1018-BJ12 202510 The Regulatory Plan and the Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions 1018 United States Fish and Wildlife Service FWS 1000 Department of the Interior DOI National Wildlife Refuge System; Rescission of Regulations Regarding Public Safety Provisions and Prohibited Acts on National Wildlife Refuges

Executive Order 14219 of February 19, 2025, Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President’s Department of Government Efficiency Deregulatory Initiative (90 FR 10583), and subsequent implementing memorandum, directed all agency heads to review regulations within their purview and rescind those that are, among other things, unlawful or unnecessary. Accordingly, the Service will review the current regulations for the National Wildlife Refuge System at 50 CFR 25, 26, and 38, and we will propose to remove regulations to ensure a less complicated regulatory environment for the American people to use their trust resources and reduce unnecessary and confusing regulations.
