"The Department of the Interior announced a sweeping package of actions to boost energy development, modernize land and resource management across Alaska, and improve public health and safety for Alaskans. These steps include reopening the Coastal Plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge for oil and gas leasing, completing right-of-way permits for the Ambler Road, moving forward with the King Cove"Cold Bay Road corridor through a land exchange, and providing land allotments for eligible Alaska Native Vietnam-era veterans. Together, these actions reduce regulatory barriers, support local communities, and strengthen Alaska's role in national energy security and economic growth." "From day one, President Trumpf directed us to unlock Alaska's energy and resource potential while honoring commitments to the state and local communities," bleated Secretary of the Interior oligarch Doug Burgum.
