The Biden administration’s proposal to prohibit new oil and gas leasing and drilling in the area comes after years of exploitation that’s had devastating health and cultural impacts on Indigenous communities / approx. 30 ish more sites new natural gas drilling which actually breaks bonded underground stone ledges apart and Creates a Void Of Gas once drained is filled with a concoction of a dangerous brew of poison and forever chemicals / while no new oil rigs unless they are setting up sites which is supposed to be on a Total Pause Whilst Awaiting Determination = NOT Before !!! they cannot even start without an impact statement i haven`t heard anyone mentioning any such evaluated through any legal native representation
