This is so well researched and reported, Nat. I don't know where you find the time to do this kind of reporting. It is head and shoulders above most of what passes for journalism these days. I hope the Nugget is running this story.
As usual - very well written and touching on so many of the important points that contribute to a nuanced understanding of complicated issues with significant trade offs.
How deep, how navigable are Port Clarence, Grantley Harbor, Tulsuk Channel and Imuruk Bay? Do they deepen fast or slowly from various shorelines? Would building port facilities straight forward or not?
Thank you for the comprehensive local coverage. Much appreciated.
