Full Analysis
HR8113, introduced by Rep. Maloy (R-UT) on March 26, 2026, and referred to the House Committee on Natural Resources, directs the Secretary of the Interior to conduct a feasibility study on a selective water withdrawal system at Glen Canyon Dam. The study aims to optimize hydropower generation while preventing invasive species entrainment, per existing management plans. The bill authorizes no specific funding; costs are to be paid from appropriated funds, which must be identified within 90 days of enactment. The bill is in its earliest legislative stage, with only two cosponsors and a companion bill (S3743) that has had subcommittee hearings. No market impact is expected until the study is completed (18 months after enactment) and any construction is authorized and funded through separate appropriations. The study itself is a procedural step with no direct revenue or cost implications for publicly traded companies. The affected sectors are limited to utilities and infrastructure, but no specific tickers can be reliably linked at this stage.

Implementing Schedule Policy/Career in the Excepted Service
This executive order expands the Schedule Policy/Career excepted service category, transferring certain federal positions from competitive service to at-will employment to facilitate removal for poor performance or misconduct.

Further Adjusting the Tariff Regimes for Imports of Aluminum, Steel, and Copper into the United States
This proclamation modifies existing Section 232 tariffs on aluminum, steel, and copper imports by expanding the list of derivative products eligible for a reduced 15% duty to include agricultural equipment and residential HVAC systems, temporarily reducing tariffs on mobile industrial equipment, adding aluminum lithographic plates and steel racks to the derivative tariff coverage, and lowering the threshold for products to qualify as made 'entirely' from American metals from 95% to 85%.
Removing Unnecessary and Counterproductive Restrictions on Access to Federal Lands
This executive order rescinds two 1970s-era executive orders (11644 and 11989) that required federal agencies to use vague environmental and social criteria when designating off-road vehicle use on federal lands. It directs the Secretaries of War, Interior, Agriculture, the TVA Board, and other relevant agency heads to initiate rulemakings to remove or revise regulations based on those criteria, aiming to increase access for energy, timber, utility maintenance, and recreation.
