AN ACT ENHANCING ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITTING PREDICTABILITY.

This bill makes environmental permitting more predictable for developers and state agencies by requiring clear timelines and consistent standards for permit reviews. It mandates that agencies follow specific timeframes for processing applications and establishes uniform criteria for approvals, reducing delays. The law, signed by the governor on June 23, 2025, directly affects developers seeking construction or land-use permits and state environmental agencies managing the process. It aims to create a more transparent system without altering environmental protection requirements.
