Why do you keep starting the same old topics, posting the same old horseshit?
You suffer from magical thinking. "Duh more I repeats sumthin, the truer it becomes!"
Here's the reality:
New federal data shows the Biden administration approved 3,557 permits for oil and gas drilling on public lands in its first year, far outpacing the Trump administration’s first-year total of 2,658.
Nearly 2,000 of the drilling permits were approved on public lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management’s New Mexico office, followed by 843 in Wyoming, 285 in Montana and North Dakota, and 191 in Utah. In California, the Biden administration approved 187 permits — more than twice the 71 drilling permits Trump approved in that state in his first year.
Once a leaseholder, operator, or designated agent identifies
an oil and gas deposit on a Federal lease, they can file an
application for permit to drill (APD). The BLM posts these APDs on its 30 Day Federal Public Posting Report Page.
www.blm.gov
The lease holder must file an Application for Permit to Drill (APD) with the BLM field office. An APD allows a lease holder to explore the leased land for oil and gas deposits. To apply for an APD, lease holders must submit an Exploration Plan. The Exploration Plan includes information about the well and associated rights of way, roads, pipelines, and production facilities. After the APD is filed, there is a mandatory 30-day public notification period before the permit can be approved.
While reviewing the APD, BLM analyzes the impact of drilling on the environment using an Environmental Impact Statement or an Environmental Assessment in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act. BLM must also ensure that conditions for the National Historic Preservation Act and the Endangered Species Act are met before awarding the permit.
Once granted, the APD expires within two years. During the explore phase, companies pay rent to ONRR.
The Federal Land Policy and Management Act of 1976 and the Mineral Leasing Act of 1920 grant BLM the authority to manage federal lands, including leasing certain lands for oil and gas development. The Oil and Gas Management Program oversees onshore oil and gas wells on federal lands.

There is a big difference between presidents.
And of course WHAT is the difference Between what OBAMA left Trump versus what Trump left Biden?
See you idiots think oh the minute the president takes office things are done !
You have obviously NEVER worked for a major bureaucratic organization like the government. Where
the plans for drilling are either discouraged by the predecessor i.e. when Trump took over from Obama...
SEE this listing...
When Obama left office he signed 11,294 leases vs when he took office Bush had signed 23,569 leases over double what Obama left Trump. And so when Trump took over the leases that were signed were generated under Obama and when Biden took over he had more leases signed then Obama had and as a result the leases signed by Biden were previously started under Trump... remember.. oil exploration requires..lease holders must submit an Exploration Plan.Do you think oil companies will sign more leases in the future under Biden who has sworn to get rid of fossil fuels???
