Anchorage, AK – The EPA's Environmental Appeals Board has rejected challenges to an air permit EPA granted for a Shell drill ship to work in the Chukchi Sea. The Russian tanker Renda and Coast Guard ice-breaker Healy are moving ahead to deliver fuel to ice-bound Nome. Former Gov. Tony Knowles and others prepare to testify against aerial predator control of grizzly and black bears. Inupiaq filmmaker Andrew Okpeaha McLean will show his feature film "On the Ice" at an Alaska Film Festival tonight.
