"EMERGENCY #NoDAPL <https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/nodapl> Action! 
Arrestival! Stand with us! Share widely! Rain is a blessing! Dress for 
the weather.

FINAL DAPL EASEMENT APPROVED

Today, Tuesday February 7, the US Army Corps gave notice of intent to 
grant the final easement for the Dakota Access Pipeline to cross the Mni 
Sose (Missouri River). They are skipping the EIS ordered in December, 
and skipping the congressional notification period required by law. This 
is a response to President Trump’s Presidential Memorandum directing the 
Corps to expedite approval of the project.

The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe and Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe will likely 
sue and ask for a temporary restraining order to halt construction while 
the legality of this decision is reviewed in court. In the meantime, 
DAPL will likely start drilling immediately. The media recently reported 
that DAPL says their "best case scenario" timeline is 83 days from 
easement to oil flow.

WORLDWIDE CALL TO ACTION FEB. 8

The Indigenous Coalition at Standing Rock is calling for February 8th to 
be an international day of emergency actions to disrupt business as 
usual and unleash a global intersectional resistance to fossil fuels and 
fascism. Connect with other struggles. Think long-term movement 
building. We are in this for the long haul.

The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe has consistently asked for people to go 
home, and we understand this. Regardless, water protectors remain on the 
ground at the Sacred Stone Camp, determined to stop the black snake, and 
we support them. If you go, expect police violence, mass arrests, felony 
charges for just about anything, abuse while in custody, targeted 
persecution and racial profiling while driving around the area, etc.

We are calling for emergency actions all over the world. PLEASE, THIS IS 
OUR LAST STAND. Please visit everydayofaction.org 
<http://everydayofaction.org/> to find or register an action wherever 
you are. Check out our world action map to join the mass distributed 
actions TOMORROW, February 8th.

Statement from Tom Goldtooth, Executive Director of the Indigenous 
Environmental Network:

“Donald Trump will not build his Dakota Access Pipeline without a fight. 
The granting of an easement, without any environmental review or tribal 
consultation, is not the end of this fight — it is the new beginning. 
Expect mass resistance far beyond what Trump has seen so far.

“The granting of this easement goes against protocol, it goes against 
legal process, it disregards more than 100,000 comments already 
submitted as part of the not-yet-completed environmental review process 
— all for the sake of Donald Trump’s billionaire big oil cronies. And, 
it goes against the treaty rights of the entire Seven Councils Fires of 
the Sioux Nations.

“Donald Trump has not met with a single Native Nation since taking 
office. Our tribal nations and Indigenous grassroots peoples on the 
frontlines have had no input on this process. We support the Standing 
Rock Sioux tribe, and stand with them at this troubling time.”
