Summary

The SPEED Act reforms the National Environmental Policy Act to clarify it is purely procedural and does not mandate specific environmental outcomes. The bill limits environmental reviews to proximate effects, extends programmatic document validity from 5 to 10 years, prevents agencies from delaying projects to wait for new research, and allows recognition of state environmental reviews.
