Summary
The Secretary of the Interior is responsible for establishing standards for all programs under Departmental authority and for advising federal agencies on the preservation of historic properties listed in or eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. In partial fulfillment of this responsibility The Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties have been developed to guide work undertaken on historic properties; there are separate standards for preservation, rehabilitation, restoration and reconstruction. The Standards for Rehabilitation (codified in 36 CFR 67) comprise that section of the overall treatment standards and address the most prevalent treatment. “Rehabilitation” is defined as the act or process of making possible a compatible use for a property through repair, alterations, and additions while preserving those portions or features which convey its historical, cultural, or architectural values.”
