Project Description

What's New

December 22, 2025 - The BLM has issued a new Record of Decision (ROD) for the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPR-A) Integrated Activity Plan (IAP). Visit the documents page for additional information.

 

The Department of the Interior signed a new Record of Decision (ROD) on December 22, 2025, to guide management of the National Petroleum Reserve in Alaska (NPR-A). This ROD aligns management of the 23-million-acre NPR-A consistent with the IAP as adopted in the 2020 NPR-A IAP ROD. This new Decision supersedes the 2022 IAP ROD.

 

This decision is based on the NEPA analysis presented in the 2020 IAP Final Environmental Impact Statement and the 2025 IAP environmental assessment (EA) that incorporates new information that has arisen since the publication of the 2020 IAP/EIS. The 2025 IAP ROD is available on the documents page.

 

The final 2025 IAP EA and Finding of No New Significant Impacts (FONNSI) are available on the 2025 IAP EA ePlanning page under NEPA Number: DOI-BLM-AK-0000-2025-0005-EA.
