  • NORTHERN NECK NATIONAL HERITAGE AREA FEASIBILITY STUDY | JUNE 2020 This Page Intentionally Blank
    NATIONAL PARK SERVICE • U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NORTHERN NECK NATIONAL HERITAGE AREA FEASIBILITY STUDY | JUNE 2020 This page intentionally blank. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY INTRODUCTION The Department of the Interior, National Park Service (NPS), has prepared this national heritage area feasibility study to determine if the Northern Neck study area meets the criteria to be eligible for designation as a national heritage area (NHA). The study meets the requirements of the National Heritage Area Feasibility Study Guidelines (NPS 2003) and compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969, as amended. The Northern Neck study area on the Atlantic coast of Virginia includes the five counties found between the Potomac and Rappahannock Rivers: King George, Lancaster, Northumberland, Richmond, and Westmoreland. The Northern Neck peninsula, the northernmost Virginian peninsula in the Tidewater region, extends 70 miles into the Chesapeake Bay and is only 20 miles across at its widest point. This small area of land has historically been defined by its waterways, rural setting, and connections to several early American political leaders as the “birthplace of presidents.” LEGISLATIVE HISTORY Congress directed the Secretary of the Interior, in consultation with appropriate state historic preservation offices, state historical societies, and other appropriate organizations, to conduct a study to determine the suitability and feasibility of designating the study area as the Northern Neck National Heritage Area in the Omnibus Public Land Management Act of 2009 (Public Law 111-11). The goal of the study was to determine if the study area meets the criteria established in the NPS National Heritage Area Feasibility Study Guidelines for designation.
