Speeds up broadband buildout by exempting certain work inside a right‑of‑way on Federal land from two reviews: the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) “major Federal action” review and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) “undertaking” review.
It applies only to defined broadband projects and providers working within a right‑of‑way on Federal land and clarifies what those terms mean, along with what counts as a Federal authorization. It does not address funding or taxes and only changes how these two reviews apply to covered broadband activities.
Referred to the Committee on Energy and Commerce, and in addition to the Committee on Natural Resources, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned.
