Because it can take the state two years to approve a permit application for a survey that needs to be completed in a certain time frame.
Why would it not be great for the state to move in a respectable time table.

Because they should do a thorough & accurate environmental impact study instead of just bulldozing thru, that’s why.
I cannot for the life of me understand why those on the right have such disdain for the environment.
What has any of this to do with removing species from the endangered list, climate change or extinction.
The person was claiming it was hard to remove species that recovered? Climate change is certainly a factor with the extinction of species that are being migrating to other areas.

If it's such a concern to you why did you have children? Are you telling your children not to have children? No? Then you're a raging hypocrite. As the population increases you need to take more land from the animal kingdom causing more stress on their survival and putting them in this position to begin with. But back to the topic at hand, this is nothing. All they did was use the same criteria they use for marine life. If it's good enough for that it's good enough for land life too.
Funny that these laws brought the Bald Eagle back from potential extinction, but Trump supporters don't care about this, and have the audacity to call anyone who questions Trump a commie. What bumper sticker patriots, lol.
Economic interests are apparently far more interesting than anything else.

Lol, your little misinformed rant was amusing. No kids, thank god.
There is significant expense involved with this, it's not just the cost of the review but delays and other things that add up. When you hear of cost overruns for infrastructure projects this is the major reason why. A bridge that should cost $200K ends up costing 1 million. This one of the major reasons for the delays and cost overruns of the bullet train in CA as real world example.
A few years ago Exxon partnered with the Chinese to build a refinery in China, something like 2 years from proposal to completion. If they were building that here after two years they would still be litigating whether they could build it all let alone starting the review process, a project like that may take decade or two here and cost twice as much built to the same exact specifications. I'm not suggesting we lower our standards to the Chinese but realize there is enormous amount of expense doing large infrastructure projects and those costs get passed onto you the consumer/taxpayer.

I'm talking about getting the permit to do the environmental impact study.
The thorough and accurate environmental impact study that must be done before any construction begins.
No where did I say the companies should get the go ahead before studies are conducted.
It should not take the environmental firm 2 years to get a permit issued on a submitted application nor should it take two years to get a permit to preform work once all required surveys and reports have been submitted.
