Rule/Notice/NOFO: CEQ, NEPA Implementing Regulations Revisions Phase 2

Federal Register/Notice: govinfo.gov

Type of Requirement:  Request for Comment

Description:  CEQ is proposing this ‘‘Bipartisan Permitting Reform Implementation Rule’’ to revise its regulations for implementing the procedural provisions of NEPA, including to implement the Fiscal Responsibility Act’s amendments to NEPA. CEQ proposes the revisions to provide for an effective environmental review process that promotes better decision making; ensure full and fair public involvement; provide for an efficient process and regulatory certainty; and provide for sound decision making grounded in science, including consideration of relevant environmental, climate change, and environmental justice effects.

How is it enforced by FTA, DOT, Direct grant requirement, triennial review or other?  CEQ delegates authority to FTA to enforce these requirements through its triennial review program.

Is there a cost or time impact to grantees (best estimate):  TBD
