The federal Bureau of Land Management is reviving plans to sell oil and gas leases in pristine wilderness areas in eastern Utah that have long been protected from development, according to a notice posted this week on the agency's Web site.
The proposed sale, which includes famous areas in the Nine Mile Canyon region, would take place Dec. 19, a month before President Bush leaves office. The targeted areas include parts of Desolation Canyon, White River, Diamond Mountain and Bourdette Draw.

Rachel you make me vomit! We need oil, get over it. We should do the responsible thing and drill for oil in our own country so we can get out of debt and spend that extra money on real renewable energy! Wind & solar don't even come close to providing the energy we now use! And Redford, in spite of being awesome, is stuck in the 70's mindset of dirty oil/coal. We can extract oil & coal in a friendlier way than in Redford's day. He lies when he says we have better alternatives, as of now we don't-
