=== ''Kivalina v. US EPA'' ===
In 2010, the Native Village of Kivalina IRA Council brought suit against the US EPA for failing to adequately address public comments in their permitting of the Red Dog Mine discharge plan under the [[National Pollutant Discharge Elilmination System (NPDES)]].  In 2012, the US [[United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit|Ninth Circuit]] court upheld the decision of the EPA Appeals Board to not review the permit, citing the insufficiency of the Tribe's argument.<ref name="Hansen 2013 Article 10"/><ref>{{Cite web|title=Adams v.
