Extract benefit and heritage clauses from a supplied land-use agreement
Key facts
- Human involvement
- YellowClose supervision
- How AI is used
- Quote the benefit and heritage clauses the supplied agreement already contains, with the page of each. Add a row for 54 USC section 306108 only if the file describes a federal or federally assisted or licensed undertaking, and a row for 25 USC section 3002 only if the file describes excavation on federal or tribal land. Write no conclusion that the site is clear.
- What the lawyer must review
- There is no native-title register and no Indigenous land-use agreement procedure in the sources opened. The quote is the agreement the lawyer supplied. 54 USC section 306108 requires the head of a federal agency with jurisdiction over a federal or federally assisted undertaking, and the head of an agency that licenses an undertaking, to take into account the effect on any historic property before approving federal funds or issuing the license, and to give the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation a reasonable opportunity to comment. The term historic property is used because of the definition in section 300308, which was not opened. 25 USC section 3002 sets ownership of Native American human remains and cultural items excavated or discovered on federal or tribal lands after November 16, 1990, and it permits intentional excavation or removal only if subsection (c) is met. The conditions in subsection (c) were not fully listed here. An agreement between private parties does not perform the agency duty in section 306108 and does not permit an excavation. Opinion 512 and Model Rule 1.6.
