OPINION
MATTHEWS, Justice.
INTRODUCTION
The appellants in this administrative appeal are five environmental groups (“Trustees”). Trustees sued the State challenging the State’s sale of oil and gas leases in Camden Bay, Alaska (“Sale 50”). The State’s Department of Natural Resources (“DNR”) determined that Sale 50 is consistent with the Alaska Coastal Management Program (“ACMP”), AS 46.40.010-210. Trustees alleged that DNR’s consistency determination is inadequate. The superior court disagreed and upheld DNR’s consistency determination. Trustees appeal.
