We shouldn't kid ourselves, the effort to mine in BB is far from over. The government, industry, and wall street isn't going to forget about the hundreds of billions of dollars waiting in the ground. Pebble might be done, but the mine will be repackaged and pushed through at some point.
"Northern Dynasty confirmed that the Pebble Partnership will appeal the USACE permitting decision within the 60-day window provided for it to do so."
Aren't the people who were going to work for the mine part of the public? It wasn't contrary to their interests!!!! The NIMBY mentality is KILLING this country!!!
Does this mean we can't re-brand the Bay as Copper River Salmon? In 1998, the National Park Service acquired many of the significant buildings and lands of the historic mining town of Kennecott. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978 and designated as a National Historic Landmark since 1986, Kennecott is considered the best remaining example of early 20th Century copper mining. To commemorate Robert Kennicott efforts on behalf of science, Kennicott Glacier, Kennicott Valley, MV Kennicott, and the Kennicott River were named after him. The town of Kennecott, famous for rich copper mines, was named for its proximity to the glacier. These cheap bastards don't like real money, or, figure out why the richest copper deposit ever discovered in the whole wide world, is related to the most valuable sockeye in the whole State of Denial.
4:43 - I could not agree more, too many hacks try to make every commercial venture a political issue and ignore the science. The state is broke and will remain broke until they pull their heads out of the you-know-wheres.
