Reinvigorating America’s Beautiful Clean Coal Industry and Amending Executive Order 14241

The order directs Federal agencies to increase domestic energy production, particularly in the coal industry. The National Energy Dominance Council is to designate coal as a "mineral," thus allowing it to receive all benefits under Executive Order 14241. The Secretaries of the Interior, Agriculture, and Energy are to identify coal resources on federal lands and propose policies to address any impediments to their mining, with a focus on the potential impact on electricity costs and grid reliability. The Secretary of the Interior and the Secretary of Agriculture are also instructed to prioritize coal leasing and expedite environmental reviews to facilitate coal mining on public lands.
