H.R.3668 Pipeline Reviews Act
Streamlines natural gas pipeline permitting and reduces environmental review requirements (119th Congress)
View on Congress.govLegal & Constitutional Grounding
NEPA (42 USC 4321) requires environmental review; streamlining pipeline permitting weakens documented safety protections.
42 U.S.C. § 4321 et seq. — NEPA: environmental review requirements for major federal actions
- 15 U.S.C. § 717 et seq. — Natural Gas Act: FERC pipeline certification authority
Expedited pipeline review legislation. Weakening pipeline environmental review undermines documented safety and environmental protections under NEPA.
