President Joe Biden celebrated his conservation achievements today with a Rose Garden address. The No. 1 item on his list? Blocking the Pebble mine.
“Six rivers meet there, traveling through 40,000 miles of tundra, wetlands and lakes, collecting freshwater and salmon along the way … making this the largest sockeye salmon fishery on all the earth.”
“But our people stood up and fought back to protect what we hold sacred. President Biden heard our voices,” she said. “He and his team listened to Bristol Bay and our many partners across the nation. And together we stopped the Pebble Mine.” “In the end, we used our authority under the Clean Water Act to ban the disposal of mine waste and Bristol Bay watershed, period,” Biden said, to cheers from the invited guests. “That means the mine will not be built.”, but Hurley said mine opponents are still seeking “permanent, watershed-wide protections” through an act of Congress.
