Common use of Landscapes Clause in Contracts

Landscapes. Landscapes are geographical areas that are defined by the interrelationship of their constituent resources and/or property types. Landscapes vary in composition and scale and may reflect natural and/or cultural processes that have been instrumental in shaping the land. Landscapes exhibit tangible evidence of the activities of the people who occupied, developed, used, and shaped the land as well as their beliefs, attitudes, traditions, and values. Landscape types include, but are not limited to, designed historic landscapes, historic residential suburbs, rural historic landscapes, traditional cultural properties, traditional cultural landscapes, and mining landscapes. Landscapes must be considered during the planning process and their identification and treatment will require agreement among the Indian tribes, informants, local residents, and Louisiana CRS personnel. NRCS Louisiana shall attempt to avoid any adverse effect to landscapes. If these effects cannot be avoided, the landscape will be documented following the guidelines established by the NPS and the Louisiana Division of Historic Preservation. Documentation may require technical experts (e.g. tribal experts, landscape architects, historical architects, cultural geographers) that are not employed by NRCS Louisiana.
