Based on the information provided for our review,it is the opinion of the State Historic Preservation Officer(SHPO)that no historic properties are affected within the area of potential effects of this undertaking. Please note for future consultation with our office that all projects with ground-disturbing activities,you must include the Township,Range and Section information for the area affected by the project.Additionally,when identifying the Municipal unit you must specify the city,village,or township where the project is located.The municipal unit is notthe mailing address of the project location. It appears that this project is located not within the city limits of Lansing,but rather Delta Township. You should also understand that under Section 106, historic properties are NRHP-listed or eligible buildings,structures, objects,sites,etc.-including archaeological sites,and districts.The submitted application did not address the identification of,or potential for,archaeological properties.The State Archaeological Site File at SHPO is the official record of archaeological properties in Michigan.Applicants/consultants should investigate both above-ground and archaeological historic site files when preparing project application. Email SHPOresearch@michigan.gov to access these files and note that a research visit to our office may be required.Research appointments may be made by contacting us a week in advance, Future applications that fail to provide adequate location information will be returned for additional information and the review period will be accordingly reset.SHPO staff does not conduct research on behalf of others during Section 106. This letter evidences HUD's compliance with 36 CFR§800.4"Identification of historic properties,"and the fulfillment of HUD's responsibility to notify the SHPO,as a consulting party in the Section 106 process, under 36 CFR§800.4(d)(1)"No historic properties affected."9f the scope of work changes in any way,or if artifacts or bones are discovered,please notify this office immediately. We remind you that federal agency officials or their delegated authorities are required to involve the public in a manner that reflects the nature and complexity of the undertaking and its effects on historic properties per 36 CFR§800.2(d). The National Historic Preservation Act also requires that federal agencies consult with any Indian tribe and/or Tribal Historic Preservation Officer(THPO)that attach religious and cultural significance to historic properties that may be affected by the agency's undertakings per 36 CFR§800.2(c)(2)(ii). The State Historic Preservation Office is not the office of record for this undertaking. You are therefore asked to maintain a copy of this letter with your environmental review record for this undertaking. 16.
