A mine of that type and scope, has NEVER been successfully done "safely". There's a lesson to be learned there. You sure as hell don't use an area like the Bristol Bay drainages as an experiment.
I'd like to add that supporting Pebble, just because the greenies are against it, is about as ignorant a position that I can imagine. A bad idea, is a bad idea. I don't give a [bleep] who is for or against it.
