The oil polluters get their gift from Georgie. |
Charles Clusen, director of the Alaska lands project for the Natural
Resources Defense Council, an environmental group, said the leasing
plan rewards friends of the Bush administration in the oil and gas
industry.
From The Associated Press, 11/21/03:

(CBS/AP)
The Bush administration intends to open 8.8 million acres of Alaska's
North Slope to oil and gas development, including areas considered
environmentally sensitive.
The Interior Department was to announce the oil and gas leasing plan
Friday, the day the Senate was taking a critical vote on a massive
energy bill endorsed by President Bush but denying him his top energy
priority: opening an Alaskan wildlife refuge to drilling.
None of the 8.8 million acres are in the wildlife refuge, but they do
include some sensitive areas in Alaska that are important for the
protection of migratory birds, whales and wildlife.
