Targets

We are calling for solidarity actions targeting:

  • The pipeline companies trying to build the Dakota Access Pipeline
  • The financial institutions that are lending the money to build the project
  • Michels Corporation, which is the contractor actually constructing the pipeline

Join an existing action near you, or organize an action of your own.


Companies Behind DAPL

The Dakota Access Pipeline is a project being proposed by a collection of pipeline companies, with a complicated and intertwining structure:

  • Energy Transfer Partners owns a 45% stake in the project
  • Sunoco Logistics Partners owns a 30% stake
  • Phillips 66 owns a 25% stake.

Additionally, Enbridge Energy Partners is attempting to buy a 28% stake in the project and Marathon Petroleum Corp is attempting to buy a 9% stake. These companies are hoping to finalzye this deal by the end of September. We are calling on these companies to pull out of the project or to cancel it outright.

Banks Funding DAPL

The companies building DAPL were able to secure a $2.5 billion loan from a collection of banks to build the pipeline. But the pipeline companies can only access $1.1 billion of this loan until certain progress is made on the pipeline project. So we are calling on these lenders to cut off this line of credit to the pipeline companies and to stop funding the DAPL.

Three of the main lenders are Citigroup, TD Securities and Mizuho Bank.

Michels Corporation

The contractor actually building the pipeline is Michels Corporation, an international company that has worked on several other controversial projects including the Southern Leg of the Keystone XL pipeline. We are calling on Michels to halt construction on the Dakota Access Pipeline until a Environmental Impact Statement on the project is completed and a full consultation with the impacted tribes takes place.

Fredrikson & Byron, 10-Code LLC, G4S and Frost Kennels

We have added the law firm that represents the Dakota Access Pipeline and the security firms that have been hired by the pipeline companies to attack peaceful protestors. We need these institutions to dissociate themselves from the Dakota Access Pipeline and to be held accountable for their dangerous actions.
