The Director of the Bureau of Land Management shall offer the public an opportunity to provide feedback on a draft version of each environmental impact statement
Assessments
The verified evidence shows Titus introduced H.R. 10465, the Public Lands Accountability Act, and the bill contains provisions requiring public feedback on draft environmental impact statements. However, the evidence only shows introduction and committee referral, not enactment or implementation of the promised permitting protections. With no documented deadline expired as of 2026-10-09, this is attributable effort but not a delivered or partial outcome.
