"The administration this week gave agencies an April deadline for plans to relocate bureaus and offices outside of the District of Columbia."
"President Donald Trump, who pledged to send up to 100,000 federal workers outside of Washington, could move quickly to eject energy and environmental agencies from the nation’s capital.
The administration on Wednesday directed agencies to submit by April 14 any proposed relocations of bureaus and offices from the nation’s capital to “less costly parts of the country.” Trump also issued an executive order aimed at downsizing the federal government’s real estate footprint as part of a broader push to shrink the size and scope of the bureaucracy.
Energy and environmental agencies — including EPA and the Interior Department’s Bureau of Land Management — could be among the Trump team’s top targets for relocations or downsizing."
