Immediate Expansion of American Timber Production

This executive order, issued by the President, aims to rapidly increase domestic timber production from federal lands by streamlining regulations and accelerating approval processes. It argues that current federal policies have hindered timber harvesting, leading to job losses, increased wildfire risks, higher construction costs, and reliance on foreign lumber. The order directs multiple federal agencies to expedite timber sales, simplify environmental reviews, and reduce permitting delays within specific deadlines ranging from 30 to 280 days.
