#5YP: New Hampshire's Five Year Preservation Plan 2021-2025

From the #executivesummary: "All of the input gathered, whether it be through the questionnaire or virtual meetings, informed the vision statement, goals and objectives presented herein and reflect the challenges and opportunities that participants felt most strongly about. Through historic preservation, all New Hampshire residents should feel empowered to recognize, preserve, use, and protect the historic resources and cultural landscapes vital to the state's identity. This statewide preservation plan provides the roadmap for the next five years. It can serve as inspiration and an opportunity to connect individuals, commissions, politicians, and develop partnerships towards the same end. Other highlights of the plan involve expanding current programs such as Federal Tax Credit and Preservation Easements, while at the same time developing new ways to connect with cities, towns, schools and nonprofits. One program that exemplifies this expansion of programming is our State Conservation and Rescue Archaeology Program (SCRAP). The SCRAP program has become one of the NHDHR's most sought after volunteer opportunities. Archaeology informs us about who we are as a state and affords us intimate glimpses into human habitation. State archaeologists have made it a priority going forward to investigate state lands as a way to influence better development in state parks, forest, and the transportation system...." Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the New Hampshire State Historic Preservation Office, Division of Historic Resources, Department of Natural and Cultural Resources, administered by the State, Tribal, Local Plans and Grants division, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
