The FEAT Act allows parties to expedite resolution of certain administrative proceedings at the Department of the Interior.
The Free to Exit Administrative Tribunals Act, or FEAT Act, provides a right of removal for parties involved in certain administrative proceedings at the Department of the Interior. Specifically, a party can remove a covered action to a U.S. district court within 60 days of initiation. A covered action is defined as an agency proceeding adjudicated in the Departmental Cases Hearings Division or the Interior Board of Land Appeals. The bill ensures that any such action removed to a district court is reviewed de novo.
