Since 1970, the State and Tribal Historic Preservation
Offices have received approximately $37 million in annual matching
grants through the Historic Preservation Fund (HPF) to
assist in expanding and accelerating their historic preservation
activities.
Funding is used to pay part of the costs of staff
salaries, surveys, comprehensive preservation studies, National
Register nominations, educational materials, as well as architectural
plans, historic structure reports,
and engineering studies necessary to preserve historic properties.
The All HPF-assisted activities must meet
standards set by the Secretary of the Interior, and at least 10
percent of
the allocations to
the States are subgranted to assist Certified Local Governments
for locally based activities.
