Northern Dynasty: U.S. Army Corps Has Further Extended Deadline to Comment on Future Plans to
September 26, 2023
July 28, 2023 Vancouver – Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (TSX: NDM; NYSE American: NAK) ("Northern Dynasty" or the "Company" or “NDM”) reports that its 100%-owned U.S.-based subsidiary Pebble Limited Partnership (“Pebble Partnership” or “PLP”) has been informed that the Alaska District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (“USACE”) was granted a fourth extension of the deadline to communicate the plan on how the District plans to move forward with its reconsideration of the administrative record after remand. The Division Commander approved the request for the 60-day extension and the revised deadline is now September 26, 2023.
As reported by the Company on May 1, 2023, in a news release entitled “US Army Corps Remand highlights serious flaws in the permitting decision”, the USACE Pacific Ocean Division had given the Alaska District 45 days to review the appeal decision and notify the parties how it plans to proceed in light of the EPA’s Final Determination. The original deadline expired on Friday, June 9, 2023, with subsequent extensions to June 23, 2023, June 29, 2023, and July 28, 2023, prior to this most recent extension.
