Reverts federal plan intro to pre‑June 2024
The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) released a draft that reverts the Introduction Chapter of the Comprehensive Plan for the National Capital: Federal Elements back to the version that existed before June 2024. That Introduction Chapter sets the planning framework used when agencies review projects and long‑range plans that affect federal buildings, installations, campuses, and master plans in the National Capital Region. The reversion follows Executive Orders 14148 and 14151 which rescinded or replaced E.O. 13985.
NCPC requests public comment on draft update
NCPC has released the draft update to the Introduction Chapter for public review and is seeking public comments. The draft and the Introduction Chapter are available online at NCPC's notices page for review before the public comment deadline.
