April 2, 2025: Youth Plaintiffs File Motion for Preliminary Injunction to Alaska Supreme Court
The youth plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary injunction at the Alaska Supreme Court to stop the transfer of the Alaska LNG Project to a private developer until their claims have been heard in court.
On March 27, 2025, the Alaska Gasline Development Corporation (AGDC) quietly rushed a transfer of majority ownership of the Alaska LNG Project to the private development company Glenfarne Group in a closed-door, executive session. The meeting took place with less than 24-hours' notice to the public and no notice to the Sagoonick II youth Plaintiffs. After the meeting, AGDC issued a press release confirming it had just entered “definitive agreements for Glenfarne to become majority owner of the Alaska LNG Project” and “lead its development to construction and operations of the entire project.” AGDC has stated that the terms of the agreements will not be released to the public. According to AGDC, the Alaska LNG Project is fully permitted and can move into construction quickly.
