(a) Ownership information. It is the responsibility of the applicant to provide complete information regarding the ownership of those historical resources which the applicant wishes to be included in the California Register. The ownership data must include assessor parcel numbers, maps, and a legal description of the resources. The applicant shall provide the owners' names and addresses on mailing labels, as well as any information necessary to establish whether a proposed resource or district has more than one owner. A boundary map and a list of all resource owners within the proposed district boundaries shall be included for each district. The list shall indicate whether the property of each owner is contributing or noncontributing to the significance of the district. Resources will not be listed in the California Register over the owner's objection, or in the case of a district, a majority of resource owners, but will be "formally determined eligible for listing" (see Section 4855(c) of this chapter).

(b) Submitting the application. Historical resources may be nominated by any individual or group including, but not limited to, members of the general public, private organizations, or local government with control authority over the designated historical resource.

(1) Local government, in whose jurisdiction the historical resource is located, shall submit their applications directly to the Office.

(2) If the applicant is not a local government, the applicant must notify the clerk of the local government by certified mail that an application will be filed with the Office and request that the local government join in the nomination and/or provide comments. Notification to the clerk of the local government shall include a copy of the application. Ninety (90) days after notification to the clerk of the local government, the applicant shall forward all completed applications and any comments to the Office.

(c) If the applicant is not the owner of the resource being nominated, within thirty (30) days of receipt of the application, the Office will provide a copy of the application to the owner and request any additional information.
