Subpart A General Provisions
Sec. 25.1 Purpose.
The National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 (NEPA), as amended,
directs that, to the fullest extent possible, the policies, regulations,
and public laws of the United States shall be interpreted and
administered in accordance with the policies set forth in NEPA. All
agencies of the Federal Government shall comply with the procedures in
section 102(2) of NEPA except where compliance would be inconsistent
with other statutory requirements. The regulations in this part
implement section 102(2) of NEPA in a manner that is consistent with
FDA's authority under the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and the
Public Health Service Act. This part also supplements the regulations
for implementing the procedural provisions of NEPA that were published
by the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) in 40 CFR parts 1500
through 1508 and the procedures included in the ``HHS General
Administration Manual, part 30: Environmental Protection'' (45 FR 76519
to 76534, November 19, 1980).
