New Permitting Action Plan Released
Today, the White House released a new Permitting Action Plan. The Action Plan outlines the Administration’s strategy for accelerating federal permitting and environmental reviews of infrastructure projects.
The five key elements of the plan are:
- Accelerating smart permitting through early cross-agency coordination
- Establishing clear timeline goals and tracking key project information
- Engaging in early and meaningful outreach with states, tribal nations, territories, and local communities
- Improving agency responsiveness, technical assistance, and support
- Using agency resources and environmental reviews to improve impact
