What is the difference between NRHP listing and FMSF listing?
The NRHP is administered by the National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior. Properties are listed there when the property has been found by a long formal process to be significant at the national level. Projects involving federal or state revenue, licensing, or permitting, must not affect sites that are listed in, or eligible for listing in, the NRHP. The FMSF is an office within the state’s Division of Historical Resources, which keeps statewide records on cultural resources and on field projects to document resources. FMSF listing means that the property should be considered in case of any project potentially impacting it is proposed.
