"Traditional cultural places" (TCPs) are important for the roles they play in community cultural traditions, beliefs, and activities. They must be considered in planning under the National Environmental Policy Act, the National Historic Preservation Act, Executive Orders 12898 and 13007, and other authorities. This seminar explores definitions and methods of identifying and managing impacts on TCPs.
Claudia Nissley, president, Nissley Environmental Consultants; former director, Western Office, Advisory Council on Historic Preservation and Wyoming State Historic Preservation Officer; specialist in preservation issues relating to NHPA, NEPA, CERCLA, ARPA, and NAGPRA
“[I learned] the breadth of property types and settings that constitute TCPs.”
“[The seminar] gave many practical examples of real TCPs and how they were established and/or managed or mitigated.”
“Provided ideas on developing a TCP plan and explained general tendencies that will help eliminate mistakes.”
“[This seminar] was in no way a dry presentation of “laws and guidelines” [but gave] very good real situation examples.”
Managers responsible for compliance requirements; tribal leaders; preservation and environmental contractors; community planners.
