Mitigation spotlight: Jackson County historic newspaper digitization

The Oregon State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), located within Oregon Heritage, a division of Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, consults with agencies whose projects are subject to state and federal  historic preservation laws. When a project on federal land, or funded, licensed, or permitted by a federal agency, effects a historic property, Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 requires that the agency take into consideration those effects. The resolution of any adverse effects is often the development of preservation-minded projects to “mitigate” the impact.

Recently, a project in Jackson County resulted in an adverse effect to the Hopkins Canal. The agreed upon mitigation between the Bureau of Reclamation, Rogue River Valley Irrigation District, and the Oregon SHPO resulted in the digitization of over 4,500 pages of historic newspapers from Jackson County. These pages have been made available to the public on the University of Oregon Library Historic Oregon Newspapers website: https://oregonnews.uoregon.edu/.
