Should Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (THPOs), along with Indian tribal governments, be invited to be participating agencies?

0

The lead agency’s invitation to an Indian tribal government to be a participating agency should be sent to the chief executive officer of the tribe. It is the decision of the Indian tribal government to identify their point of contact for purposes of the environmental review process. The individual designated to be the point of contact for the environmental review process may or may not be the same the individual designated to act under Section 106. The point of contact for compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act is likely to be the Tribal Historic Preservation Officer (THPO). The lead agency is encouraged to consult with the Indian tribal government to identify the point(s) of contact.
