Summary: The U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Alaska, prepared this environmental impact statement (EIS) to evaluate the effects of any proposed Secretarial decision to open lands subject to the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) Section 17(d)(1) withdrawals within the lands described in public land orders (PLOs) 7899 through 7903. PLO 7899 would revoke withdrawals on lands in the Kobuk-Seward Peninsula planning area. PLOs 7900 to 7903 would revoke withdrawals on lands in the Ring of Fire, Bay, Bering Sea-Western Interior, and East Alaska planning areas. Based on the analysis contained in this EIS, the Secretary of the Interior will decide whether to open certain lands currently withdrawn from appropriation under ANCSA 17(d)(1).
