An updated assessment of Bristol Bay has been released by the Environmental Protection Agency. The summary and full draft are available to read and download via the EPA’s website, with public comments encouraged and welcomed through May 31. “Bristol Bay’s 14,000 jobs and all the people who depend on its clean waters can’t wait any longer,” says Chris Wood, President and CEO of Trout Unlimited. “The Obama Administration has the responsibility under the Clean Water Act to protect the people, jobs and renewable resources of Bristol Bay now.”
