State Historic Preservation Office - Conclusion

Conclusion

The purpose of the SHPO, with the cooperation of the local governments within their state, is to ultimately support the Federal Historic Preservation Program. It accomplishes this through its various responsibilities and purposes. With the many cultural differences between states, the SHPO has evolved to each state allowing the creation of specialized programs and the refining of the Federal Historic Preservation Program to conform within each state. The SHPO, therefore, plays an integral role in implementing the Federal Historic Preservation Program at the state level. SHPO is not only important at a state level, it is important at the National level as well. It is a collaboration of preservation ideas that lead to recognizing and protecting the United States, and their territories’, historic treasures.

Famous quotes containing the word conclusion:

    I have come to the conclusion that the closer people are to what may be called the front lines of government ... the easier it is to see the immediate underbrush, the individual tree trunks of the moment, and to forget the nobility the usefulness and the wide extent of the forest itself.... They forget that politics after all is only an instrument through which to achieve Government.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)

    The conclusion has never changed: the worst sort of people come here for the worst sort of reasons and put upon those of us who have conveniently forgotten where we came from and how we got here.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)

    The conclusion suggested by these arguments might be called the paradox of theorizing. It asserts that if the terms and the general principles of a scientific theory serve their purpose, i. e., if they establish the definite connections among observable phenomena, then they can be dispensed with since any chain of laws and interpretive statements establishing such a connection should then be replaceable by a law which directly links observational antecedents to observational consequents.
    —C.G. (Carl Gustav)
