Environmental Permitting is Getting Better
It's not that permitting change might happen. It has changed, is changing, and will change more. We’ve had a great collaboration with the team at Inclusive Abundance these last 15 days, hearing about 15 ‘wins’ for permitting reform they wanted to celebrate. We are starting our own 15-day countdown now. It’s a great way to acknowledge all the progress underway to make environmental permitting laws and programs that better serve the planet, people, and our prosperity.

A Look At CEQ’s New CE Explorer
On June 5th, the CEQ’s Permitting Innovation Center released their first prototype experiment, the Categorical Exclusion Explorer. The Explorer is the first time a collection of cross-agency Categorical Exclusions (CEs) has been transformed into data for experimentation. This is still in the experimental stage, and we applaud the Permitting Innovation Center for releasing early-stage products and experiments. Early and iterative releases are ideal for gathering feedback and improving future releases.
We’ve discussed using existing environmental review data management and sharing as an area ripe for experimentation and innovation.
