Trump Administration Finalizes NEPA Regulations
U.S. Senator Kevin Cramer (R-ND), Chairman of the Senate Environment and Public Works (EPW) Subcommittee on Fisheries, Water, and Wildlife, sent The Crude Life the following statement on President Donald J. Trump announcing his Administration finalized its rule to update National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) regulations today:
“President Trump wants to rebuild America’s infrastructure with fewer hurdles from Washington’s overbearing bureaucracy.
