Committee on Energy and Natural Resources. Ordered to be reported with an amendment in the nature of a substitute favorably.
Summary
The bill lets anyone who appeals a Department of the Interior decision before the Interior Board of Land Appeals request a faster review. If the board receives a written request, it must issue a final decision within six months, but not sooner than 18 months after the original filing. If the board misses the deadline, the agency’s decision becomes final and can be challenged in court without deference.
