at the state <strong>and</strong> local levels. The current plan (2010) is accessible at:<br />
http://history.nd.<strong>gov</strong>/hp/PDFinfo/ND2009CompHPPlan.pdf. It presents an overview of<br />
historic <strong>and</strong> prehistoric themes <strong>and</strong> discusses six primary goals <strong>and</strong> objectives, including:<br />
1. To provide financial <strong>and</strong> non-financial incentives for participation in historic preservation<br />
efforts <strong>and</strong> program activities;<br />
2. To increase awareness of the presence <strong>and</strong> value of cultural resources;<br />
3. To increase the effectiveness of the state’s preservation network;<br />
4. To promote programs to identify, record, evaluate, <strong>and</strong> preserve significant cultural<br />
properties;<br />
5. To increase appropriate treatment of historic properties; <strong>and</strong><br />
6. To increase regular inclusion of historic preservation concerns in the planning <strong>and</strong><br />
decision-making processes of agencies, organizations, <strong>and</strong> individuals whose activities have<br />
a potential to affect significant cultural resources.<br />
