Call for Nominations and Comments for the 2026 Coastal Plain Oil and Gas Lease Sale

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Alaska State Office is issuing a call for nominations and comments on all available unleased tracts for the upcoming Coastal Plain 2026 Oil and Gas Lease Sale. This is a standard step in the leasing process as the BLM prepares to hold the first lease sale under direction in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act. This action also advances priorities in the Executive Order 14153, "Unleashing Alaska's Extraordinary Resource Potential," and Secretary's Order 3422 of the same name.
