The bill amends the National Environmental Policy Act to limit the scope of environmental reviews required for projects involving federal land and actions under federal control.

  • 42 U.S.C. § 4321

    SEC. 106. APPLICATION LIMITED TO FEDERAL LAND AND CERTAIN FEDERAL ACTIONS. (a) In General.--Under section 102(2)(C), the term `major Federal action' does not include a project or action that-- (1) does not involve Federal land; and (2) is not subject to Federal control and responsibility. (b) Exclusion.--A project or action may not be determined to be a major Federal action under section 102(2)(C) on the basis of-- (1) an interstate effect of such project or action; or (2) the provision of Federal funds for such project or activity. (c) Scope of Review.--The scope of any review under section 102 shall extend only to so much of a major Federal action as is-- (1) on Federal land; or (2) is subject to Federal control and responsibility.

    This creates a new section that limits the definition and review of major Federal actions to those that involve federal land or are under federal control.
