The Pebble Mine Dialogue: A case study in public engagement and the social license to operate - ScienceDirect 

1. Why did multiparty negotiations not result in a viable social license to operate? 
2. What is the core issue (or issues) generating controversy over the mining project? 
3. Assess the role of the independent Keystone Policy Center in facilitating stakeholder 
engagement and dialogue by positioning science as an enhancement of public rationality. 
4. How do you assess the benefits and risks of the mining project? 
5. Does the distribution among stakeholders of those benefits and risks affect the outcome of 
the dialogue? 
6. Can economic benefit-cost analysis address effectively how to compare the net worth of 
salmon to the net worth of mined minerals to the ultimate consumers?
