Project-Level Predecisional Administrative Review Process

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is issuing a final rule amending its Project-Level Predecisional Administrative Review Process regulations. These regulations establish the process by which the public may file objections seeking administrative review of proposed projects and activities implementing land management plans on national forests and grasslands. The Department is amending these regulations to consolidate and streamline processes, increase efficiency, and better align with the Agency's statutory obligations and recent rescissions and revisions to National Environmental Policy Act regulations.
