The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe filed a new federal lawsuit Friday against the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), challenging federal decisions allowing the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) to continue operating beneath Lake Oahe, the Tribe’s sole source of drinking water. The lawsuit challenges the federal government’s environmental review and its May 21, 2026, Record of Decision authorizing a new easement for the pipeline’s crossing beneath Lake Oahe.
