Today, the Federal Permitting Improvement Steering Council (Permitting Council) announced the second installment of critical mineral production projects to be featured as FAST-41 transparency projects. This second batch of projects is part of an ongoing series of critical projects receiving the transparency of the Federal Permitting Dashboard in response to President Trump’s Executive Order, Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production.

“The Permitting Council is excited to grow our portfolio of critical mineral production projects with this latest tranche,” says Manisha Patel, Permitting Council Acting Executive Director. “The transparency that these projects will receive as a result of being featured on the Federal Permitting Dashboard will be transformative, allowing stakeholders across government and industry the ability to track the progress of these projects, ensuring a level of accountability in environmental review that is often missing from the traditional process.”

The chair of the National Energy Dominance Council (NEDC) submitted this second batch of critical minerals production projects to the Permitting Council Acting Executive Director in response to President Trump’s Executive Order, Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production. NEDC submitted the initial group of 10 projects on April 4, 2025, and they were added to the Federal Permitting Dashboard on April 18, 2025. This second batch is part of a continual process to provide these critical projects with the transparency afforded by FAST-41 and more projects are scheduled to be added in the coming weeks.

Inclusion on the Permitting Dashboard as a transparency project makes the environmental review and authorizations schedule for these vital mineral production projects publicly available and allows all of these projects to benefit from increased transparency. The public nature of the dashboard ensures that all stakeholders, from project sponsors and community members to federal agency leaders have up-to-date accounting of where each project stands in the review process. This transparency leads to greater accountability, ensuring a more efficient process.

Additional selected projects include:

This list of projects is in addition to the initial list announced April, 18, 2025, with many more expected to be announced soon. The Permitting Council is committed to working closely with the National Energy Dominance Council and other Federal partners to advance President Trump’s bold agenda to make America energy dominant again, and use all necessary resources to build critical infrastructure.
