Such review shall not include agency actions that are mandated by law, necessary for the public interest, and consistent with the policy set forth in section 1 of this order.

The EO has thee deliverables, being called phases. Phase One: (c) Within 45 days of the date of this order, the head of each agency with agency actions described in subsection (a) of this section shall develop and submit to the Director of the Office of Management and Budget (OMB Director) a plan to carry out the review required by subsection (a) of this section the heads of each agency to review all agency actions that potentially burden the safe, efficient development of domestic energy resources and sets timeframes for the review and follow-up actions.
