State Historic Preservation Division: Navigating the SHPD Review Process

Hawaiʻi has unique historic resources that showcase our island values, lifestyle, and culture. Many of these resources are now considered historic and preserving this part of Hawaiʻi’s history requires the commitment and collaboration with many partners. This presentation will help to inform you of the State Historic Preservation Division (SHPD) role and process when reviewing federal, state and local projects impacting the built environment under Hawaiʻi Revised Statutes (HRS) Chapter 6E and Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
