    The Bureau of Land Management has extended a land order originally issued in 1985, protecting a 20-acre area in Sweetwater County, Wyoming, known as the White Mountain Petroglyphs Site. This order prevents the land from being settled, sold, or used for mining but allows for mineral leasing, ensuring protection of valuable Native American cultural resources and natural beauties. The extension will last for 20 years starting January 15, 2025, unless a review determines further extension is needed. This action aims to safeguard the site's cultural, wildlife, scenic, and educational values.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is making sure a special area in Wyoming with cool ancient drawings on rocks, called the White Mountain Petroglyphs, stays protected for another 20 years, so people can't settle, sell, or dig for gold there, but they can carefully take out oil or gas if needed.
