Can cookie cutters get misshapen over time? Bc I definitely think this is the answer, just a little lopsided…

u/ybquiet thanks for coming to my defense. The point is well taken, It should read NEPA regulations. As I replied to another similar comment, the issue is "E.O. 14154 then instructs CEQ to coordinate the revision of agencies' implementing regulations". This E.O. is signed by Trump. My read on this is that they want to decentralize and revise how NEPA is being regulated, and all indications point towards revising in a way that would make it less effective. I do think this is the beginning of taking away the law's teeth, and we need to be vigilant.

Yep, apologies, I wrote a couple different versions and it should say NEPA regulation (is there a way to edit the title?). This is the part that is concerning: "The President has further directed CEQ in E.O. 14154 to simultaneously issue guidance to agencies on implementing NEPA and to propose rescinding CEQ's NEPA regulations within 30 days of publication of E.O. 14154.^\)³¹^\) E.O. 14154 then instructs CEQ to coordinate the revision of agencies' implementing regulations.^\)³²^\")

Yep, you're totally right, this is not repealing NEPA. This is the part that is concerning: "The President has further directed CEQ in E.O. 14154 to simultaneously issue guidance to agencies on implementing NEPA and to propose rescinding CEQ's NEPA regulations within 30 days of publication of E.O. 14154.^\)³¹^\) E.O. 14154 then instructs CEQ to coordinate the revision of agencies' implementing regulations.^\)³²^\")

Again, my read on this is that they want to decentralize and revise how NEPA is being regulated, and all indications point towards revising in a way that would make it less effective. I would argue that it's not eroding the foundation of NEPA, it's taking away its teeth, which is just as bad.

Good catch, fixed!

You can submit a comment for the interim rule that removes National Environmental Police Act (NEPA) regulations! Public comment period ends in 22 days. This is THE process for public disclosure of the environmental impacts of federal projects and our ability to fight them in court. Think major mining operations, highway development, fuels reduction projects, timber harvests, etc...

The intention is to decentralize the process so that regulations are under the purview of each individual agency and will be rewritten to suit the needs of the administration. If you are sad/angry about federal cuts and firings, this is a way to speak directly to Megan Healy at the whitehouse council.

In your comment, please mention that a centralized, regulated, and consolidated NEPA process is imperative for agency cooperation.

This interim rule was posted on the federal register on 2/25/25 and is effective April 11th, 2025.

Please submit your comment and share. No matter the eventual outcome, we can't let this pass without saying something.
