Western Energy Alliance has released a study on oil and natural gas development on federal lands in the West, which highlights the adverse impacts of public lands policies on jobs, investment, and state revenue.
Collectively, these projects could create 120,905 jobs, $8 billion in wages, $27.5 billion in economic activity, and $139 million in government revenue every year. The total economic impact of these 22 projects over their anticipated 10-15 year lifespan is $383.5 billion.

On May 4, 2012, the Department of Interior released a draft rule requiring public disclosure of chemicals used in hydraulic fracturing on public and Indian lands. This unnecessary layer of federal regulations will restrict domestic energy development and cost Western jobs & investment.
Western Energy Alliance estimates that the costs will be about $127.2 million annually, and could range as high as $175.7 million.
