Historic Preservation Enhancement Act
This bill increases annual funding for the Historic Preservation Fund from $150 million to $300 million. It mandates that at least 40% of funds go to State Historic Preservation Offices and 20% to Tribal Historic Preservation Offices each year, with tribal allocations adjusted annually based on the number of offices. The bill authorizes funding for specific existing programs, including African American Civil Rights Movement Grants, Equal Rights Grants, Survey Grants for Underrepresented Communities, and Paul Bruhn Historic Revitalization Grants. It requires the President to submit annual allocation plans and reports to Congress detailing how funds are distributed across these programs.
