The legislature has been kicking this can for the past year. As it is written it will present some challenges, not just for Pebble, but for nearly every project in the State that requires a shovel. Donlan mine , Fancy new King Cove road. to name a few. I think the HB is written better than the "Initiative" and will allow for projects to go forward, albeit more slowly, IMHO.
=========== "Both the bill and the initiative would likely stop the Pebble Mine project in Bristol Bay, and probably the proposed Donlin Mine north of the Kuskokwim River near the village of Crooked Creek.
The mining proposals involve huge open pits and long-term waste-rock storage. The projects would interfere with salmon, and the bill says developers can’t just propose swapping hatchery fish for wild ones."
