Bill overview
This bill directs the Departments of the Interior and Agriculture to study how to speed up the review process for requests to use public lands and National Forest System land for communications facilities. Specifically, the Secretaries will investigate barriers to timely reviews, consider potential rule changes, and develop a plan to ensure adequate staffing for these reviews. The goal is to facilitate broadband deployment by streamlining the authorization process for companies seeking to build communication infrastructure on public lands.
