Description: This Final EIS addresses potential effects associated with the Bureau of Land Management's implementation of an oil and gas program in the Coastal Plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. The Coastal Plain is predominantly managed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service as part of that refuge. The decisions to be made as part of this Final EIS concern which areas of the Coastal Plain would be offered for oil and gas leasing, the terms and conditions to be applied to such leases, and authorizations for oil and gas activities.

The land area described in this environmental impact statement comprises the coastal plain of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, which lies within the North Slope Borough. Previously, this track of land had been referred to as the 1002 area after Section 1002 of ANILCA. Legislation was passed in December 2017, PL 115-97 to lift a prohibition on oil and gas development imposed by Section 1003 of ANILCA.
