Northern Dynasty challenges EPA’s Pebble Mine veto, calling it illegal and based on speculation.
Northern Dynasty Minerals and its subsidiary filed a summary judgment brief in Alaska federal court on October 3, 2025, challenging the EPA’s veto of the Pebble Mine as illegal, arguing it violates federal law, including the Alaska Statehood Act, and relies on speculative environmental claims rather than scientific evidence.
The company, backed by the State of Alaska and two Native corporations, asserts the EPA misapplied the Clean Water Act and ignored the Final Environmental Impact Statement’s findings.
They contend the veto causes significant economic harm and oppose a requested stay due to the federal shutdown, urging the court to maintain its schedule with a government response due January 2, 2026.
