Demand transparency about the risks of the Dakota Access

Tell the Biden Administration: We Need to Know the True Risks
of the Dakota Access Pipeline!

The fight to shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL)
continues. Right now, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is
assessing the environmental impact of this climate-busting
pipeline, but they have kept key stakeholders in the dark about
the true impacts of a potential oil spill.

We already know the pipeline poses a serious ongoing threat to
the Missouri River, including the primary water source of the
Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.

Join frontline Indigenous water protectors calling for
transparency on the risks of the Dakota Access Pipeline. ( [link removed]

Dear NRDC Activist,

Each day the
Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) continues to operate, it violates
Indigenous sovereignty and treaty rights and poses a constant
threat to the Missouri River — a crucial water source for the
Standing Rock Sioux and Cheyenne River Sioux Tribes as well as
much of the United States.

Last year a
federal court ordered the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to
evaluate the environmental impacts of the pipeline before the
project can proceed. But, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is
refusing to make many of their most critical findings public,
especially relating to the effects of a potential oil spill and
the effectiveness of spill response plans.

Showing the
immense risk that this pipeline poses is an important step in the
fight to end the threat DAPL poses to people and the environment.
This information is crucial to understanding the immense risk
this pipeline poses. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has access
to data from the Department of Transportation (DOT) — but they
won't make it public.

Urge the
Army Corps and the Department of Transportation to reveal the
true impacts of a potential oil spill from the Dakota Access
Pipeline on frontline Indigenous communities and the environment
today. ( [link removed]

DAPL crosses
the Missouri River one-eighth of a mile from the Standing Rock
Sioux Tribe Reservation and travels under Lake Oahe, a reservoir
that is the primary water source for the Reservation. The risk of
a spill poses an immense threat to the Reservation drinking water
system as well as crucial fish and wildlife habitats that provide
food for residents of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.

While the
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is assessing the environmental
impacts of the pipeline, the results of which will likely be
revealed next year, the pipeline operator Energy Transfer
Partners (ETP) — a company with a disastrous history of pipeline
safety violations — wants to double the flow rate of the pipeline
to nearly a million barrels a day. This will inevitably put more
pressure on the pipeline, increase the risk of oil spills, and
risk the safety of the Tribes' water sources — and makes it even
more vital that the Army Corps produces a fair assessment of the
impacts of the pipeline in order to head off this threat.

The
continued operation of the pipeline and the lack of transparency
that is playing out in the review is an environmental justice
issue, as the communities being affected the most by the
pipeline's operation and who would be first responders to a
potential spill are being left out of the assessment process.

Please support Indigenous water protectors in their
fight against fossil fuel exploitation and send a letter
demanding transparency around the Dakota Access Pipeline! ( [link removed]
