## Text

A. In order to carry out the duties delegated to it, the CLG shall employ or have regular access by contract or letter of agreement to the equivalent of one professional who meets the professional qualification standards of the secretary of the interior’s standards and guidelines for archaeology and historic preservation. The HPD will consider written proposals for alternative arrangements for CLGs who submit evidence that they have not been able to obtain such expertise due to a lack of financial resources or available professionals. Such alternatives must ensure that adequate expertise exists to allow the CLG to undertake its responsibilities. B. Consultants shall be approved by the HPD to ensure that personnel have the necessary skills to carry out the specific responsibilities of that CLG. Staff requirements will vary according to the types of programs which the CLG undertakes and the duties delegated to it.
