One of the first executive order President Trump was issued to “unleash American energy.”
It begins to cancel the harm caused by the unprecedented attack of the Biden administration to the US Energy Division. It overturns President Biden's destructive presidential order, cancels oil leasing, prioritizes environmental regulations over economic interests, and creates reliable energy.
It also orders to cancel excessive burden energy regulations. Trump's EO is frankly stated that energy production is to encourage the United States as “satisfying citizens' needs and solidifying the United States as global energy leaders.” (Related: Houston Kene: Bureaucratic Meltdown has already begun)
This presidential order leads the country in a completely new direction. The institution is ordered to audit policies to eliminate the burden that affects energy development. Ends the infamous Green New Deal. Give priority to employment and economic impact in energy policy. In addition, the Energy Project is canceled to reduce the burden of famous environmental research.
One of the reforms that is less powerful and environmental but has no effect is to allow reform. President Trump's order is instructed to the institution to “eliminate all delays in each permission process, including the use of permissions by general permission and rules.”
This type of permission reform should have a positive impact on all Americans. We all know how difficult it is to get, even if it's smaller than energy. For example, when you add it to your house, you need to submit it to the government and pray that everything is right.
After that, when the government reviews the application, the waiting game starts, and it is necessary to make a whim, and eventually the project can move forward. It can be expensive and time -consuming, and sometimes people can even prevent even trying.
The same applies to a large scale. Permissions on major projects such as oilwell can take more than 10 years to jump over all hoops. And since the federal government is a gatekeeper of various types of activities that requires permission, anyone in charge of the administrative department can make the project inconvenience.
The rules and general permission will dramatically simplify the process and reduce the burden on both the applicant and the government. They are simple and predictable. Regarding both types of permission, the government first determines the standards required for someone to meet before the authorized act is started. The government promulgates the criteria for all people to see and know.
Applicants can accurately know what they need to perform the permitted act and move the project quickly. There is no need to contact the government for general permission. The permit can start a project as long as you meet the prior criteria.
For the permission of the rules, the applicant must prove to the government in writing that all criteria are met. In response, the government can only check to confirm whether the correct certification is being performed, explain whether to approve it, or to return the certification. 。 This is done in a short period of time, such as 30 days.
In both cases, the government does not have discretion in a case -by -case case. Instead of focusing as a gatekeeper of the permit, the government focuses only on non -permit who does not meet the standards, rear The permission has started the project. The role of the government focuses on execution measures.
Both are benefited from this system. For those who behave correctly, the permission process does not maintain the project. For the government, resource emissions to supervise permission are significantly reduced. The government only focuses the minority party.
This system also has the built -in deterrent. If a permit starts a project, the government will lose significant investment, just closing the project later through execution measures.
The true benefits are for Americans. If energy companies can get quick, quick and quick permission, energy supply can be expanded faster. This reduces energy costs and all products. Natural disasters can lead to faster reconstruction. You can introduce infrastructure faster. The advantages continue endlessly.
Acting on reforms as mentioned in President Trump is a wonderful first step toward the government. His agency needs to use as many permissions as possible for as many permissions as possible, with as many permissions as possible, with as many permissions as possible.
