1. STANDING ROCK SIOUX TRIBE v. UNITED STATES ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS
   District Of Columbia District Court  Case No. 1:16-cv-01534

   Dakota Access PipelineEnvironmental LawNative American RightsNEPAStanding RockTribal SovereigntyWater Rights

   AIThe Standing Rock Sioux Tribe filed suit in July 2016 in the District of Columbia against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers before Judge James Boasberg, seeking to block the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) from being constructed beneath Lake Oahe on the Missouri River, sacred waters adjacent to the Standing Rock Reservation. The tribe argued the Corps had not adequately consulted with the tribe and had failed to conduct sufficient environmental review of the pipeline's risks to the tribe's water supply and sacred sites. The Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe intervened as a plaintiff. Dakota Access LLC intervened as a defendant-cross-claimant. The case generated enormous national attention as thousands of water protectors gathered at the Standing Rock camp in fall 2016. While Judge Boasberg initially denied emergency injunctions, the Obama administration halted the easement in December 2016, which the Trump administration then reversed in January 2017. The case remained in active litigation through at least 2021.
