Dakota Access pipeline temporarily shut down in legal and ‘spiritual’ battle

July 7, 2020

The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia has temporarily shut down the Dakota Access pipeline for the latest twist in what activists and religious leaders have called a “spiritual battle.”

Oil must stop flowing through the Dakota Access pipeline by Aug. 5, according to a decision Monday (July 6) by Judge James E. Boasberg, who in March ordered a new environmental review for the pipeline.
