Summary
NASA is adopting special environmental shortcuts called categorical exclusions (CATEXs) from other federal agencies to speed up reviews for projects that are similar to theirs. This means NASA can move faster on certain activities without extra paperwork, starting February 18, 2026. If you’re involved in NASA projects, expect quicker decisions with no extra costs or delays!
