H.R. 1 would require the Department of the Interior (DOI) to conduct additional sales of oil and gas leases on the Outer Continental Shelf, reduce royalty rates for new onshore oil and gas leases, and authorize DOI to spend, without further appropriation, certain receipts from oil, gas, and wind leases. The bill also would repeal some programs of the Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency that were established by Public Law 117-169 (an Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of S. Con. Res. 14) and would rescind unobligated balances of amounts made available for those programs. Additionally, H.R. 1 would amend provisions of current law that regulate permitting of certain proposed energy-related projects.
