BLM manages 23 million acres in the National Petroleum Reserve-Alaska (NPR-A).

In 1998, BLM completed a plan for the Northeast NPR-A (4.6 million acres). BLM amended this plan from 2003-2006, and completed a Final Supplemental plan for Northeast NPR-A in May 2008.
In 2004, BLM completed a plan for the Northwest NPR-A. BLM conducted oil and gas lease sales from 1999-2006.
A proposal by Conoco-Philips Alaska, Inc. for oil development in the Northeast NPR-A and the Colville River Delta resulted in the completion of the Alpine Satellite Development Plan in 2004.
