“When ANWR—the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge —was created in the area in question that … we’re going to be issuing leases for is area 1002. They call it it’s a small portion of ANWR that’s on the Arctic coast. Just to the east of current like active drilling areas. And that area was not originally supposed to be part of ANWR…overall, I would say, generally, Alaska is positive towards responsible development of the area. I know that the rest of the slope is probably the cleanest produced, like most responsibly produced, oil in the country.” — Tyler Freel, host of Tundra Talk podcast
