Section 13-275-9 - Verification of completion of the detailed mitigation plan(a) Once the detailed mitigation plans are carried out, a request for verification shall be submitted by the agency to the SHPD. This request shall document completion of the detailed mitigation plans' tasks-usually in the form of a completion report, with one copy submitted. For archaeological data recovery, a data recovery report that meets the minimum standards set forth in chapter 13-278 shall be submitted to SHPD for review and approval.(b) If the SHPD disagrees that the work has been successfully completed, it shall send a letter noting uncompleted tasks or inadequately completed tasks within forty five days of receipt of the request. To proceed with the review process, the agency shall correct the problems, consulting with the SHPD as needed to resolve differences, and resubmit the completion report.(c) If the SHPD agrees that the work has been successfully concluded, SHPD shall send a verification letter within forty five days and the historic preservation process is concluded.(d) In cases involving preservation, archaeological data recovery, or architectural recordation, the agency has the option to request an accelerated, two step verification, understanding that construction projects often need to proceed rapidly and that a completion report is often finished months after fieldwork is completed. (1) Step 1, The agency shall submit documentation to the SHPD indicating that data recovery fieldwork, architectural recordation, or interim protection measures for properties to be preserved have been successfully completed. The SHPD writes a letter within thirty days to the agency agreeing and stating construction may proceed, with the understanding that Step 2 must be completed to conclude the historic preservation process. If the measures have not been successfully completed, the SHPD shall write a letter within thirty days to the agency indicating what needs to be completed. To proceed with the review process, the agency shall correct the problems, consulting with the SHPD as needed to resolve differences, and resubmit the documentation.(2) Step 2. The agency shall submit to the SHPD a completion report for the data recovery work, architectural recordation, or final preservation work. The SHPD shall write a letter to the agency within thirty days stating the completion report is acceptable and that the historic preservation process is concluded. If the completion report is not acceptable, the SHPD shall write a letter within thirty days to the agency indicating needed changes. To proceed with the review process, the agency shall correct the problems, consulting with the SHPD as needed to resolve differences, and resubmit the completion report.(e) In cases involving solely historic data recovery or ethnographic documentation where no field study of the historic property or properties is to occur, the agency has the option to request an accelerated verification process to proceed with the construction project and to submit a completion report at a later date, agreed upon with the SHPD. The agency shall submit the request in writing to the SHPD with reasons and with a date for submittal of the completion report. If the SHPD agrees, it shall send a letter to the agency within thirty days stating construction may proceed, with the agreement that the report shall be submitted to the SHPD by the agreed upon date and shall then be reviewed in accordance with subsections 13-275-9(a) through (c). If the SHPD does not agree with the request, the SHPD shall write a letter within thirty days to the agency indicating the SHPD's concerns. If the agency wishes to proceed with the accelerated verification process, the agency shall correct the problems, consulting with the SHPD as needed to resolve differences, and resubmit the request.(f) Once a final report is accepted, the agency shall ensure that seven copies are made available to the same repositories as the survey reports as noted in paragraph 13-275-5(e) (3).[Eff DEC 11 2003] (Auth: HRS §§ 6E-3) (Imp: HRS §§ 6E-1, 6E-3, 6E-7, 6E-8)
