The hearing is over in DC. It looks like the ACOE was called out since they "set aside a NEPA decision for a flawed environmental analysis." Yes, there are wins today but not for everything asked. It appears that the ACOE will have to consult with tribal experts in an open forum, NOT behind closed doors. It also looks like the EIS process will be restarted.

I did ask about recording this comment but I was told the "volunteer" hand wrote the comments, only including something new. I asked because you know who claimed no one said anything before.

You can call the number that Sierra Club provides that explains pretty much what I said here at 202-816-6137. I tried it a couple times but the line connecting to the comment line was busy so I called the comment line directly: (202)456-1111. It took a few tries to get through.

One judge, Boasberg actually, had the gumption to make this ruling against DAPL yesterday, finally his 91-page decision, finally standing up for what's right. Time for a close reading. Oil is stil flowing, but now there's a small chance to stop it. ETP has still mad no statement.  News released worldwide.  Will this recent decision weigh in on Keystone XL, enough to stop this pipeline?  Comments can still be made re: Keystone XL as well as Line 3. Remember the latter is NOT fixing a pipeline but laying another.
