Standing Rock Chairman Demands "Leader to Leader" Meeting With Trump

On Wednesday, a federal government website and phone line designed to take public comments—as part of an Environmental Impact Statement process ordered for the Dakota Access pipeline—stopped accepting comments, adding to speculation that the Trump administration was halting the process. But today the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers said the public input period is open, and will be through Feb. 20.

The public is instructed to mail, hand deliver, or email comments. (Send email to gib.a.owen.civ@mail.mil with subject line “NOI Comments, Dakota Access Pipeline Crossing.” Regular mail to Mr. Gib Owen, Office of the Assistant Secretary of the Army for Civil Works, 108 Army Pentagon, Washington, DC 20310-0108.)
