Biden admin to suspend oil, gas leases in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge By Matthew Daly Humans are the likely cause of the shift in Atlantic hurricane cycles, a new climate study suggests WASHINGTON (AP) - The Biden administration is suspending oil and gas leases in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge as it reviews environmental impacts of drilling in the remote region that has been the focus of a political fight for decades, according to two people who have been briefed on the administration s plan. The Interior Department order was set to be announced later Tuesday. It follows a temporary moratorium on oil and gas lease activities imposed by President Joe Biden on his first day in office. Biden’s Jan. 20 executive order suggested a new environmental review was needed to address possible legal flaws in a drilling program approved by the Trump administration under a 2017 law approved by Congress.
