Integrating Tribal Expertise into Processes to Identify, Evaluate, and Record Cultural Resources
There is a lot of evidence that Native American tribes could be better involved in planning transportation projects.
The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's
NCHRP Web-Only Document 281: Integrating Tribal Expertise into Processes to Identify, Evaluate, and Record Cultural Resources
explores how unique tribal perspectives and
expertise could inform the tribal engagement and consultation process associated with the requirements and
intent in the Section 106 process for successful project outcomes on surface transportation projects.
Additional resources with the document include a
Quick-Reference Guide and a
PowerPoint Presentation.
