AI Summary
This bill, also known as the DIGITAL Applications Act, requires the Department of the Interior and the Department of Agriculture to create online portals within one year of enactment for accepting, processing, and disposing of a specific form, Form 299. This form is used for communications use authorizations, which are essentially permissions like easements or licenses granted by these departments to place or modify communications facilities on public lands or National Forest System land for the primary purpose of communications use. Once established, the Secretaries of these departments must notify the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Communications and Information, who will then publish links to these portals on the National Telecommunications and Information Administration's website.
