North Dakota Century Code Title 55. State Historical Society and State Parks § 55-03-01. Permit required to investigate, evaluate, or mitigate adverse effect on cultural resources, historic buildings, structures, or objects--Application--Fee

Any person engaged in identifying, evaluating, or mitigating adverse effects on cultural resources, historic buildings, structures, or objects on any lands in North Dakota, under 36 CFR 800 or any applicable state law, shall obtain an annual permit from the director of the state historical society. The permit application must be in the form prescribed by the director. Each application must be accompanied by a filing fee as determined by the director. The director may waive the fee requirement if the applicant is an instrumentality of the state. Following issuance of the annual permit, the permittee shall submit to the state historical society payment in the amount determined by the director with every cultural resources identification, monitoring report, evaluation, and mitigation report submitted to the director in compliance with the federal and state statutory and regulatory requirements identified in this section. A permittee submitting a report on behalf of a nonprofit corporation formed under chapter 10-33 does not have to pay the fee for filing the report.
