☆ Alaska sues Biden administration over canceled Arctic oil and gas leases
  + stars: | 2023-10-18 | by ( Clark Mindock | Cellino | Barnes Firms Battle Former Colleagues Over Fees | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +3 min
Oct 18 (Reuters) - An Alaska state agency on Wednesday sued the Biden administration over its decision to cancel oil and gas leases in the state’s North Slope, one of the country's largest reserves of pristine federal land. Interior Department’s Sept. 6 decision to scrap seven oil and gas leases in Alaska’s 19 million-acre (7.7 million-hectare) Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, an area that is acutely vulnerable to climate change and home to grizzly and polar bears, herds of moose and snowy owls. The canceled leases were sold during the waning days of the Trump administration following a decades-long effort by Alaska officials to open up drilling in the refuge and bolster the state's petroleum-reliant economy. The state agency emerged as the sole bidder for most of the acreage after major oil and gas companies chose to skip the sale in 2020, which generated around $14.4 million. The two other entities that won leases at the 2020 sale withdrew from their holdings in 2022.

☆ Biden Backs New Offshore Drilling in the Gulf of Mexico. Scaled-Back Plan Disappoints All Sides

The five-year plan includes proposed sales in the Gulf of Mexico — the nation’s primary offshore source of oil and gas — in 2025, 2027 and 2029. The three lease sales are the minimum number the Democratic administration could legally offer if it wants to continue expanding offshore wind development. The lease program will guard against environmental damage caused by oil and gas drilling and other adverse impacts to coastal communities, Haaland said. “The (oil leasing) program is definitely informed by the IRA and the connection that the IRA makes between offshore oil and gas leasing and renewable energy leasing,” he said Thursday, referring to the Inflation Reduction Act. The Interior Department can’t sell the rights to drill for oil and gas offshore without first publishing a schedule that outlines its plans.

☆ Native American children may have been forced into assimilation at more boarding schools than previously reported, group says

The National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition released a new list of Indigenous boarding schools Wednesday that surpasses the number of previously reported institutions. The list of Indigenous boarding schools in the United States includes many that have closed and some that are still in operation today. It found the federal government ran or supported 408 boarding schools that forced assimilation between 1819 and 1969. The list also includes 125 schools that are currently open and that were or are considered Indigenous boarding schools. The legislation provided religious organizations with the resources to run more than a hundred schools for Native American children.

☆ Biden Administration Recommends Scaled-Back Alaskan Oil Drilling Project

Ice forms on pipelines built near the Colville-Delta 5 drilling site on Alaska’s North Slope. Biden administration officials recommended moving forward with a scaled-down version of ConocoPhillips ’s multibillion-dollar Willow oil-drilling project in the Alaskan Arctic, but the Interior Department raised concerns about the project, signaling more hurdles ahead. The Interior Department’s Bureau of Land Management issued a final supplemental environmental-impact statement Wednesday that recommends shrinking the project to three drilling sites down from the five ConocoPhillips initially proposed.
