Agency Information Collection Activity: Application and Reporting Requirements To Receive Grants, 16924-16925 [2018-07951]

Download as PDF 16924 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 74 / Tuesday, April 17, 2018 / Notices comment. Following consideration of such comments by ACHP and VA, the final Program Comment will be published in the Federal Register. VA initiated the identification of historic properties in its capital asset inventory several decades ago. VA identified, in consultation with State Historic Preservation Offices, approximately 65 percent of the medical centers as having some buildings and structures, or districts eligible or listed on the National Register of Historic Places. All of the National Veterans Cemeteries are listed on the National Register. The development of VA and its historic role in the care and treatment of veterans over time is significant in the history of the United States. The analysis of buildings and structures that are no longer needed or cannot be adapted for current use will aid VA in reducing its real property inventory. Many buildings and structures are not useful for VA’s mission. In general, they tend to be warehouses, garages, sheds, animal research structures, and other utilitarian buildings. Most of these types of buildings and structures are not eligible or contributing to a historic district. VA intends to propose deconstruction or demolition of these properties without further consideration under the Program Comment. For buildings, structures and land that may serve other non-Federal entities purpose, VA may be able to out lease them. The leases would contain specific requirements for treatment of the character defining features of the historic property if the lessee is pursuing tax credits for rehabilitation of the historic property. For all other leases of historic properties, the reuse proposal would be evaluated with the lessee for potential retention of any character defining features such as windows, entry spaces, staircases and historic landscaping. If it is not possible to retain significant historic features of a building or structure, they will be documented prior to removal or alteration. daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES Signing Authority The Secretary of Veterans Affairs, or designee, approved this document and authorized the undersigned to sign and submit the document to the Office of the Federal Register for publication electronically as an official document of the Department of Veterans Affairs.
