The Maryland Historical Trust encourages agencies and recipients of federal and state
assistance to initiate consultation during preliminary project planning. Early
consultation allows time to successfully complete the review in advance of
construction and may help facilitate permit or funding approvals.
As a first step in submitting a project, agencies or project sponsors should review the
"Project Review Fact
Sheet," which lists the information that must be provided to
MHT. Use of MHT's Project
Review Form is optional. To request MHT review,
submit a completed form or cover letter and include the required attachments and
mail to the address listed below. Faxes and email are not acceptable.

MHT logs all submittals into a database to track each review by the appropriate staff.
MHT strives to provide comments on all projects within 30 days; this often completes
the Section 106 process. Providing MHT with detailed and accurate information
greatly facilitates the review and decreases response time. Project sponsors contacting
MHT on behalf of an agency should clearly identify the responsible state or federal
agency.
The Project Reviewers page
identifies likely staff assignments for each agency and geographic area.
MHT also reviews projects on properties on which it holds a preservation
easement or those for which owners are applying for
state or federal rehabilitation tax credits or
MHT grants. If these situations apply to your property see these links for more
information.
