Hell, smaller scale projects that don't involve transportation of a material that would pollute the land and water if it were to spill out require such studies. That would likely be the law to which he was referring, that there needs to be a thorough environmental impact study done.

Which takes years in some cases.

I helped with getting a children's art center built in my home town. It took about 10 months for the environmental stuff, which I thought was silly since it was on a lot where a grocery store used to be. Then during dirt work they found a few skeletons and it held up the process another year while it was determined who they were, where they should be relocated, etc.
