The activities of the SHPO are overseen on the federal level by the National Park Service, through which the Division receives funding from the National Historic Preservation Fund. On the state level, a number of activities of the Division are carried out under the review of the state Cultural Properties Review Committee (CPRC), a seven-member governor-appointed board of preservation professionals from all parts of New Mexico. With staff support from the Division, the CPRC grants permits for archaeological surveys and excavations, places properties on the State Register of Cultural Properties and makes recommendations for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places, and reviews and approves state income tax credits for rehabilitation and stabilization of registered properties.
Within the system of checks and balances set up in NHPA, the Historic Preservation Division gives New Mexico a strong voice in federal government actions that affect the state's historic heritage. Through the Historic Preservation Division, decision-making about preservation issues is brought down to the state, county and local government levels.
