| 2018-25523 | Rural Development Environmental Regulation for Rural Infrastructure Projects | Rule | The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development (RD), comprised of the Rural Business-Cooperative Service (RBS), Rural Housing Service (RHS), and Rural Utilities Service (RUS), hereafter referred to as the Agency, is issuing a direct final rule to update the Agency's Environmental Policies and Procedures regulation (7 CFR 1970) to allow the Agency Administrators limited flexibility to obligate federal funds for infrastructure projects prior to completion of the environmental review while ensuring full compliance with National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) procedures prior to project construction and disbursement of any RD funding. This change will allow RD to more fully meet the Administration's goals to speed the initiation of infrastructure projects and encourage planned community economic development without additional cost to taxpayers or change to environmental review requirements. | 2018-11-23 | 2018 | 11 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2018/11/23/2018-25523/rural-development-environmental-regulation-for-rural-infrastructure-projects | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2018-11-23/pdf/2018-25523.pdf | Agriculture Department; Rural Business-Cooperative Service; Rural Housing Service; Rural Utilities Service; Farm Service Agency | 12,456,458,460,157 | The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Development (RD), comprised of the Rural Business-Cooperative Service (RBS), Rural Housing Service (RHS), and Rural Utilities Service (RUS), hereafter referred to as the Agency, is issuing a... |
