Other National Heritage Areas in the United States

The Great Basin Heritage Area Partnership acquired designation from Congress as a National Heritage Area October 13, 2006. The State of Utah has recognized the Great Basin Heritage Route and the partnership has approached the State of Nevada for similar recognition. Congress has established 24 National Heritage Areas around the country, in which conservation, interpretation and other activities are managed by partnerships among federal, state, and local governments and the private sector. The National Park Service provides technical assistance as well as financial assistance for a limited number of years following designation.
