Use the Clean Water Act to Save the Bristol Bay Watershed!

Created by M.G. on January 10, 2013

The proposed Pebble Mine is the biggest threat to Bristol Bay, Alaska, its clean waters and wildlife habitat. Fed by nine major rivers and a wetland the size of Kentucky, Bristol Bay is home of the world’s largest sockeye salmon runs. Up to 40 million adult salmon return to spawn in the Bristol Bay watershed each year, and more than 12,000 jobs are tied to the fisheries and natural resources there. The Pebble Mine – which would be 20 times larger than all of the mines in Alaska combined – is the wrong mine in the wrong place, and must not be permitted. - description from Trout Unlimited's Nebraska Program.
