Biden set to approve massive oil drilling project climate activists derided as 'carbon bomb': AP sources
Fox News
President Biden is signing off on the Willow Project, a 30-year oil drilling project expected to produce more than 600 million barrels of crude oil and create thousands of jobs.
As part of the decision, the administration is also flatly rejecting the two other drilling sites and a road leading to one of those sites proposed by ConocoPhillips, The New York Times reported. And the Houston-based company agreed to forfeit more than 67,000 acres of drilling rights that it owns for a separate project. Thomas Catenacci is a politics writer for Fox News Digital.
While the DOI will issue the final decision Monday morning, President Biden and senior White House officials have been actively involved in overseeing the approval process.
