Another Federal Overreach: A Critical Preservation Safeguard is at Risk
At the direction of the current administration, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) is proposing a substantial revision of the regulations that govern how federal agencies carry out Section 106. On July 24, 2026, the ACHP voted to advance a draft Notice of Proposed Rulemaking. This means they formally got the ball rolling to make the revisions a reality. The draft is now moving through the federal interagency review process before it is published in the Federal Register for public comment.
