The length of the review time depends on the nature and scope of the project. Each easement project review request is assigned to an individual staff member, most often the Easement Program Architect or Easement Program Archaeologist, for review. The staff member will remain in direct contact with the landowner about the status of the project. Less complex projects are usually turned over in one to two weeks. Many of DHR’s easements require the Department to issue a response to the landowner within thirty days.
