Pebble in the News
ANCHORAGE, AK - This morning, the Army Corps of Engineers released Public Notice stating they've received Pebble's mining permit application.
In response to this news and an initial review of the application by Trout Unlimited, Nelli Williams, director of Trout Unlimited’s Alaska Program, released the following statement:
“There is a long history of investors walking away from the proposed Pebble Mine -- and for good reason. It is an ill-conceived, shortsighted project that flies in the face of local people, American jobs, businesses, a majority of Alaskans and millions of hunters and anglers. This widespread and unwavering opposition, on top of numerous other concerns, has long made Pebble a risky investment.
