Federal agencies whose work affects Lowell National Historical Park must work with the Secretary of the Interior and the Commission. They must follow the park's preservation standards and avoid harming the park's resources. A federal agency cannot issue a license or permit for activity in the park unless it meets these same rules.
(a) Activities directly affecting park*
Any federal agency that does something affecting the park or preservation district* must talk with, work with, and coordinate with the Secretary* and the Commission* as much as it reasonably can. The agency must also carry out its activities so that, as much as practical, they (A) match the standards and criteria set under section 410cc–32(e), and (B) do not harm the park's or district's resources.
(b) Determination as to proposed activities
A federal agency cannot give any person a license or permit to do something in the park or district unless the agency first decides that the activity will follow the standards and criteria under section 410cc–32(e) and will not harm the park's or district's resources.
Any Federal entity conducting or supporting activities directly affecting the park or preservation district* shall—
consult with, cooperate with, and to the maximum extent practicable, coordinate its activities with the Secretary* and with the Commission*; and
conduct or support such activities in a manner which (A) to the maximum extent practicable is consistent with the standards and criteria established pursuant to section 410cc–32(e) of this title, and (B) will not have an adverse effect on the resources of the park or preservation district.
No Federal entity may issue any license or permit to any person to conduct an activity within the park or preservation district unless such entity determines that the proposed activity will be conducted in a manner consistent with the standards and criteria established pursuant to section 410cc–32(e) of this title and will not have an adverse effect on the resources of the park or preservation district.
