Summary
H.R. 6011 would direct the Departments of Agriculture and the Interior to notify applicants for rights-of-way on federal land whether their application is complete or missing information within 90 days of submission.
Under current law, there is no required timeframe for the agencies to notify those applicants about whether their application is complete or deficient. However, according to the agencies, they both aim to make such notifications within 60 days of an application’s submission.
Because H.R. 6011 would largely codify the agencies’ current timelines, CBO estimates that any administrative costs to implement the bill would total less than $500,000 over the 2024-2029 period. Any spending would be subject to availability of appropriated funds.
