A federal judge has indefinitely blocked oil and gas drilling on a wildlife refuge that sits next to Great Sand Dunes National Park in south-central Colorado.

U.S. District Judge Walker Miller on Thursday granted a preliminary injunction, ruling environmental groups presented adequate evidence that drilling would cause irreparable harm to Colorado’s Baca National Wildlife Refuge.

Miller’s decision blocks drilling while an environmental lawsuit moves through court.
