_ 5.0 EVALUATION OF CULTURAL RESOURCE SIGNIFICANCE
• The following section. provides evaluations of the cultural resource
properties located within the project area in terms of their significance
and potential eligibility for nomination to the National Register of
Historic Places. Evaluations are presented for those properties desig-
nated as cultural resource sites. Isolated finds are by definition not
considered to be significant due either to their recent age, i.e., less
than 50 years, or to a lack of definable cultural activity and/or contact
related to the artifactual materials. Potential impacts to the cultural
resource sites are identified in Section 6.0, as are options designed to
mitigate the potentially adverse effects of such impacts.
5.1 Criteria for Significance
In order to assist in the identification and management of cultur-
al resources, land managers are required by law to identify and protect
the resources under their jurisdiction. The National Historic Preserva-
tion Act of 1966 established the National Register of Historic Places
(NRHP) so that eligible properties could be identified and nominated to
the NRHP. The criteria for evaluating and identifying NRHP properties
established by the U.S. Department of the Interior (36 CFR 60.4) are as
follows:
National Register criteria for evaluation. The quality of
• of significance in American history, architecture, archeo-
logy, and culture is present in districts, sites, buildings,
structures, and objects of State and Local importance that
possess integrity of location, design, setting, materials,
workmanship, feeling, and association, and
(a) that are associated with events that have
made a significant contribution to the
broad patterns of our history; or
(b) that are associated with the lives of
persons significant in our past; or
(c) that embody the distinctive characteris-
tics of a type, period, or method of
construction, or that represent the work
of a master, or that possess high artistic
values, or that represent a significant
and distinguishable entity whose compo-
nents may lack individual distinction; or
(d) that have yielded, or may be likely to
yield, information important in prehistory
or history.
