Dear Mr. Denton:

We have been informed that the placement of cransmission lines associated with construction on the Seabrook Station, an undertaking of the Nuclear Regulatory Comission, may have an effect on the South Hampton Historic District, South Hampton, New Hampshire. This property may possess historical and architectural significar.ce and therefore may be eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places.

Section 800.4(a) of the Council's regulations, " Protection of Historic and Cultural Properties" (36 CFR Part 800), sets forth the method of evaluating the significance of such properties. We request that you initiate this evaluation and inform us of your findings.

If the evaluation results in a determination by the Secretary of the Interior that the croperty is eligible for inclusion in the National Register, you should follow the remaining steps in Section 800.4 to evaluate the effect of the undertaking on the property and, if appropriate, request the Council's comments. Should you have any questions or require additional assistance, please call Joseph P. Mough at 254-3495.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Sincerely,
