§914. Louisiana Register of Historic Cemeteries
A. The division shall be responsible for establishing and maintaining a register of historic cemeteries located in Louisiana in accordance with the provisions of this Section. The register shall be known as the Louisiana Register of Historic Cemeteries. The register shall be established and maintained for the purpose of recognizing cemeteries as being among the most valuable historic resources of the state of Louisiana as cemeteries can reveal information about the historic events, religion, lifestyles, and genealogy of a local community.
B. The division shall establish an application process by which a cemetery may be nominated to the division for placement on the state register. A cemetery may be nominated by any person, agency, organization, or political subdivision of the state of Louisiana. The division shall make an application for nomination available to any person who requests such application.
C. No cemetery shall be considered for placement on the state register unless it is at least fifty years old, or contains the burial of a person of local, state, or national importance by reason of civic, public or military service, cultural achievement, or historical significance, or contains structures that are considered architecturally significant. Any person, agency, organization, or political subdivision nominating a cemetery to the division for inclusion on the state register shall submit photographs, maps, and any historical data regarding the significance of any such cemetery.
The division shall promulgate such rules and regulations for the nomination, review, and approval of any application submitted pursuant to this Section in accordance with the provisions of R.S. 25:913(B).
D. The division may cooperate with all departments, commissions, boards, agencies, officers, and institutions of the state and all political subdivisions thereof in carrying out the purposes of this Section.
