A bill to authorize appropriations for the Office of Environmental Quality for fiscal years 1987, 1988, and 1989.

Summary

Amends the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 to direct the Council on Environmental Quality to promulgate regulations implementing the National Environmental Policy Act for all Federal agencies, including independent regulatory commissions. Requires each Federal agency to review on a continuing basis and report to the Council on a statistically significant random sample of environmental impact statements prepared by such agency in which measures were specified for the mitigation of the adverse impact on natural resources, including fish and wildlife populations and habitat, that was predicted to result from the action. Requires each review to assess the implementation of mitigation measures and the accuracy and effectiveness of projected adverse impacts and their mitigation. Directs each Federal agency to comply with requirements for an initial review within 24 months of this Act's enactment. Authorizes appropriations for FY 1987 through 1989 for the operations of the Office of Environmental Quality and the Council on Environmental Quality. Grants a State or interstate water pollution control agency another year in which to satisfy certain certification requirements of the Clean Water Act for hydroelectric projects.
