1000's of Veterans March on 1806 Bridge To Support #NoDAPL (Dec. 5, 2016)
Dec. 5, 2016 - Drilling started DURING the blizzard! After permit denied.The wind is strong so the audio sucks, but we get the idea of the action.
Dec4-AC denies the final easement permit that would allow Dakota Access Pipeline to drill under the Missouri River of the Sioux land covered under the Ft. Laramie Treaty of 1851.
Energy Transfer Partners, the owners of DAPL have stated just hours later that they will ignore the AC orders and drill anyway. As news hits the camps that DAPL is drilling in blizzard conditions on Dec. 5, over 2,000 US Veterans march to the 1806 bridge followed by those in the SR camps.
