A bill to amend the Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 to provide for the denial of certain applications for solar or wind energy development projects right-of-way applications.

Plain-language summary

This bill would change federal law to allow the government to reject applications for solar or wind energy projects on public lands managed by the Interior Department.

Currently, the government must consider these applications under existing rules. The bill is in its early stage after being introduced by two Idaho senators.
