Hi Thomas, could you check in and confirm with the DCs that they have reviewed & approved the attached papers? If they
have not, the need to do so by close of business monday (and sooner is better).
Note that fire & fuels says it is us, but we've already passed that on to Ron for FA100 review.
I did a quick skim and these seem ok except the current actions are written as future tense, but we did already finish the tasks listed as per the due dates in the SO.
thanks Karen

Implementation of S.O. 3349, American Energy Independence
Key Points Secretarial Order (S.O.) 3349, American Energy Independence implements the review directed by Executive Order (E.O.) 13783, Promoting Energy Independence and Economic Growth, focusing on decreasing the regulatory burden associated with energy production. In addition, S.O. 3349 revokes S.O. 3330, Improving Mitigation Policies and Practices of the Department of the Interior, and directs DOI bureaus to identify all actions taken related to S.O. 3330 and the 2015 Presidential Memorandum, Mitigating Impacts on Natural Resources from Development and Encouraging Related Private Investment. In addition, E.O. 13783 rescinded several climate change related directives, and S.O. 3349 directs DOI bureaus to identify all action taken related to the rescinded climate change directives. Finally, S.O. 3349 specifically directs the BLM to review a number of other agency actions that may place an unnecessary burden on domestic energy development.
Background S.O. 3330 established a DOI-wide mitigation strategy through a landscape-scale approach, early integration of mitigation considerations in project planning and design, and considering the durability, transparency and consistency of mitigation measures. o Consistent with S.O. 3330, the BLM finalized its interim (June 2013) mitigation
policy, incorporating the S.O. 3330 strategy and issuing a Mitigation Manual (MS1794) and Mitigation Handbook (H-1794-1) in December 2016. The Report of the Executive Office of the President of June 2013, The President's Climate Action Plan contained three broad goals related to climate change mitigation, adaptation, and international leadership. o As directed by the Council on Environmental Quality Guidance that derived from this report and other executive actions, the BLM integrated a more quantitative approach to the consideration of greenhouse gases and climate change into its decision-making and planning processes. The BLM also manages public land to address wildfire, drought, and other issues that relate to adaptation.
Current Status The BLM is providing a list of all actions to the Secretary adopted or in the process of being developed on mitigation and climate change since the policies specified in the S.O. 3349 were issued. The BLM is identifying all existing agency actions that potentially affect the development or utilization of domestic oil, natural gas, coal, and nuclear energy resources. The BLM is following the proper process for rescinding Oil and Gas; Hydraulic Fracturing on Federal and Indian Lands and considering ifand replacing it with a new proposed rule. The BLM is reviewed final rule titled Waste Prevention, Production Subject to Royalties, and Resource Conservation to ensure its consistency with E.O. 13783.
