During the 10-year period beginning on the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary shall, to the maximum extent practicable, expedite the review of applications for a covered easement. In carrying out this section, the Secretary shall develop an application to obtain a covered easement that requires an applicant for a covered easement to submit information that includes— all permissible locations for the proposed easement; the corresponding dimensions of the proposed easement; the methods of installation of the water withdrawal intakes; and any other information that the Secretary may require to complete the review.
Not later than 30 days after the date on which the Secretary receives an application under subsection (b), the Secretary shall seek to provide to the applicant a written notification that states— whether the application is complete; and if the application is not complete, what information is needed for the application to be complete. To the maximum extent practicable, not later than 120 days after the date on which the Secretary receives a complete application for a covered easement, the Secretary shall approve or deny the application for the covered easement.
In this section, the term covered easement means an easement necessary to access Federal land under the control of the Secretary for the placement of water withdrawal intakes in the Upper Missouri Mainstem Reservoirs that does not otherwise involve the alteration or modification of any structures or facilities located on that Federal land, other than those owned by the non-Federal interest. Nothing in this section affects any obligation to comply with the provisions of any Federal law, including— the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 ( 42 U.S.C. 4321 et seq.); and the Federal Water Pollution Control Act ( 33 U.S.C. 1251 et seq.).
