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:

    The source of our actions resides in an unconscious propensity to regard ourselves as the center, the cause, and the conclusion of time. Our reflexes and our pride transform into a planet the parcel of flesh and consciousness we are.
    E.M. Cioran (b. 1911)

    I’ve heard the wolves scuffle, and said: So this
    Is man; so what better conclusion is there
    The day will not follow night, and the heart
    Of man has a little dignity, but less patience
    Than a wolf’s....
    Allen Tate (1899–1979)

    We must not leap to the fatalistic conclusion that we are stuck with the conceptual scheme that we grew up in. We can change it, bit by bit, plank by plank, though meanwhile there is nothing to carry us along but the evolving conceptual scheme itself. The philosopher’s task was well compared by Neurath to that of a mariner who must rebuild his ship on the open sea.
    Willard Van Orman Quine (b. 1908)
