Biden Delivers Disappointment on the Dakota Access Pipeline
The Biden administration announced on April 9, 2021, that it would not immediately shut down the Dakota Access Pipeline, despite a court ruling that its water crossing permit was issued unlawfully. The pipeline transports 600,000 barrels of crude oil daily near the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe's reservation, posing risks to drinking water. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is conducting an environmental and safety review, expected to conclude in early 2022, to determine if the pipeline should be permanently shut down.
