7. Historic Buildings or Archeological Sites Factor

This factor evaluates the historical attributes of a parcel. It assumes that the presence of eligible historical or archeological features add to the agricultural preservation value. Significant historical or archeological sites are those listed on the National Register of Historic Places or have received a consensus determination through the State Historic Preservation Office. Qualified professional cultural resource consultants will perform inventory and documentation. NRCS submits the report to the State Historic Preservation Office and consults on the eligibility of historical or archaeological sites.
