This is good information. I signed a petition that I hadn't seen before and passed the info on to some groups I belong to. More banks than we thought!!

this is not what i heard:

“The Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) was re-routed through the Standing Rock Reservation after Bismarck's mostly-white residents refused to allow it near their water supply.”

http://www.snopes.com/dapl-routed-throu ... s-said-no/

this is what i heard:

“First, the pipeline would cross right under the Missouri River at Lake Oahe, half a mile north of the reservation. A leak or spill could send oil directly into the tribe’s main source of drinking water. The tribe points out that Dakota Access originally considered a route farther north, upstream of Bismarck, but the company rejected that route, in part, because of the close proximity to the state capital’s drinking-water wells.”

Looks like it's stopped! YAY!

The US Army Corps of Engineers rejected the current route for a controversial oil pipeline crossing in North Dakota, a major victory for the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and environmentalists who had staged months of protests. Read more about the Dakota Access Pipeline: http://u.afp.com/4UHE

Yea, I agree. They will reroute it somewhere else or keep drilling and pay the fines. They've spent a lot of money to get it to where it is right now. They won't give up, IMHO.
