I. Executive Summary Please provide an executive summary highlighting key activities your bureau/office is doing to alleviate or eliminate actions that potentially burden development or use of domestically produced energy resources.

Recommendations for Alleviating or Eliminating Burdensome Actions A. Climate Change Actions For each climate change action with the potential to burden development or use of domestically produced energy resources, provide: 1. Description. Describe the action, including whether the action is a policy, rule, or other document and how the action potentially burdens development or use of domestically produced energy resources 2. Opportunities to Address Burden or Other Issues of Concern. Describe how the action is being addressed to reduce burden on energy (rescission, revision, suspension, publication for public comment, or otherwise). Include an estimated timelinefor addressing the action. Also describe plansfor obtainingpublic input. 3. Anticipated Benefits. Describe benefits to be obtained by addressing the action and quantify benefits by filling in attached spreadsheet. 4. Measuring Success. Describe how the reduction in burden will be measured, including key timelines or benchmarks. 5. Interim Methods. Describe whether there are any interim compliance requirements, such as variances or waivers, that could be put into place pending longer-term revisions to regulations, and plans for instituting them. 1 INTERNAL DELIBERATIONS - DO NOT DISTRIBUTE B.
