Truth About Pebble
MISSION STATEMENT
Truth About Pebble is a non-profit citizens organization based in Alaska that supports the Pebble Project. Our diverse membership is composed of groups and individuals who believe that the proposed copper project can be developed in a manner that protects our important fish, game and water resources.
The proposed Pebble Project presents a tremendous opportunity for economic and social development for local communities and the state.
