Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd (NAK)

I dont think the rule of law could end the process at this time. It would be disastrous (not just for NAK) if opinions ended the process. The Senator is playing the middle ground for her political well being, so her comments are taken with a healthy dose of salt.
IMHO

In the meantime, I welcome the buying opportunities she creates.

Murkowski previously submitted language in the fiscal 2020 Interior-Environment spending bill that directed the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), the agency responsible for Pebble’s permitting process, to conduct a more rigorous environmental assessment of the project’s risks.

...more rigorous is not a ban.

Murkowski warned that although Pebble has been “stopped” for now, the project could still receive a permit for construction from the Corps.

...again, not a ban. The senator talks loudly but carries a small stick.
