Jurisdiction & environmental lookup
Draw or click a point anywhere in Arizona to see which federal / tribal / state / local agency owns or manages the land, whether it sits in a FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area, and which NRHP-listed properties lie nearby. Designed for Section 106 / NEPA consultants preparing scoping memos.
Jurisdiction, flood zone, tribal consultation requirement, nearest historic route, and closest NRHP-listed properties will appear here.

Section 106 consultation depends on knowing the federal nexus (is there a federal agency that must consult?), tribal nexus (do sovereign tribes need to be consulted under NAGPRA or NHPA §106?), and environmental nexus (does FEMA flood designation trigger additional review?). A typical scoping memo takes 30–60 minutes of cross-referencing FOIA'd shapefiles today; here it's one click.
