Roadmap for Implementing the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law

As required by President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, Bureau of Reclamation, U.S. Geological Survey, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Office of Wildland Fire and the Office of Surface Mining Reclamation and Enforcement have submitted their official spend plans to the U.S. Congress. The Department also submitted spend plans outlining efforts to plug and reclaim orphaned oil and gas wells, as well as a spend plan outlining efforts to restore ecosystems and protect habitats.

The spend plans outline how the Interior Department and bureaus will stand up new programs and expand existing work to deliver results by:

• Building resilience to the devastating effects of drought and wildfires.
• Putting Americans to work to clean up legacy pollution.
• Strengthening Tribal water infrastructure and climate resilience.
• Identifying domestic supplies of mineral resources needed to advance new technologies.

An outline of the Interior Department’s fiscal year 2022 blueprints for implementing the Infrastructure Law can be found on the Interior Department Releases Blueprints for Implementing Bipartisan Infrastructure Law page.
