This can be generally understood to mean that the Historic Preservation Treatment Specialist will prepare or guide in the preparation of the Historic Preservation Treatment Plan for the project and ensure that the executed work continues to comply with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for the Treatment of Historic Properties and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
