In a January 24th Presidential Memorandum, President Trump urged
the Commerce Department to develop a "permitting streamlining
action plan" recommending policy and procedural changes that
will boost domestic manufacturing. The manufacturing sector
frequently cites regulatory requirements, including delays in the
processing of necessary permits, as barriers to investment in
domestic manufacturing projects. It is anticipated that the Trump
memo could cover a number of environmental permits such as Title V
operating permits, new source review permits, as well as national
pollutant discharge elimination system permits. The policy contains
no details; however, industry trade organizations are optimistic
that the memo will spur the EPA and state regulators into examining
and streamlining their permitting processes.
