Interior Dept Would Lead New Natural Resources Agency
President Nixon proposed a major federal reorganization to create the Department of Natural Resources by merging the Interior Department with multiple agencies. The plan would shift national land, water, minerals, energy, and environmental responsibilities under one umbrella, expanding Interior’s size and budget and moving functions from Agriculture, Commerce, Transportation, and the Atomic Energy Commission. Indian affairs would be reassigned pending a future arrangement with tribes and leaders.
