摘要

The Bush Administration wants to modernize the 32-year-old National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). So the White House Council on Environmental Quality has begun the review and expects to have a report by early next year. That could be good news for mining and other natural resource industries. The White House and natural resource companies say NEPA has become bogged down with regulations that stall federal action for years. The Act was signed into law in 1970 by President Richard Nixon. It requires developers to describe in detail the impact a proposed project will have on the environment. The developer must also design measures to minimize the impacts. A typical environmental impact statement includes detailed analysis by several federal agencies as well as comments from the public. The process is expensive and can take years.
