Does the NNL Program operate like the National Historic Landmarks Program or the National Register of Historic Places?
No, there are many important differences. The National Historic Landmarks (NHL) Program is augmented by additional legislation that allows the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation to review and comment on federally owned, assisted, or licensed undertakings that may affect properties included or eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places, which includes all NHLs. The National Register of Historic Places lists sites of national significance and those of state and local significance as well.
