The Secretary must work with historical and archeological groups to set criteria for the National Register and National Historic Landmarks. The Secretary must also write rules for nominating, designating, appealing, and giving public notice about these listings, including nominations to the World Heritage List.

The Secretary must work with national historical and archeological associations to do two things. (1) Set criteria. The Secretary must establish the criteria a property needs to meet to go on the National Register, and separate criteria for National Historic Landmarks. (2) Write regulations. The Secretary must write rules covering six things: (A) how properties get nominated for, or removed from, the National Register, including how certified local governments can recommend properties; (B) how properties get designated as National Historic Landmarks, and how that designation gets removed; (C) how to handle appeals of recommendations, nominations, removals, and designations — including when a nominating authority fails or refuses to nominate or designate a property; (D) how to nominate historic property for the World Heritage List under the World Heritage Convention; (E) how to determine whether a property is eligible for the National Register; and (F) how to notify the property's owner, local governments, and the public when a property is being considered for the National Register, for National Historic Landmark status, or for the World Heritage List.
