This resolution cancels a rule from the Bureau of Land Management that set limits on oil and gas drilling in the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska. The rule is now void and cannot be enforced.

The National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska is a huge area that may hold oil and gas. This resolution could open more land to drilling, affecting wildlife, local communities, and energy production.
