- National Energy Policy, May 2001
By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to take additional steps to expedite the increased supply and availability of energy to our Nation, it is hereby ordered as follows:
Sec. 1. Policy.
The increased production and transmission of energy in a safe and environmentally sound manner is essential to the well-being of the American people. In general, it is the policy of this Administration that executive departments and agencies (agencies) shall take appropriate actions, to the extent consistent with applicable law, to expedite projects that will increase the production, transmission, or conservation of energy....

(a) The authority vested in the President by section 5(a) of the act of July 26, 1935, ch. 417, 49 Stat. 501, as amended (44 U.S.C. 1505(a)), to determine from time to time the documents or classes of documents having general applicability and legal effect....
I realize some of the language is about procedural processes, but, I think that exactly the problem. The Executive Orders have been left to fester in old paradigms of government without bring current climate conditions to impact any permitting.
Besides ridiculing the assessment, there is significant reasons to assault the very law that provides for the permits. The permitting processes have NOT kept up with changing climate conditions that imperil the lives of USA citizens and the future of our children.
