Screenshot of MarsEditThe National Historic Preservation Act focuses on preserving our Nation’s heritage. It also caries some pretty substantial requirements for all federal agencies working on projects that could impact historic properties. In particular, see Section 106, whose requirements are NOT waived during a disaster.

See the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s page on natural disaster for more information on the requirements surrounding recovery projects.
