Manchin and Barrasso Introduce Bipartisan Energy Permitting Reform Act on July 22, 2024
Jul 22, 2024, 08:53 PM
On July 22, 2024, Senators Joe Manchin and John Barrasso introduced a bipartisan permitting reform proposal aimed at addressing the nation's energy infrastructure needs. The legislation, known as the Energy Permitting Reform Act, seeks to modernize the permitting process for various energy projects, including transmission, offshore oil and wind leasing, and renewable production on federal lands. The bill includes provisions for judicial review and modest changes to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). The proposal represents a significant step towards improving the permitting process and securing affordable, reliable American energy. The bill takes a comprehensive approach by incorporating ideas from both political parties, such as expanded FERC authority and transmission reform from the Democrats, and mining, oil and gas, and LNG exports from the Republicans.
