[{"type":"text","content":" VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / January 8, 2024 / Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd. (TSX:NDM) (NYSE American:NAK) (\"Northern Dynasty\" or the \"Company\") reports that the US Supreme Court has denied Alaska's petition to review its claims that the EPA veto of the Pebble Project was illegal. John Shively, CEO of its 100%-owned U.S.-based subsidiary Pebble Limited Partnership (\"Pebble Partnership\" or \"PLP\") made the following statement regarding the decision: \"While it is a disappointing decision, it is important to note that this is not a comment on the arguments put forward by the state. We have long stated our belief that the EPA has acted outside of its regulatory authority and that remains our position today. The legal issues raised by the state will now work their way through the federal courts. We will also evaluate our legal options in contesting the extraordinary steps the EPA has taken to preemptively stop the Pebble Project. Pebble is an important project for Alaska and the nation. It could create jobs for Alaskans, provide an economic catalyst for the state and provide a much-needed source of critical minerals for the long-term safety and security of the United States.\" About Northern Dynasty Minerals Ltd.
