GRANTED Act of 2025

Bill 119 hr 1836, also known as the "Federal Easement Application Deadline Act," seeks to amend the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012 in order to streamline the process for obtaining federal easements, right-of-ways, or leases for communications facility installations.

The main provision of the bill states that if an application for a federal easement, right-of-way, or lease with respect to a communications facility installation is not granted or denied by the specified deadline, it will be deemed granted. This aims to prevent delays in the approval process and ensure that communication infrastructure projects can move forward in a timely manner.

In addition to this key provision, the bill also includes other purposes related to the facilitation of communication facility installations on federal lands. Overall, the goal of Bill 119 hr 1836 is to expedite the approval process for federal easements, right-of-ways, or leases for communication facility installations, ultimately promoting the development of communication infrastructure in the United States.
