AI Summary
This bill, the NEPA Data Transparency and Accountability Act, amends the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to require federal agencies to submit annual reports to Congress containing information about their NEPA processes. Specifically, the bill requires agencies to report on the number of proposed actions that received categorical exclusions, environmental assessments, and environmental impact statements, as well as the time it took to complete each type of review. Additionally, the bill directs the Chair of the Council on Environmental Quality and the Director of the Office of Management and Budget to develop a methodology for assessing the comprehensive costs of the NEPA process, which each agency must then use to annually report on the costs of NEPA compliance for their proposed actions.
