Dear Bristol Bay supporters,
Late last Friday afternoon, Alaska’s Governor Dunleavy announced that the State of Alaska will file an appeal in attempt to overturn the permit denial for the proposed Pebble mine.
Alaskans- please call the Governor today at 907-465-3500 and remind him that he represents Alaskans, not a disgraced foreign mining company.
If you live outside of Alaska, please send a note to your elected officials and ask them to support permanent protections for Bristol Bay.
After the permit was denied in November 2020, Pebble quickly responded saying it planned to appeal the decision. Now, Alaska’s own governor is working on behalf of the disgraced Canadian mining company at the expense of Alaskans.
The Governor’s continued support for Pebble shows he is willing to ignore both science and Alaskan interests. Please call his office today (907-465-3500) and tell him to support permanent protections for the region- here’s a script for when you call!
Trout Unlimited’s legal team will continue to monitor the appeal efforts of Pebble Limited Partnership and the State of Alaska while we work to advance permanent protections for the region. Write your elected officials and ask them to support permanent protections for Bristol Bay.
Please consider supporting our work today so that we have the tools needed to defend Bristol Bay from continued efforts from Pebble or the state of Alaska.
Meghan and the Save Bristol Bay team
P.S. All of our elected officials need to know that Bristol Bay is a region of national importance. Please send them a note asking them to support durable protections that the region needs and deserves today.
