On Monday, the Willow Project, a controversial oil drilling endeavor in Alaska, is anticipated to receive approval from the Biden administration.
ConocoPhillips, the company behind the project, has proposed the extraction of up to 629,000 barrels of oil over a 30-year period.
Reports say that the administration is likely to give the green light to three of the four originally proposed drill sites, with the remaining site to be rejected.
The New York Times broke the news of the impending approval and downsizing of the project.
