Historic Preservation Fund Grant Priorities Available For Public Comment

Last updated on Friday, March 10, 2017

(INDIANAPOLIS) - Every year the DNR Division of Historic Preservation & Archaeology (DHPA) revises the priorities by which the federally funded Historic Preservation Fund (HPF) grant applications are evaluated.

The priorities are established within the parameters of the National Park Service's Historic Preservation Fund Grant Manual, and represent the types of projects that the DHPA view as important to its mission to identify, document, investigate, preserve, and interpret cultural resources in Indiana.

The HPF Program Guidelines and the evaluation criteria for Administrative, Architectural & Historical, Archaeology, Acquisition & Development are being provided for public review and comment. Please provide any comments to the DHPA Grants Staff by Thursday, April 13, 2017. All public comments must be received in writing.

The priorities are now available at http://www.in.gov/dnr/historic/7589.htm . Please note that the Archaeology grant priorities have changed substantially. Any questions regarding the new priorities for archaeological grant activities can be directed to the DHPA Grant or Archaeology Staff.

1340 AM WBIW welcomes comments and suggestions by calling 812.277.1340 during normal business hours or by email at comments@wbiw.com
