultation between the NRCS Oregon, the Oregon SHPO, Tribes, and other consulting parties as appropriate. The ACHP will be invited to participate in the consultation process as well. Once the treatment plan and measures to minimize and mitigate the adverse effects are agreed upon by the consulting parties, a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) will be executed and implemented pursuant to compliance with Section 106 and 36 CFR Part 800.6(c). Should the proposed undertaking have the potential to adversely affect a known National Historic Landmark (NHL), NRCS Oregon shall, to the maximum extent possible, undertake such planning and actions that may be necessary to minimize harm to the NHL in accordance with 54 U.S.C. 306107 of the NHPA and 36 CFR Part 800.6 and 800.10, including consultation with the ACHP and respective National Park Service, Regional National Historic Landmark Program Coordinator, to develop a Memorandum of Agreement.
