Summary
This bill establishes a Geothermal Ombudsman position and a Geothermal Permitting Task Force within the Bureau of Land Management to streamline the permitting process for geothermal energy projects on federal lands. The Ombudsman would serve as a liaison between BLM offices and applicants, provide dispute resolution, monitor permit timelines, and develop best practices for geothermal permitting. The Task Force would support the Ombudsman's work and may assign personnel from across the Department of Interior to assist with geothermal authorizations, with authority to offer retention allowances to specialized staff.
