Standardizing Permitting and Expediting Economic Development (SPEED) Act

planned

The SPEED Act is legislation aimed at modernizing and streamlining the permitting process for infrastructure, energy, and manufacturing projects in the United States. It sets clear deadlines for environmental reviews, reduces duplication across agencies, limits lawsuits that delay projects, and exempts routine infrastructure improvements from lengthy federal reviews. The Act seeks to fast-track responsible development of oil, gas, and renewable energy infrastructure, thereby boosting economic growth, energy independence, and job creation.
