The National Endowment for the Arts has established a protocol that provides for categorical exclusions under the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) for projects funded under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) that focus on the preservation of jobs (salary support, full or partial, for one or more positions, including support for contracted positions) in the nonprofit arts sector that are threatened by declines in philanthropic and other support during the current economic downturn. The proposed changes would better align NEA implementation of the CEQ NEPA regulations by providing for the efficient and timely environmental review of specific ARRA job preservation actions.

The National Endowment for the Arts (NEA), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(A)].
