Chuitna Photo Gallery
A gallery of photos of the Chuitna River and its surrounding areas. A campaign against the Chuitna Coal Mine.
A Chuitna Coal Mine would greatly affect the areas seen in these pictures. According to the EPA, the proposed infrastructure would include a mine access road, coal transport conveyor, personnel housing, and an air strip facility. At Ladd Landing, a logistic center and coal export terminal would be built. The coal export terminal would include a 10,000-foot trestle constructed into Cook Inlet for the purpose of loading ocean-going coal transport ships.
PacRim Coal predicts a mine life of at least 25 years. The company owns 20,571 acres of coal leases in the region.
