Oregon Second District Congressman Cliff Bentz has introduced a bill to allow the U. S. Forest Service to utilize the same exemptions from the National Environment Policy Act as other federal agencies when working to implement joint projects that can range from wildfire preparedness and response to certain land management and infrastructure activities.  Bentz said in a House floor speech that the Commonsense Coordination Act would eliminate duplicative paperwork for potentially life and property saving federal projects that do not require an environmental assessment nor an environmental impact statement.  Nine Republican Representatives are co-sponsoring the bill.
