Show Notes
The Bureau of Land Management is seeking public input on reducing protections around Chaco Culture National Historical Park in New Mexico. The proposed changes include eliminating the current ten-mile buffer zone, which has prevented new oil and gas leasing for two decades. This move aims to facilitate energy development near the UNESCO World Heritage site, despite opposition from Pueblo communities, environmental groups, and New Mexicos congressional representatives. Public comments are due by April seventh, with further opportunities for input following an environmental review.
