DISASTER  NEWS
Heritage Preservation hosted a  conference call May 11 with members of the 
Heritage  Emergency National Task Force and representatives of  affected 
states to review damage to cultural heritage from  recent tornadoes and 
flooding.  The tornados do not  appear to have caused significant damage to 
museums,  libraries, or archives.  Although the extent of damage  from the 
Mississippi River flooding remains to be seen, it  appears that stewards of cultural 
resources have had  sufficient early warning to move collections out of harm
’s  way.  The most extensive cultural losses to date have  been to 
individuals that have lost family treasures.   Heritage Preservation has issued news 
releases in affected  areas with advice for salvaging personal  
collections. 

GRANT
We  are pleased to announce that the National Endowment for the  Arts has 
awarded Heritage Preservation a grant of $45,000  for the Rescue Public 
Murals program.  With this grant,  we will identify and promote best practices 
for creating and  maintaining murals that will last.  New web pages to be  
developed in the course of the project will provide  information on surfaces, 
paints, coatings, application of  materials, and maintenance procedures.
