That EO was issued on January 20\, 2025\, under the President’s legal authorities\, including the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. §§ 1601 et seq.) and 3 USC § 301. For the reasons stated in Section 1 of EO 14156\, the President has found that insufficient energy production\, transportation\, refining\, and generation constitutes an unusual and extraordinary threat to our Nation’s economy\, national security\, and foreign policy and declared a national emergency on the basis of those findings. The President has directed agencies to use\, to the fullest extent possible and consistent with applicable law\, emergency USACE permitting provisions to facilitate the Nation’s energy supply. These special emergency processing procedures have been approved for activities associated with the identification\, siting\, production\, transportation\, refining\, and generation of domestic energy sources\, including energy infrastructure\, that require Department of the Army authorization under Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899\, Section 404 of the Clean Water Act\, and/or Section 103 of the Marine Research\, Protection\, and Sanctuaries Act of 1972\, as amended\, where there would be an unacceptable hazard to life\, a significant loss\nof property\, or an immediate\, unforeseen\, and significant economic hardship if the action\nrequiring a permit is not undertaken within a time period less than the normal time needed to process the application under standard procedures\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo facilitate quick and effective communication given the 7-day comment\nperiod under 800.12(b)(2) ( https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-36/chapter-VIII/part-800/subpart-B/section-800.12 ) the Omaha District intends to submit Section 106\ndocumentation electronically.
