2025 ACEC-NH & NHDOT Technical Exchange Conference
Thursday April 17, 2025 3:30pm - 4:30pm EDT
Session 16A: Make Mitigation Great Again (or, Not Another Kiosk!)
Speaker: Jill Edelmann, NHDOT; Kimberly Peace, Hoyle Tanner
- This presentation will explore alternative and innovative examples of recent historic mitigation developed under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The focus will be on creating beneficial mitigation acceptable to project stakeholders such as NHDHR and FHWA that will have long lasting effects. Sometimes called “creative mitigation,” this session will provide examples from across the state of historic mitigation, showcasing how the decisions were made, what players should be at the table, why proper planning is important and how it can benefit you.

Session 16B: EMMIT+
Speakers: Tanya Krajcik, NH Department of Natural & Cultural Resources
- It’s the end of an era. In the beginning of 2025 the New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources (DHR) stopped accepting paper submissions for projects seeking DHR comments on federal and state reviews as the office transitions to its new web-based cultural resource information system. This new system synchronizes with an updated EMMIT research tool and allows applicants to submit required documentation electronically with direct access to project tracking and digital review responses by DHR staff. Known as EMMIT+, this online system replaces the paper-only, mail-oriented, Request for Project Review Form in order to initiate federal and state project reviews and related survey products. This session will showcase a live demonstration followed by Q&A.
