Salazar explains Utah lease decision to U.S. House panel
At a hearing before the House Natural Resources Committee on Wednesday, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said his agency put 77 leases in Utah on hold after determining that the Bureau of Land Management did not consult as required with the National Park Service on energy leases near Arches and Canyonlands national parks and the Dinosaur National Monument, and that he would not support drilling near those areas.
