Description

This is NOT a request for applications; this is an announcement that an award has already been designated for Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor, Inc., for their work to ensure that the NHA can continue to work with a large variety of partners to conserve resources in the region. The public purpose is to foster a close working relationship with all levels of government, the private sector, and the local communities to develop strategies to empower the communities to conserve their heritage while continuing to pursue economic opportunities and also strengthen the integration of resource preservation into the broader public policy and land-use planning and decision-making at all levels. In addition, this will increase the opportunities for diverse public participation in resource protection activities. The Cooperator agrees to: 1. Use funds made available under this agreement to support the NHA in a manner consistent with the legislation through the FY14 Work plan. 2. Implement the Management Plan in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and the Legislation. 3. Conduct public meetings at least semiannually regarding the implementation of the Management Plan. 4. Comply with all applicable State and Federal laws, including, but not limited to, the National Environmental Policy Act and the National Historic Preservation Act. 5.
