Title: Procedures for Considering Environmental Impacts 
Abstract:

This rulemaking would be the second notice of proposed rulemaking to update the U.S. Department of Transportation's procedures implementing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), which requires agencies to consider the environmental impacts of proposed major Federal actions.  The Department last updated its procedures in 1985.  This rulemaking would make DOT's environmental review process more efficient and effective and would be consistent with Council on Environmental Quality’s (CEQ) final rule amending the CEQ NEPA implementing regulations at 40 CFR 1500-1508.
