Title: National Environmental Policy Act Implementing Procedures | |
Abstract:
We are proposing to amend the regulations that set out our National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) implementing procedures. The amendments would clarify when we would complete an environmental impact statement or an environmental analysis for an action, provide additional categories of actions for which we would prepare such documents, expand the list of actions subject to categorical exclusion from further environmental documentation, and set out an environmental documentation process that could be used in emergencies. The proposed changes are intended to update the regulations and improve their clarity and effectiveness. |
