Using a Landscape Approach: Case Studies in Section 110 Compliance in Military Installations.
Author(s): Kimberly Smith
Year: 2018
Summary
Per Section 110 of the NHPA, federal institutions, including military installations, are required to identify and manage the cultural resources found therein. Funding to meet this requirement is typically limited and awarded within a yearly budget, allowing for disjointed surveys from one year to the next. The result is often recommendations based on a singular viewpoint of a site rather than a true reflection of the information the site can provide based on the regional setting and temporal period in which it existed. More recently, military installations have recognized these issues and have implemented base-wide surveys or base-wide analysis of contemporaneous sites to better assess their criteria according the NHPA and to better manage their facilities and cultural resources while complying the NHPA. This paper will discuss recent case studies, including the work conducted by the Indiana Army National Guard.
