HUD could streamline environmental reviews for housing aid, and Indian Tribes could take on review duties.
This bill would let the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) use a simpler environmental review process for some housing aid. It would also allow federally recognized Indian Tribes to handle these reviews themselves for certain housing projects, just like states and local governments already can.
Today, HUD handles environmental reviews for its housing assistance; only states or local governments can take on these duties for certain projects. If this bill becomes law, HUD could use a specific, potentially streamlined, environmental review process for some aid. Federally recognized Indian Tribes could also take on these review duties themselves.
