Biden Administration Releases Record of Decision for Arctic Refuge Leasing Program and Announces Second Mandated Lease Sale in Crown Jewel of America’s Wildlife Refuge System

The Biden administration announced a Record of Decision (ROD) on the Arctic Refuge leasing program and that it will hold the second lease sale in the crown jewel of America’s National Wildlife Refuge System, as set out in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. This once again puts the coastal plain of the Refuge under threat from those most interested in profiting off of it.
