The ANCSA 17(d)(1) Withdrawals Final EIS is completed and available under the "Documents" link located on the left side of the screen.  The EIS focuses on thoroughly assessing impacts to resources that could occur as a result of opening lands subject to the ANCSA 17(d)(1) Withdrawals, including lands within the Bay, Bering Sea-Western Interior, East Alaska, Kobuk-Seward Peninsula, and Ring of Fire planning areas; Alaska. Revocation of existing ANCSA 17(d)(1) Withdrawals have the potential to allow obtaining mining claims (location) or applications for title (entry) under some or all of the public land laws, including the mining laws. The public comment period for the Draft EIS closed on February 14, 2024.  The BLM held several Public Meetings and associated ANILCA 810 Hearings on Subsistence Use in communities potentially affected by the project, and the transcripts from those meetings are posted on the Documents Page.
