Explanation

(This amendment would provide $200,000 each year to the Department of Historic Resources to create a "one-stop" web-accessible GIS map for project screening and information about the general location of cultural resources as well as natural resources for project proponents to use at the earliest stages of planning. This database will help avoid sensitive resources and thus reduce conflicts and delays that may otherwise arise during the permit review process.)
