South Carolina Code of Regulations › Chapter 12 - SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY › Article 1 - GUIDELINES FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT (CLG) PROGRAM IN SOUTH CAROLINA › Section 12-100 - Introduction

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
The Certified Local Government (CLG) program in South Carolina promotes community preservation planning and heritage education through a partnership with the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) that facilitates funding, technical assistance and training. Through local preservation planning, CLGs are better prepared to manage future growth and encourage economic development while protecting the historic and pre-historic resources that are significant to their community, to the state, and to the nation.
Certified local governments (CLGs) are eligible to apply to the SHPO for matching funds earmarked for "certified local governments". In order to become certified, a local government must meet certain requirements, among them to have enacted a historic preservation ordinance and to have appointed a historic preservation commission to monitor changes to historic properties. The CLG program also encourages local preservation planning and educational activities.
Since the enactment of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the nation's historic preservation program, administered by the United States Department of the Interior, has operated as a decentralized partnership between the states and the federal government. This program called for the states to identify, evaluate, and protect historic resources and provided federal aid to assist the states in this activity. In South Carolina, the State Historic Preservation Program is administered by the South Carolina Department of Archives and History whose Director is the State Historic Preservation Officer. In 1980, Congress, recognizing the crucial role of the local government in the preservation of our cultural resources, passed the National Historic Preservation Act Amendments of 1980 (  PL 96-515  ), making it possible for local governments to be involved formally in the National Historic Preservation Program. This law provided the legal basis for certification of local governments and the formation of a federal-state-local preservation partnership. The National Historic Preservation Act Amendments of 1992 ( PL 102-575 ) modified the certification requirements. In sum, the National Historic Preservation Act as amended ( 16 U.S.C. 470 et seq.) provides the legal framework for the national historic preservation partnership.
This document sets forth South Carolina's procedures, based on the federal act and the rules for implementing that act developed by the Department of the Interior ( 36 CFR 61 ), for local certification and funds transfer.
South Carolina Code of Regulations › Chapter 12 - SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY › Article 1 - GUIDELINES FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT (CLG) PROGRAM IN SOUTH CAROLINA › Section 12-101 - Criteria for Participation in South Carolina's Certified Local Government (CLG) Program

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
The National Historic Preservation Act as amended contains five broad standards which local governments must meet to be certified as participants in the National Historic Preservation Program. The law states that "Any local government shall be certified to participate under the provisions of this section (101(c)(1)) if the applicable State Historic Preservation Officer, and the Secretary (of the United States Department of the Interior), certifies that the local government: (A) enforces appropriate State or local legislation for the designation and protection of historic properties; (B) has established an adequate and qualified historic preservation review commission by State or local legislation; (C) maintains a system for the survey and inventory of historic properties ...; (D) provides for adequate public participation in the local historic preservation program, including the process of recommending properties for nomination to the National Register; and (E) satisfactorily performs the responsibilities delegated to it under this Act." The Act goes on to define "designation" and "protection" (Section 101(c)(4)), provide direction for funding CLGs (Section 103(c)) and define local commission and other historic preservation terms (Section 301).
Local governments in South Carolina that want to become certified local governments must satisfy these federal standards. The role and responsibilities of CLGs are further defined and expanded below to explain the specific standards a local government should fulfill to be certified in South Carolina.
A. Enforces Appropriate State or Local Legislation for the Designation and Protection of Historic Properties
(1) The local government must set forth criteria and processes for designating districts and landmarks of historic and/or pre-historic significance.
(2) The local government shall adopt a historic preservation ordinance, the purpose of which is clearly stated.
(3) The ordinance must define the authority by which its provisions are carried out.
(4) The ordinance must clearly delineate the jurisdiction of the design review committee.
(5) The ordinance must set forth processes for designating districts and landmarks of historic and/or pre-historic significance.
(6) The ordinance must set forth criteria and processes for the review and approval or disapproval of:
(a) alteration, demolition, and relocation of designated landmarks,
(b) the alteration of designated sites,
(c) the construction of new structures within designated districts, and
(d) other actions that may affect locally designated properties.
(7) The ordinance must set forth procedures for enforcing decisions.
(8) The ordinance must make provision for right of appeal.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
A. The chief elected official of the local government shall request certification from the SHPO. The request for certification shall include:
(1) A completed Certified Local Government application signed by the chief elected official.
(2) A copy of the local historic preservation ordinance as adopted by the local government that creates the historic preservation review commission and provides for designation and protection of historic districts and landmarks.
(3) A copy of the local commission's By-Laws and Rules of Procedure.
(4) A list and accompanying map(s) of the area(s) to which the ordinance applies.
(5) A list of resumes for the members of the historic preservation commission with mailing addresses and telephone numbers. The resumes should indicate members' expertise or interest in fields related to historic preservation. If the membership of the proposed commission does not meet the professional qualifications outlined in subsection 12-101B(2)above provide written documentation showing that a reasonable effort to obtain professional expertise has been made.
(6) List and resumes of pertinent local government staff members.
South Carolina Code of Regulations › Chapter 12 - SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY › Article 1 - GUIDELINES FOR IMPLEMENTATION OF CERTIFIED LOCAL GOVERNMENT (CLG) PROGRAM IN SOUTH CAROLINA › Section 12-103 - Process for Monitoring and Decertification of Certified Local Governments

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
A. The SHPO shall conduct periodic review and monitoring of CLGs no less often than once every four years to assure that each government is fulfilling the CLG requirements and that each is performing its responsibilities in a manner consistent with the comprehensive state historic preservation planning process. The SHPO shall review the annual reports submitted by CLGs, records of the administration of grant funds allocated from the HPF, and other documents as necessary. The SHPO will notify the CLG in writing of the results of the evaluation.
B. If the SHPO evaluation indicates that the performance of a CLG is inadequate, the SHPO shall document that assessment and recommend in writing to the local government steps to bring its performance up to an acceptable level. The SHPO shall give the CLG a period of not less than thirty, or more than one hundred eighty days to implement improvements. If the SHPO determines that sufficient improvement has not occurred, the SHPO shall recommend decertification of the local government to the Secretary of the Interior. The SHPO must notify the CLG in writing prior to, or at the time of, its recommendation to the Secretary for decertification. The notification must state the specific reasons for the proposed decertification, describe the SHPO's technical assistance efforts, and affirm that the SHPO will notify the CLG of the NPS concurrence with the decertification. The NPS will notify the SHPO in writing within thirty working days after receipt of the recommendation, if there are problems with the recommendation or if the NPS needs more time to review it. The local government is decertified if the NPS concurs in writing with the SHPO's recommendation to decertify the CLG. The SHPO must inform the CLG in writing of the decertification. If the local government wishes to become recertified it must reapply for certification.
C. CLGs may petition the SHPO to be decertified voluntarily and without prejudice. The SHPO must forward a copy of the CLG's letter as an enclosure to the NPS along with the SHPO's request to decertify the CLG.
D. When a CLG which is administering a CLG grant is decertified, the SHPO will conduct financial assistance close out procedures for that grant as specified in the Historic Preservation Fund Grants Manual.

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
The SHPO awards funds on a competitive basis to certified local governments based on program goals and priorities distributed with the application form. Priority will be given to projects that increase the capability and effectiveness of local governments to address historic preservation needs and issues. Basic funding goals will be identification, evaluation, nomination, and protection of historic resources. These may be accomplished through survey, nomination of properties to the National Register, establishment of local historic district(s), public education programs, planning studies, local historic preservation commission education and staffing, and development of comprehensive community-wide historic preservation plans, stabilization and weatherization of historic buildings, and similar preservation efforts. An effort will be made to distribute funds to a maximum number of eligible applicants and in as many areas, rural as well as urban, in the state as possible. The state shall make every effort to ensure that no CLG will receive a disproportionate share of the allocation. The requirement that tangible results be produced with HPF funds awarded cannot be waived. Rationale for applicants selected and amounts awarded will be made available to the public on request.

A. A property shall be used for its historic purpose or be placed in a new use that requires minimal change to the defining characteristics of the building and its site and environment.
B. The historic character of a property shall be retained and preserved. The removal of historic materials or alteration of features and spaces that characterize a property shall be avoided.
C. Each property shall be recognized as a physical record of its time, place, and use. Changes that create a false sense of historical development, such as adding conjectural features or architectural elements from other buildings, shall not be undertaken.

The new work shall be differentiated from the old and shall be compatible with the massing, size, scale, and architectural features to protect the historic integrity of the property and its environment.
J. New additions and adjacent or related new construction shall be undertaken in such a manner that if removed in the future, the essential form and integrity of the historic property and its environment would be unimpaired.
South Carolina Code of Regulations › Chapter 12 - SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY › Article 2 - QUALITY STANDARDS AND PRACTICES FOR THE MICROFILMING OF PUBLIC RECORDS › Section 12-200 - Introduction

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
The South Carolina Department of Archives and History (hereinafter called the Department) has the responsibility under the Public Records Act (Code of Laws of South Carolina, 1976. Section 30-1-10 through 30-1-140 ) to establish quality standards for microfilming and microfilm records. The Uniform Photographic Copies of Business and Public Records as Evidence Act (Acts and Joint Resolutions of the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina, Regular Session of 1978, pages 1632-34) authorizes the use of microfilm for legal purposes. The purpose of these standards is to enable the requirements of both statutes to be met and records determined to have archival or long-term retention value to be safeguarded. Some records of short-term retention value are converted to microfilm to save space or to provide quick retrieval. Minimum standards for microfilm of these short-term records are also provided here.
These quality standards for the microfilming of public records in South Carolina are derived from applicable Federal Micrographics Standards published in 36 Code of Federal Regulations, Chapter XII, Subchapter B. See the Microfilm Standards Attachment accompanying the Department's standards for reference. In general, section 1230.4 Definitions, and portions of Subpart A--Standards for Creation of Microform Records and Subpart B--Standards for the Maintenance, Use and Disposition of Microform Records of Part 1230--Micrographics, published in the Federal Register, Vol. 50, No. 125, pp. 26935-26937 are referred to in the South Carolina standards and practices which are divided into three sections below for convenience in reference and application. Where there are differences between the two, in the density ranges for example, the State standards are preferred.
The State standards are divided into the following sections:
General Standards and Practices for the Microfilming of Public Records (applicable to all public records filmed or converted to microfilm regardless of retention value).
Standards and Practices for Records of Archival Value (Perpetual Retention) and Records of Long-term Retention Value (10-100 years).
Standards and Practices for Records of Short-term Retention Value (less than 10 years).
South Carolina Code of Regulations › Chapter 12 - SOUTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY › Article 2 - QUALITY STANDARDS AND PRACTICES FOR THE MICROFILMING OF PUBLIC RECORDS › Section 12-202 - Standards and Practices for Records of Archival Value and Long-Term Retention Value

Current through Register Vol. 48, No. 6, June 28, 2024
A. Archival and Long-Term Value Microfilm
1. ARCHIVAL RECORD MICROFILM is defined as filmed records determined by a duly approved Records Series Retention/Disposition Schedule or an equivalent evaluation by the Department to be of sufficient value to warrant permanent (perpetual) retention.
2. MICROFILM RECORDS OF LONG-TERM RETENTION VALUE are filmed records that must be retained because of statutory or fiscal requirements for research use for periods of between ten and one hundred years.
