Comment to support permanent protections for Bristol Bay!

A bill has been introduced in the state legislature that would permanently protect Bristol Bay’s waters, wild salmon, and salmon-based cultures and economy, from large-scale operations like the proposed Pebble mine. To learn more about the Bristol Bay Forever Act, click here.

Specifically, the bill would make the type of mining most harmful to wild salmon runs, called metallic sulfide mining, off-limits in the Bristol Bay Fisheries Reserve, which is an area that encompasses Bristol Bay’s major rivers, critical streams, and portions of two national parks and one state park.
