The Biden administration plans to restore three major provisions to a bedrock environmental law that were rolled back under President Donald Trump, it announced Wednesday.
The White House Council on Environmental Quality said it plans to restore the National Environmental Policy Act, which requires federal agencies to assess the environmental impact of projects such as the construction of mines, highways, water infrastructure and gas pipelines.The changes will come in two phases, the first of which is reinstating three key aspects of the law that were dismantled by the Trump administration.
When Trump weakened the law in July 2020, he did so under the guise of rolling back onerous bureaucratic red tape that he said made it harder to complete projects. Environmental advocates criticized it as another example of the Trump administration dismantling important safety guards that protect the environment and public health.
