阿拉斯加指控拜登限制北极避难所的钻探,声称违反了2017年的一项法律。 Alaska sues Biden over restrictions on drilling in Arctic refuge, claiming violation of a 2017 law.

阿拉斯加已起诉拜登政府,声称它违反了2017年的法律,对北极国家野生动物保护区的石油和天然气钻探租约实行限制。 Alaska has sued the Biden administration, claiming it violated a 2017 law by imposing restrictions on oil and gas drilling leases in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. 诉讼辩称,由于这些限制,开发400,000英亩土地是不切实际的。 The lawsuit argues that these restrictions make it impractical to develop 400,000 acres of land. 同时,最近在庇护所进行的钻井租赁拍卖没有收到能源公司的任何投标,表明费用高和环境问题可能阻碍参与。 Meanwhile, a recent lease auction for drilling in the refuge received no bids from energy companies, suggesting high costs and environmental concerns may be deterring participation.
