Today, the Trump Administration announced its long-awaited release of updates to National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) implementation regulations (Regulations). On June 20, 2018, the administration published an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPR) and sought public comment on how the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) could ensure more effective, timely, and efficient NEPA process. During the 60-day comment period on the ANPR, more than 12,500 comments were received.
The administration has indicated the proposed Regulations will be posted to the Federal Register on Friday, January 10th, and that publication of the Regulations would commence a 60-day public comment period.
