  • FACT SHEET Oppose State Takeover of NEPA Analysis
    FACT SHEET Oppose State Takeover of NEPA Analysis WHY NEPA IS IMPORTANT The National Environmental Policy Act, signed into law by President Nixon, was our country’s first major law establishing national environmental priorities. It was also landmark legislation regarding public transparency and accountability. Today, we take for granted that the public has a right to participate in federal decision-making processes, but in fact it was NEPA that first established this right. Implementation of NEPA on our federal lands triggers numerous other important federal laws, such as those requiring multiple-use management, historic preservation laws, endangered species protection, the Freedom of Information Act and more. NEPA requires that the federal government evaluate the environmental impacts of their proposed actions, and inform and engage the public in these assessments and decisions. The NEPA process is complex - balancing many competing and sometimes conflicting national and local priorities. REASONS TO OPPOSE STATE TAKEOVER OF NEPA: ● Our national public lands belong to all Americans. The state of Wyoming is ill-suited to ​ ​ objectively evaluate and balance the many national interests for these lands. We need the national outlook in the NEPA process to protect these lands from short-sighted exploitation. Wyoming citizens have repeatedly shown they do not support transfer of ownership or management of these lands to the state. ● The proposal is not legal. There is no such thing as state “primacy” for NEPA. We would need to ​ see Congress change many laws to forward this effort. The legislature has far more important and pragmatic issues to focus on. ● The state has no experience managing lands for multiple use.
