In the rural areas of the United States, the permitting and rights of way processes often present significant challenges for various stakeholders involved in infrastructure development and public projects. These challenges can impede economic growth, hinder innovation, and limit the delivery of essential services to rural communities.

This discussion is intended for policymakers, government officials, infrastructure developers, community leaders, and all stakeholders interested in enhancing the permitting and rights of way processes in rural America.
