Recission of Procedures for Implementing the National Environmental Policy Act (Final)
Jul. 3, 2025
This interim final rule rescinds DON's regulations implementing the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), because the Council on Environmental Quality's (CEQ) NEPA regulations, which they were meant to supplement, have been rescinded, and because the DoD is promulgating Department-wide NEPA procedures that will guide the Navy's NEPA process. In addition, this interim final rule requests comments on this action. This interim final rule is effective 3 July 2025. Comments must be received on or before 4 August 2025. For further information contact Ms. Amy Farak, Office of the Deputy Assistance Secretary of the Navy (Environment and Mission Readiness); tele: 703-695-4216.
