Description: Description: The National Register of Historic Places is the official list of the nation's historic places worthy of preservation. Authorized by the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, the National Register is the official Federal list of districts, sites, buildings, structures, and objects significant in American history, architecture, archeology, engineering, and culture. The National Register is managed and maintained by the National Park Service (NPS) and directed by the Keeper of the National Register. National Register properties may be significant because of their importance to local and state communities; their significance can also stem from their importance to the history and shared patrimony of the nation. Nominations for listing historic properties generally come from State Historic Preservation Officers; Federal Preservation Officers for properties owned or controlled by the United States Government; and, Tribal Historic Preservation Officers for properties on Tribal lands. Private individuals and organizations, local governments, and tribal members often initiate this process and prepare the necessary documentation which goes through a rigorous review process by the NPS prior to official listing in the National Register, National Historic Landmarks are those historic properties on the National Register that have been recognized for their exceptional significance in the history of the United States and are afforded special protections under Federal law. http://nrhp.focus.nps.gov/natreg/docs/Download.html

Description: The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) is the Federal standard for geographic nomenclature. The U.S. Geological Survey developed the GNIS for the U.S. Board on Geographic Names, a Federal inter-agency body chartered by public law to maintain uniform feature name usage throughout the Government and to promulgate standard names to the public. The GNIS is the official repository of domestic geographic names data; the official vehicle for geographic names use by all departments of the Federal Government; and the source for applying geographic names to Federal electronic and printed products of all types. See http://geonames.usgs.gov for additional information.
