I. Abstract

    Managers of Cape Lookout National Seashore (CALO) are interested in 
identifying ways to reduce the risk of damage to coastal buildings and 
sensitive species from storm surge, sea level rise, and shoreline 
erosion anticipated over the next 20 to 30 years. Of specific interest 
to managers are contemporary cultural resource values and perceptions 
of cultural resource vulnerability and feasible adaptation strategies 
to sustain its cultural resources for future generations. The National 
Park Service will conduct a survey with members of CALO's partner 
organizations and cultural resource experts from federal and state 
agencies and nongovernmental organizations.
    The collection will be used to understand the values these 
stakeholders place on cultural resources within the historic districts, 
and perceptions of strategies to adapt and respond to changes in 
cultural resource conditions from storms, flooding, and erosion. The 
information from this collection will provide NPS managers with 
information that can be used to prepare resource management planning 
documents.
