Limiting environmental reviews for projects without federal land or control.

This act limits when and to what extent the federal government must review the environmental impact of projects. This means projects not on federal land or not directly controlled by the government will face fewer federal environmental checks. This could speed up some developments but also reduce oversight of their environmental effects.
Key points
Projects not on federal land will not require federal environmental review.
Federal funding or interstate effects will no longer automatically trigger a federal environmental review.
The scope of federal environmental review will be limited only to the part of a project on federal land or under federal control.
