Dear Deputy Secretary Bernhardt: We would you like thank you and the Department of the Interior (DOI) for recent actions that rescinded and revised mitigation policies that far exceeded statutory authority. The oil and natural gas industry continues to follow the statutory mitigation hierarchy to avoid, minimize, rectify, reduce and compensate for the impacts to lands and natural resources from energy development that powers our Nation. We look forward to working with DOI in developing reasonable mitigation policies that allow for the proper balance of species and habitat conservation with responsible resource development.
