Agencies who handle the federal permitting process for roads, bridges and other infrastructure

programs are on the hook to modernize the technology that runs these systems and share data more easily. President Donald Trump's latest executive order says the Council on Environmental Quality has 45 days to develop a Permitting Technology Action Plan that will include initial technology and data standards.  The action plan also will provide a roadmap for creating a unified interagency permitting and environmental review data system. Agencies then will have 90 days to implement the data and technology standards and minimum functional requirements for the new interagency system. CEQ also will  lead an interagency Permitting Innovation Center that will design and test prototype tools that could be implemented as part of the

Permitting Technology Action Plan.
