Help protect Bristol Bay, Alaska
While the Pebble Mine proposal that threatens to forever harm the pristine salmon waters of Bristol Bay has been sent back to the drawing board, the project is not yet dead.
According to the National TU site, “The President has an important decision to make in the next 4-8 weeks on whether the Canadian-owned, massive proposed Pebble mine will get its key permit to advance in Bristol Bay, Alaska.” Click here to learn more about the mine proposal.
After loud and clear calls from hunters and anglers this spring and summer to stop Pebble, the Trump Administration’s Army Corps of Engineers took a closer look at the Final Environmental Impact Statement for the project and found “under section 404 of the Clean Water Act the project, as proposed would likely result in significant degradation of the environment and would likely result in significant adverse effects on the aquatic system or human environment.” They announced on August 24, 2020 that the current Pebble proposal would not be permitted.
While the announcement sends the project back to the drawing board and up against major hurdles in order to advance, Pebble is still a threat, and we still need President Trump to deny the key permit.
