Alaska Journal of Commerce, a month ago:

A new payment-in-lieu-of-tax, or PILT, has been agreed to by Teck and borough administrators, and is expected to be approved by the North West Arctic Borough assembly. It would result in payments to the borough ranging from $18 million to $26 million per year for 10 years. The new PILT will be about 30 percent larger than the last agreement. A previous PILT agreement had Teck paying the borough about $8.6 million per year as well as a separate payment of $2.4 million per year to the North West Arctic School District, for which the company received a 50 percent state tax credit. 

According to Teck, Red Dog supports 715 mine-related jobs with $75 million in annual payroll, and the company spends $160 million on supplies within Alaska each year.

More than 600 of the jobs are held by shareholders of NANA Regional Corp., the Alaska Native regional corporation for the area. As of July 2014, royalty payments had topped $1 billion.
