Hawaii Historic Places Review Board

The Hawaii Historic Places Review Board is the State Historic Preservation Office body that evaluates nominations to the Hawaii Register of Historic Places and advises on the identification, evaluation, and protection of the state's historic and cultural resources. It reviews Section 106 consultations for federally funded or permitted projects that may affect historic properties. The board also advises on historic preservation grants and tax credit applications.

If you live near or own a property that may qualify for historic designation, or if a development project in your area could affect historic sites including Native Hawaiian cultural sites, this board's decisions are directly relevant. Historic preservation can affect both development rights and property values.
