Section 80. Revisions to properties listed in the National Register  


Latest version.
  • Four justifications exist for altering a boundary of a property previously listed in the National Register:

    1. Professional error in the initial nomination;

    2. Loss of historic integrity;

    3. Recognition of additional significance;

    4. Additional research documenting that a larger or smaller area should be listed.

    The director shall recommend no enlargement of a boundary unless the additional area possesses previously unrecognized significance in American history, architecture, archeology, engineering or culture. The director shall recommend no diminution of a boundary unless the properties recommended for removal do not meet the National Register criteria for evaluation.
