Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill applies to projects that permanently remove communications equipment or services listed under the Secure and Trusted Communications Networks Act of 2019 and replace them with equipment or services not on that list. Federal permits and approvals for these projects would not count as major federal actions under the National Environmental Policy Act, so the environmental reviews that law requires would not apply. These projects also would not count as undertakings under the National Historic Preservation Act, so the historic preservation reviews that law requires would not apply.
