Oil & Gas Leasing

In order to be responsive to requests for oil and gas leasing and to comply with the Federal Onshore Oil and Gas Reform Act the Uinta National Forest has been working on an Environmental Impact Statement. This statement will analyze potential impacts that may occur as a result of leasing federal lands for the exploration, development and production of oil and gas. The Draft Environment Impact Statement was released in February 2008.
