Please respond to each point in the application, even if there is no information available.  The terms "not applicable" or "unknown" are not acceptable responses. Please also note that SHPO cannot accept requests for Section 106 review via fax or email at this time. Fax submissions are often not clear enough for the reviewer to see the necessary detail and State of Michigan email limits the size of incoming file attachments.

Completed project information should be sent to:
