"In making this preliminary finding, the director weighed the facts and issues known at the time of administrative review, considered applicable laws and regulations, and balanced the potential positive and negative effects of the proposed mitigation measures and other regulatory guidelines. The director preliminarily finds that the potential benefits of the lease sales outweigh the possible negative effects, and that the North Slope Areawide oil and gas lease sales will best serve the interests of the State of Alaska. The discussion of these matters is set out in the accompanying chapters of this preliminary written finding."-- page 1-1.
