AI Summary

This bill aims to streamline the review process for natural gas pipeline projects by designating the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) as the lead agency responsible for National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) review, and requiring coordination with other federal and state agencies involved in approving authorizations related to these projects. The bill sets deadlines for agencies to complete their reviews and authorizations, and establishes mechanisms for tracking and improving the efficiency and transparency of the overall review process. The bill also requires FERC to consult with the Transportation Security Administration on security measures related to pipeline infrastructure and personnel.
