SECTION 106 Agreements Seminar: Anchorage, AK
Thursday, October 9, 2025 (8:30 AM - 12:30 PM) (AKDT)
Description
The Section 106 Agreements Seminar is a 4-hour, single-session course that builds skills in managing consultation and documenting agreed upon steps to resolve adverse effects in a Section 106 review of a federal undertaking. The seminar is designed for cultural resources, environmental, and legal practitioners who are fluent in the Section 106 implementing regulations and the review process. The curriculum provides instruction on how to build consensus and develop agreement documents that can be successfully implemented. Discussion and group exercises aid course participants in the following:
- Determining when consulting parties are ready to begin drafting a Section 106 Agreement,
- Distinguishing whether a Section 106 Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) or Programmatic Agreement (PA) is best suited to your needs,
- Documenting avoidance, minimization, and mitigation measures as clear, implementable agreement stipulations, and
- Determining when sufficient consultation has occurred to begin signing the Section 106 Agreement.
All courses are taught by ACHP staff with expertise and practical experience in managing Section 106 cases and developing agreement documents.
