    Are We There Yet? Auto Landscapes and Tourism, 1913–1975 Elizabeth Crawley King Forward The Wyoming State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) conducted this study to identify important places associated with transportation and tourism. Beth King, historic preservation specialist and former SHPO staff member, directed and completed the survey with the assistance of Erin Dorbin, SHPO intern, and Richard Collier, our now retired professional photographer. This work represents a comprehensive statewide study of cultural resources associated with auto tourism and transportation. We hope you enjoy learning about the history of our tourism industry and the development of Wyoming towns around our U.S. Highway system.

  • INTERSTATE HIGHWAY SYSTEM Streamlined Process for Section 106 and Section 4(F) Compliance
    INTERSTATE HIGHWAY SYSTEM Streamlined Process for Section 106 and Section 4(f) Compliance As the Dwight D. Eisenhower National System of Interstate and Defense Highways (Interstate Highway System) approached the fifty-year anniversary on June 29, 2006, large sections of the Interstate System would have achieved the mark at which resources are often evaluated for historic significance. In order to address the volume of administrative work this could foster, the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation adopted the Section 106 Exemption Regarding Effects to the Interstate Highway System on March 10, 2005. This exemption effectively excludes the majority of the 46,700-mile Interstate System from consideration as a historic property under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). In addition, the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU, Public Law 109-59, Aug. 10, 2005) includes a provision (Section 6007) that exempts the bulk of the Interstate Highway System from consideration as a historic resource under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act. With these two exemptions in place, Federal agencies are no longer required to consider the vast majority of the Interstate Highway System as historic property under Section 106 and Section 4(f) requirements. Excluded from these respective exemptions are elements of the Interstate System that are exceptional in some way or meet a national level of significance under the criteria for the National Register of Historic Places. The final list identifies those elements that are not covered by the exemptions discussed above and will therefore continue to be subject to consideration under the Section 106 and Section 4(f) processes.1 Historically Significant Features are Excluded from the Exemption The Exemption does not apply to certain historically important, distinctive features of the system.
