Summary:

Reviews early history of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) on Alaska's north slope, administered by the Department of Interior through the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act. Describes Congressional action pertaining to ANWR and legislative choices facing Congress; and assesses oil, natural gas, and advanced technology energy resources, as well as biological resources, especially caribou habitat. Outlines issues in current legislation, including environmental direction, native lands, revenue disposition options and the Alaska Statehood Act, project labor agreements, oil export restrictions, and compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act.
