San Juan Island National Historical Park Engaging with Coast Salish Tribes and Public on National Register of Historic Places Nomination Friday Harbor, WA — San Juan Island National Historical Park is engaging with participating Coast Salish Tribes and the public on an effort to update the park’s listing on the National Register of Historic Places. The park’s existing National Register listing from 1966, focusses exclusively on historic sites and landmarks in connection with the “Pig War” or Oregon Territory boundary dispute between 1853 and 1872. The updated nomination will recognize additional archeological, historic, and Tribal resources that reflect the rich and diverse history preserved and interpreted by the park for future generations. The public and interested parties are invited to submit comments through this link https://parkplanning.nps.gov/sajhnationalregisternomination through January 13, 2025.
