The Locks are a historic property that was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1974, and therefore, pursuant to 36 C.F.R. part 800, the regulations implementing Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S.C. § 470f), as required in the executed Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) for the Closure of the Locks in accordance with the attached Performance Work Statement (PWS).

These are: the four numbered locks chambers, the canal basin, the guard lock, the lockmaster’s office, and the two sets of basalt stairs on either side of the canal. The basalt stairs can be documented together in one sub-report.
The reports will contain written historical and descriptive data and photographic documentation, including scanned or black and white photographic reproductions of existing construction plans. All documentation must be completed in accordance with HAER standards and guidelines, which are available through the Heritage Documentation Program website at https://www.nps.gov/hdp/standards/index.htm.
