INTRODUCTION

This  directory  presents  national,  regional, state,  and local  sources  of
environmental  and  socioeconomic  baseline  information  covering  the  six
states   of   the  US  Environmental  Protection   Agency's   (EPA)  Region V
(Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Ohio, and Wisconsin).   The purpose
of this  directory  is to provide those  EPA,  state and local officials that
are  involved  in the environmental review  of  wastewater  treatment  projects
under  the  Construction  Grants  Program  with  information  on  sources  of
environmental data.   This information  can then  be  used to assist  in the
development  and   review   of  environmental  inventory  documents  (EIDs),
environmental assessments (EAs), or environmental impact statements (EISs).

The  information presented in this directory is also intended to be used by
public officials  in the  development  and review  of  other  programs carried
out  by EPA Region V  and  the  six  participating  state  agencies.   The data
sources cover a variety of topical areas, enabling them to be utilized in a
number of different ways.   For example, as a reference tool, this directory
summarizes and  highlights the  primary data sources that  can  typically be
used  to  prepare  environmental review  documents,  including EIDs, EAs and
EISs.  This  directory  also is  intended,  in some  instances,  to  provide
guidance  as  to the  type  of  information that should  be included in such
documents, although  the level  of detail required in a  particular  environ-
mental review  document will  vary  depending  on  the nature  of the project
under examination and the type of document being prepared.

The  organization  of  this  directory   reflects   the categories  generally
addressed in the environmental review documents prepared under the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA):

     •   Earth  resources  and atmosphere  (topography,  geology, soils,
         prime  and  unique agricultural  lands,  air  quality,  climate)
     •   Water  resources   (surface water  and groundwater  hydrology,
         quality and use,  flood hazard areas)

-------
     •   Biological  resources  (aquatic  biology,  wildlife,  wetlands,
         forests, endangered species)
     •   Socioeconomics  (population,  housing,  land  use,  community
         finances)
     •   Cultural  resources  (historical,  archaeological,  architec-
         tural).

In  each  of the  above  categories,  data sources and  descriptions  are given
first on national  and  regional  levels, and then separately  for  each state
and other  local  sources.   Preceeding the categorized sources is  a section
detailing  more  broadly-based  information  sources  including computerized
databases.

It  should  be  noted that occasionally a category, such  as  floodplains,  may
be  addressed  by  data sources in more than  one  topic area.  In  such cases,
this document  provides  cross references for the reader in order to ensure
that a thorough  presentation of  sources is available.  Chapter  I describes
general  data  sources   which have  information  on  virtually all  specific
categories, therefore,  no  cross referencing  for these general  sources is
needed.

-------
I. GENERAL DATA SOURCES


A.  EPA REGIONAL LIBRARY, STATE LIBRARIES, AND MAJOR REFERENCE LIBRARIES


The  EPA Regional  Library,  located  in Chicago,  was  esblished in  1971 to

provide  needed  environmental information  resources for  the  six  states in

Region V, as well as the Great Lakes Basin, Ohio River Basin, and the Upper

Mississippi  River  Basin.   Listed  below  are  the  general   categories of

materials available:


     •   Legal  (includes  the U.S.  Code, Public Laws,  Code of Federal
         Regulations,  EPA  Legal  Compilations,  Congressional/Legis-
         lative materials, and State Laws)

     •   Technical  Reports  and  Documents   (includes  EPA  reports,
         Environmental Impact  Statements,  Nuclear  Plant Reports, and
         Air Pollution Technical Information Center materials)

     •   Reference materials

     •   Journals (approximately 400 listings)

     •   Books (approximately 2,500 titles).


The  Region V  Library shares  resources with many other libraries  and EPA

facilities through  its  interlibrary  loan  program.  The  library's address

is:

US Environmental Protection Agency
Region V Library
230 S. Dearborn St.
Chicago, IL  60604
312/353-2022


Each state in the  United  States maintains an  official state library.  The

state  library  acts  as  a  depository  of  Federal  government  publications,
state legislative information and regulations,  historical records, and data

on localities within each  state.   State librarians also  provide valuable

guidance by advising individuals of  other sources of available data.  Major

reference libraries  in  communities throughout  each state are  also useful

-------
sources  of  site-specific  data.   Most  state  libraries  provide  on-line
searching of computerized bibliographic databases, and share the facilities

of  other libraries  through regional  reference and  information networks.

B.   THE NATIONAL TECHNICAL INFORMATION SERVICE (NTIS)
     5285 Port Royal Rd.
     Springfield, VA  22161
     703/487-4600

The  National Technical  Information  Service  (NTIS), an  agency of  the US
Department  of  Commerce, is  the central source  for the  public  sale of US
government-sponsored research, development, and engineering reports as well
as  other  publications prepared  by national and  local  government  agencies
and their contractors or grantees.  The core of the NTIS Information system
is  a collection  of  more  than  a million  different technical  reports on
completed  government research,  all permanently  available  in the  form of
film, paper, or  magnetic tape.   Full summaries of current research reports
and  other  specialized  information are  published  regularly  by NTIS  in a
variety of  formats,  including weekly newsletters, a bi-weekly journal, and
an annual index.

The  NTIS  bibliographic  database  comprises the bibliographic  citations or
research  summaries  of  the  approximately 70,000 technical reports announced
annually.   This  database  is the  machine-readable  version of  the  printed
subscription  journal,  Government  Reports  Announcements and  Index  (GRAI).
Searches  of the NTIS  database,  as well  as the  other  databases listed in
this section,  can be  performed at nominal cost in most of  the State and
major reference libraries.   Searches can be conducted for specific informa-
tion either  by  identifying the author or title and date,  or by identifying
a  particular category.   In  the  latter  case,  the  search is  conducted by
covering certain key words associated with that category.  For example, to
obtain information on the effects of onsite wastewater treatment systems on
lake water  quality, a search could  be conducted using key words  such as:
water quality, onsite  systems,  septic tanks,  lake eutrophication,  nutrient
dispersion, algal blooms, etc.

In addition, NTIS  also  publishes a weekly "Abstract Newsletter on Environ-
mental  Pollution and  Control."   This  publication  provides  abstracts  on
recently published  reports in the areas of air pollution, noise pollution,

-------
solid wastes, water  pollution,  pesticides,  radiation, environmental health
and safety,  general  environmental  topics and recently issued environmental
impact statements.

The NTIS maintains a  Local  Government Credit Plan under  which  no advance
funds are  necessary for  local  governments to obtain credit  and immediate
shipments  of NTIS  products  and  services.    Upon receipt  of the  special
credit  account  application  (PR-220,   free  on request),  NTIS will  mail  a
supply of preaddressed order forms bearing a special account number.  These
forms   also   will  show   a   "ship  to"  address,  if  one   is   required.
Subsequently,  orders will  be processed directly into the NTIS automated
system.   Although  the  price  of  documents  obtained  from  NTIS  varies
considerably, most NTIS  products  cost between $7 and $40.  In general, the
delivery time for material ordered from NTIS is one to two weeks.

The Directory  of  On-line Databases, published quarterly  by  Cuadra Associ-
ates,  Inc.,  is a  complete  listing of computerized databases  available to
the general  public.   The Directory  covers  databases  that  are available
through international telecommunications networks as well  as those that are
accessible through on-line  services connected to networks that  serve only
one country  or a  limited set of countries.   Information  on  type, subject,
producer,  special  use  conditions,  content,  coverage  and  updates  are
included for each database.   The following list of databases  is arranged by
subject  matter.   Forty-eight  of   the  seventy-three  listed  databases  are
comprised  of citations,  and  sometimes,  summaries  of  information.   The
remaining databases contain  source  data and are  preceded  by  an  "(s)" (for
source).

The  NRC  assists  persons  who  need  answers  to  technical  questions  by
referring them  to  organizations  that can provide needed information.  This
service is based on a computerized, subject-indexed inventory that contains
descriptions  of specialized  information sources  in  all fields.   The NRC
responds to  inquiries  with referrals that include source names, addresses,
telephone numbers, and  descriptions of services  provided.   The  NRC also
publishes periodic directories  of  information resources.   NRC's machine
readable files hold information on 13,000 organizations.

Previous EISs

Valuable  site-specific  information may be  obtained  from   previous  EISs
prepared on  projects in  a particular study area.   The EPA Region V Office
in  Chicago  maintains complete EIS files for  the six  states in Region V.
Moreover, EPA can furnish  information on whether or not an EIS has ever
been done for a project in a particular study area.  Recent EISs (completed

A.   TOPOGRAPHY AND GEOLOGY


1.   US Geological Survey.  The data and  publications of the US* Geological

     Survey  (USGS)  are  extremely  productive  sources  of  environmental

     baseline data  regarding the  topography  and geology of  an  area.   The
     USGS has collected, analyzed, and  published detailed information about

     the nation's  mineral, land,  and  water resources  since  1879,  and has
     released this information in a  wide variety of  available formats,  as

     detailed in this section.


     a.  Complete Publications Lists.   The  USGS  has  published  a  complete

         two-volume listing, with geographical indexes, of all its  reports,

         maps  and other  publications  issued  between  the  years  1879 and
         1970.   Since  1970, its  publications  have been  indexed in yearly

         volumes.   These  indexes are  available  at no  cost.   The  indexes,
         and  the  publications  to  which  they  refer,  are  available  as

     202/447-4543


     The Soil Conservation Service (SCS)  is responsibile for developing and

     implementing  a  national soil and water conservation  program through

     technical  and  consultative  assistance  to  2,950 local  conservation
                                     24

-------
districts; to  sponsors of  watershed  protection and  resource conser-
vation  and  development projects;  and to  many other individuals  and
groups.   The  SCS:  (1) appraises  the status  and condition  of  soil,
water,  and  related resources, and  trends in  their  use;  (2)  designs
long-range conservation  programs with the aid of local  soil conser-
vation districts and the public;  and (3)  evaluates progress in meeting
conservation needs.  SCS Inventory and monitoring data are used at all
governmental levels for conservation,  use and development of land, and
also for the protection of the environment.

The SCS prepares  county  soil surveys  which identify the general soils
associations  of  the  county as  well as  more specific  soils  series.
These  surveys  are conducted  to determine  soil  use potentials  and
conservation treatment needs,  and  to  give detailed information on the
kinds  of  soils in  each  county,  where the soils are located  and how
they can be used.

In  addition  to  descriptions  of  the county's  soil  types and  maps
showing their  distribution,  the  SCS surveys identify the capabilities
of  the county's various  soils for  agriculture, wildlife  habitat,  and
forestry;  the  location of  prime and  unique farmland; and the suita-
bility  of the  county's  soils  for such  uses  as septic  tanks,  land
treatment, construction of  roads and  buildings, and  water supply and
sewerage systems.   Information is  provided on properties such as soil
texture,  permeability, shear  strength,  compaction  characteristics,
drainage,  shrink-swell characteristics,   grain size, plasticity,  and
reaction.   Additional information is provided on depth to water table,
flooding  hazards,  depth  to  bedrock,   and  relief   characteristics.
Appendix  B  is  a  list  of  the  published surveys  for each county  by
state.

Soil  surveys  can be obtained through the  District Conservationist  in
each county.   The District  Conservationist also maintains information
on  local   geology,  groundwater, surface  water  hydrology,  erosion,
sedimentation, and  land use.   District  Conservationists'  addresses  in
                                25

-------
     counties of the six  states  may be obtained  from  the state offices of

     the Soil Conservation Service listed below.


     The SCS also is responsible  for helping to identify prime agricultural
     lands  that  may  be  surface-mined  under its  Rural  Abandoned  Mine

     Program.   (See  Chapter III,  Section H.l.b.  for  more information on

III.  WATER RESOURCES


A.   WATER RESOURCES DATA


Three offices of the USGS collect and disseminate water resources data on a

national basis:  the Office of Water Data Coordination (OWDC), the National
Water Data  System (NWDS),  and the National Water Data  Exchange (NAWDEX).


1.   US Geological Survey

     a.  Office of Water Data Coordination (OWDC)

         427 National Center
         Reston, VA  22092
         703/860-6931

         The  OWDC was  established to  coordinate water data acquisition.

         The  OWDC  prepares  and  distributes  a handbook  on  recommended
         methods  for  water data acquisition, and disseminates information

         about  the  water data acquisition  activities of both  Federal and

         non-Federal  agencies  through  the publication of  a  series  of

         indexes:

         •   Index  to  Catalog  of  Information  on   Water  Data  —  Lists
             information  on   surface  water  and   groundwater  stations.
             Published  in  21  volumes  corresponding  to  the water resource
             regions of the U.S.

         •   Index to  Stations in  Coastal  Areas — A special  index cover-
             ing  stations  on  ocean and  Great   Lakes coasts   in the  U.S.

         •   Index to  Water Data Activities in  Coal   Provinces  of  the U.S.
             (2 vols.)

         •   Federal Plan for Acquisition of Water Data (annual).

     b.  National  Water Data System (NWDS)

         440 National Center
         Reston, VA  22092
         703/860-6877


         Working through a nationwide  array of  observation  sites,  the NWDS

         collects  data on the  occurrence,  quality, quantity,  distribution,
                                     31

-------
and  movement  of the  surface and underground  waters constituting

the  water resources  of  the U.S. These data are stored in a large-

scale  computerized  system called WATSTORE.  This  system consists
of machine-readable  files  holding  both water data and information

on the collection  sites.  WATSTORE produces a  variety of services
ranging  from   simple  data  retrieval   to  complex  statistical

analyses.


The  NWDS also  distributes data through the  annual  publication of

numerous hydrologic  reports and  maps.   The   scope and  subject

matter  of  these materials include  surface  water stage  and  dis-

charge,  chemical  quality parameters,  radiochemistry,  sediment,

pesticide and  biological  concentrations,  water levels, geological

information relating to groundwater, and flood  frequency and flood

inundation mapping.   WATSTORE's computer files  hold over 300,000

station-years  of  records,  plus   location  information  for  some

125,000 collection sites.   The NWDS also publishes the USGS series

on  water data  for  streamflow,  water  quality, and  groundwater

annually  on  a  state  boundary basis.   WATSTORE  is  accessible

through the USGS Water  Resources  Division,  whose headquarters and

district offices are listed below:

         STORET is a  large-scale  computerized STOrage and RETrieval system
         for  water  pollution measurement  data collected  from  observation
         stations across the country.  Available for on-line retrieval from
         remote  terminals,  the system  is designed  to serve planning  and
         management personnel, providing  a systematic state, regional,  and
         national data base for reporting trends in water quality.

         STORET's water  quality data are  derived  from laboratory  analyses
         of water samples.  The data are acquired from the USGS's  National
         Water  Data  System  and  from  a  variety  of  pollution  abatement
         agencies  at  Federal,   state,   and  local  levels.   STORET  also
         contains fish  contaminent  and  sediment  contaminant data  for  the
         Region V states.  In addition,  STORET contains effluent monitoring
         data for all NPDES-permitted  industrial  and municipal  dischargers
         located in Region V.

         STORET's  search  and  retrieval  system  can  be  by river  reach,
         allowing users to pinpoint  the exact geographic locations  of point
         source dischargers and sample collection points.  Data are contri-
         buted to  STORET not only  by the  EPA,  but also by the USGS,  the
         COE,   the various  state  environmental  protection agencies,  and
         other organizations.   STORET's  machine-readable  files presently
         hold about 60 million historical monitoring observations from over
         500,000 locations.

C.   RIVER BASIN/WATER SHED INFORMATION

In addition to  providing  assistance with soils data,  the Soil  Conservation
Service  (SCS) has  access  to  large amounts of water  resources  information
that have been  collected  in connection with the numerous projects that the
SCS  has  conducted  in its  many areas  of  responsibility.   The major  SCS
programs constituting this fund of  information are as  follows:

1.   River Basin Surveys and Investigations.   The SCS,  along  with  other
     agencies within  the Department of Agriculture (the Economic  Research
     Service,  the  Forest  Service,  and  the Science  & Education  Adminis-
     tration), cooperates with  other  Federal,  state,  and local  agencies in
     studying the watersheds of rivers  and other waterways.   These studies
     include  cooperative  river  basin surveys  that  serve as  a basis  for
     developing  coordinated water resource  programs;  floodplain management
     studies  that  furnish technical data, assistance, and information for
     state and local  governments to use in floodplain management programs;
     joint watershed  surveys  with  the  US Army Corps  of Engineers  for the
     purpose  of  flood  prevention;  and  coordination  of interagency  water
     resources activities.

2.   Watershed Planning Studies.  The  SCS  has general responsibility  for
     the  administration  of Investigations  and  surveys  of proposed  small
     watershed projects in  response to  requests by sponsoring  local organ-
     izations.  The  SCS  assists sponsors  in the development of watershed
     plans.

3.   Data from Watershed and Flood  Prevention Operations.   The   SCS  admin-
     isters  cooperative activities  with  local sponsors,  state  agencies,  and
     other public bodies in the planning and implementation of  projects for
     erosion,  floodwater,  and  sediment  damage  control;  conservation  and
     development of water  resources; water  utilization and disposal;  flood
     prevention  projects, including development  of recreational facilities
     and improvement of fish and wildlife habitat; and also provides loans
     to local  organizations through the  Farmers Home Administration to help
                                     42

     gram  (NFIP)  provides  federally-subsidized  flood  insurance  to  indi-
     viduals  and  businesses  located  in  flood-prone areas.   For property

     owners to  qualify  for  federally-subsidized flood insurance, the local
     government  having  jurisdiction  over  the  property must   adopt  and
     enforce  land use controls  that lessen or  avoid  damage  in flood-prone

     areas.   Flood  Insurance  Rate Maps  are  available  from the  Federal
     Emergency  Management Agency.   These maps depict  500- and 100-year

     flood  boundaries,  contours showing  the  base  flood  (100-year) eleva-
     tion, and  flood  zone designations.   Major flood protection structures

         land  users  in  the  reclamation  of  abandoned  or  inadequately
         reclaimed  coal-mined  lands  and associated water bodies.   The SCS
         also is responsible for helping to identify areas  of  prime farm-
         land that  may be  surface-mined in the future,  providing technical
         assistance  to  mine  operators  for  reclaiming coal-mined  lands,
         reviewing  permits  for surface  mining  which   involve  prime farm-
         land, and reviewing state reclamation plans.

     Additional SCS programs include:

     •   Agricultural Conservation Program
     •   Rural Clean Water Program
     •   Waterbank Program
     •   Great Plains Conservation Program.

     A particularly valuable source of information on endangered species is
     a computerized system called the Sensitive Wildlife Information System
     (SWIS).  The  COE operates  SWIS in cooperation  with the  US Fish and
     Wildlife Service, the  US Forest Service, the Federal Highway Adminis-
     tration, and the Soil Conservation Service.  SWIS provides information
     arranged by state on the habits and habitat  requirements  of selected
     endangered  or protected  species  and  other  environmentally  sensitive
     wildlife.   SWIS1  primary  purpose is  to  aid the  engineer  and  land
     manager  in  the   planning and  development of  resource projects  and
     environmental impact statements.   Included for each taxon is informa-
     tion on the degree of protection accorded under Federal and state law;
     its geographic distribution;  its  known behavioral characteristics and
     habitat  requirements,  especially  in  regard to  its adaptability  to
     changes  in  its  environment;  its population structure and  trends;  and
     a  reference  bibliography.  In addition  to providing this  information
     in  narrative  form,   SWIS  also produces  computer-plotted  distribution
     maps for each animal  covered.

     The information  in SWIS  is gathered from  Federal,  state,  university,
     and other biologists,  botanists,  and  ecologists; Federal,  state, uni-
     versity  and  commercial publications and databases;  and several  major
     libraries.   SWIS is available without  cost to users who are authorized

     301/899-7600

     The Bureau of the Census (Bureau) collects, tabulates,  and publishes a
     wide variety  of statistical data concerning the  housing,  population,
     and economy of  the  nation.   The Bureau's principal function, mandated
     by the Constitution,  is  a tabulation of the U.S.  population.   Subse-
     quent legislation acts have  required  decennial censuses  of agricul-
     ture, state  and local units, manufacturers, mineral industries,  dis-
     tributive trades, construction industries and transportation.  Current
     surveys  provide  information on  many  of the  subjects  covered in  the
     censuses  at  monthly,  quarterly,  annual,  or  other  intervals.   The
     Bureau  also  compiles  current  statistics  on  United  States  foreign
     trade.

     The Bureau  conducts  special censuses for states,  counties   and  local
     government units; publishes estimates and projections of  the  popula-
     tion;  provides current data on population and housing  characteristics;
     and  issues  current  reports  on  manufacturing, retail  and  wholesale
     trade,  services,  construction,  imports and  exports,  state  and  local
     government finances  and employment,  and other subjects.

     The principal products of the Bureau are its printed reports, computer
     tapes,  and special tabulations.  The  Bureau also  produces statistical
     compendia, catalogs,  guides, and directories that  are useful in locat-
     ing specific  information.   The  following  is  a list of Bureau of  the
     Census  field offices  in  the six states, together  with their areas of

The mission of the Bureau of the Census covers a wide range of statis-

tical  activities  which vary  considerably in purpose,  size,  and fre-

quency.   The Bureau's  activities fall  into three  major categories:

(1) a  periodic  program of major censuses, which include the decennial

censuses  of population  and  housing,  and  the  quinquennial  economic

censuses, as well  as other statistical projects that recur on a regu-

lar basis;  (2)  a current program of  continuous collection,  analysis,
and reporting of  demographic and economic statistics,  such  as retail

sales  and inventory  estimates,  housing  information,  and intercensal
population estimates;  and  (3)  work conducted for government agencies,

educational  institutions,  and others  under  the Bureau's reimbursable

program.


Most of  the  above  work involves conducting demographic surveys, which

represent  25 percent  of the  Bureau's  total  budget.   These  surveys

usually  focus   on  households  and obtain  information  on demographic
                             57

-------
subjects  such as income, education, health,  employment,  and expendi-
tures.  Major recurring  surveys conducted by the Bureau in this cate-
gory  Include the Current  Population Survey  for  the Bureau  of Labor
Statistics and the Annual Housing Survey for the Department of Housing
and Urban Development.

The  Bureau  also  conducts single-time or intermittent surveys, such as
its  1980  Survey of  Fishing,  Hunting, and  Wildlife Associated Recre-
ation, conducted for the US Fish and Wildlife Service.

Information  on Bureau of  the Census products in the first  two cate-
gories above  is presented in this section; information on the Bureau's
demographic  surveys can be  obtained  by  contacting its  Demographic
Surveys  Division,  at  the Washington,   D.C.  (301/763-2776)  address
identified at the beginning of this section.

    Minnesota, and Ohio).
•   P-28  series  Special  Surveys  for  Counties  and Incorporated
    Places.

Population and housing data from the 1980 census are also available in
low-cost  paper  copy form  or microfiche  from  NTIS.  The reports  are
available for  three  commonly used geographic areas:  state by county,
state  by named  places   with a  population  of  2,500 or  greater,  and
nation  by state  and Standard  Metropolitan Statistical  Area (SMSA).
Buyers  receive a  one-page  comprehensive profile of  information  for
each  geographic  area.    For  example,  the state  by county  report  in-
cludes information for the total state and for each individual county.
For many states,  this information is available for as little as $7.50.
The largest  report,  which  contains  more than  600 profiles,  is  only
$13.50.

     The  BEA  provides  projections of  future  population  in SMSAs  which

     incorporate the "Series E"  projections  of  the Bureau  of the Census.

     These projections can be used to estimate current population and  to

     project future populations   for facilities  planning  areas.   Along with
     population  projections  up   to  the  year  2000,  the  BEA  also  provides

     estimates  by  state for  personal income, per capita income,  average
     earnings by occupation and  the consumer price index.

     The National Register  (Register)  is the primary source of information
     on identified  archaeological,  historic  and architectural resources in
     the United  States.   The Register is a  computer-readable  inventory of
     districts,  sites,  buildings,  structures,  and  objects which  have met
     Federal eligibility  criteria and are  deemed to be  worthy of preser-
     vation.   Properties  meeting National Register  criteria  are nominated
     by the State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPO), or, in the case of
     Federal property, by representatives appointed by agency heads.  Final
     decisions concerning listing on the Register are made by the Secretary
     of the Interior.

     The complete National  Register is available from  the  GPO in the form
     of  a.   printed   two-volume   directory  with  updates.   The  two-volume
     directory is  cumulative through 1978, and  subsequent  annual compila-
     tions   (noncumulative),  normally   published   the   first  Tuesday  in
     February beginning in  1979,  must be consulted  for an  update of list-
     ings.   Additions to  the National Register may  be  found  by consulting
     the Federal  Register published  the first Tuesday of  the month.   The
     National Register also  covers  all historic areas in the National Park
     System and  properties  eligible  for designation as  National Historic
     Landmarks.   Approximately  25,000 properties are currently  listed  in
     the National Register.

     The SHPO  should be  consulted  to identify  all  properties potentially
     and presently eligible  for listing in the National  Register within the
     primary impact  area.   Regulations of the Advisory  Council on Historic
                                  70

     are determined  to be  eligible  for listing in the  National  Register.
     The Advisory  Council  is a  semiautonomous Federal  council,  separate
     from the National Park Service, and is the major  governmental  policy
     advisor  in the  field  of  archaeological  and historic  preservation.
