Infrastructure

When Biden signed the infrastructure bill many cheered but others feared that environmentalist would interfere with the various projects. Here is a news quote. There they go again! The "they" is Team Biden. The "again" is another round of massive regulatory increases that will cost millions of hard-hat blue collar jobs and prevent any new energy pipelines, probably new utilities and virtually stop the construction of new or extended bridges, highways and tunnels.   The move will significantly raise environmental reviews of all these infrastructure type projects, completely reversing one of Donald Trump's best policies which streamlined NEPA (National Environment Policy Act) permits and timetables.  In addition to the normal environmental regs the new construction will have to contend with climate change. A final rule announced Tuesday by the White House will require agencies to assess the climate impact of roads, pipelines and other infrastructure Many expect long delays and higher cost for infrastructure projects.
