Alaska Historic Preservation Act

Alaska · Public Resources · §§ 41.35.010 to 41.35.380 · 29 sections

Overview

The Historic Preservation Act governs a state's program for identifying, protecting, and operating historic sites, structures, and memorials, consolidating the rights, powers, and duties over that work in a single designated state agency. It establishes a division of historic preservation within that agency along with a state historic preservation board, defines the agency's jurisdiction and supplemental powers — hiring staff, collaborating with other agencies, preparing business plans, and reporting annually — and creates a dedicated fund to support historic sites. It also settles ancillary matters, including the disposition of personal property loaned to or deposited with the agency and left long unclaimed, admission policies at state historic sites, and coordination with property tax provisions applicable to historic properties.
