The Highlights
Bottom line, ND MLV 380 will be a huge target for quite some time for the protestors. The
remaining ROW restoration work will need to be completed in order to satiate the
landowners desire to get in this year’s crops, especially in South Dakota, Iowa and Spread 3 in
Illinois.
& I just ran the entire ROW and talked to everyone along the line. A new
assessment will be delivered to everyone. Common trends are permanent fencing, especially
the gates, unusually high in hanging, require very little height due to the covered rollers along
the bottom. The final grade out lack the measure to compliment the fence along with the
ground in order to prevent crawling in. We will double back in a few days to check the
inconsistency with regards to fencing.

The Details
1. NORTH DAKOTA
A. Intel Update
1) FWW (Food & Water Watch) is hosting an anti-DAPL/pipelines-in-general meeting
with guest speakers from Standing Rock and Illinois on the 13th at Loyola. Food and
Water Watch right now, have tons of funding and it's not really the norm. Per
funding - most of the small groups it seems get along with little overheard and
volunteered time and supplies. For example, during today's meeting they divided up
roles for the upcoming People's Climate March. Fundraising wasn't something they
needed. Normally fundraising is a key part of these grass roots movements. They're
hiring buses, there didn't seem to be a limit on how many they could rent, to drive
people to D.C. for the main march. All banners and other art supplies are already
paid for.
2) Today was the one year anniversary of when Sacred Stone Camp was established.
Protesters all over the country checked in on Facebook at camp as a for April Fool’s
day prank.
3) My Comment, there was over 20 vehicles and 60-75 personnel near the camp, my
personnel assessment is that ND MLV 380 is the biggest target because of its
proximity to the reservation. We have HUMINT inside 350.org.
B. Past 24 Hours
1) 1200 ND-400 Land owner stopped by and introduced himself. Very glad we're here

3. ILLINOIS
A. Intel Update
1) Currently, the conversations on Chicago activists’ sites continues to be shift from
DAPL and focusing more and more on other pipeline construction projects. Their
remains a strong focus on DAPL and unresolved legal maneuvering within the courts,
although there remains strong undertones of direct action and targeted vandalism
against valve sites and other established DAPL facilities. Additionally the activists
continue to focus on recent charges being dropped in Morton County.
https://www.facebook.com/WaterProtectorLegal/posts/708931412611593
2) Illinois’ direct action advocates maintain a focus on the current legal battles of the
DAPL protestors and the conversation continues to be of the activists’ perceived
victories in the court room vindicating much of the equipment damage and violence
that was perpetrated by activists at Standing Rock. The lack of successful
prosecutions continues to embolden the direct-action community within the
activists’ efforts. The lack of accountability for illegal efforts and the continued
normalization efforts for targeted vandalism will provide the incentive to push the
boundaries further and sets the conditions for more direct attacks on existing
facilities along the DAPL ROW.
3) Though Standing Rock’s high profile nature and it being held as the high water mark
for activists and will keep DAPL in the forefront of the activists’ movement. The
dispersal of Standing Rock veterans continues to move the Illinois conversation
towards other pipelines. These conversations have primarily bee focused on Sabal
Trail, Trans-Pecos, and ME 2.

This trend will continue through Illinois social media circles. Based on the recent
intentional or inadvertent efforts throughout the internet circles to embrace and
normalize direct action, targeted vandalism, the conversations will likely migrate
more towards direct action based on most recent court outcomes to include the
failure to prosecute in North Dakota and the verdicts in the “Valve Turners” cases,
coupled with the normalization of targeted vandalism. This trend will effectively
threaten not only new construction projects but established lines with very minimal
security measures potentially becoming an economic and ecological threat to the
owners and the communities within the pipeline corridors.
Activists groups have identified a few “imposters” attempting to profit off of the
SABAL pipeline protest effort. They are taking active means to shut their operation
down.
being the principal target of the angst, it appears to be a
fundraising turf war between natives and
, that grew at SABAL Trail Camp.
We have a number of mentions here on NAFPS of non-Native
selling fake Lakota "shamanic" ceremonies, and promoting non-Native frauds like
who calls herself
He's a
ceremony seller and shameon, and recently he's been trying to exploit the pipeline
resistance movement, notably at the Sabal Trail camp in Florida. There are quite a
few posts right now about this on Facebook.
So if folks could compile some of the details on him here, it would be good to have
something to refer people to as right now there are a lot of questions from the new
activists, especially the non-Natives who still don't understand how to spot the
frauds. Thanks.

DAPL will remain the watershed for techniques to be used for direct action, the KXL
project will be the culmination for the application of all learned techniques from the

planning at the grassroots level to large national and international activists groups

the intent of providing monetary and logistical support through various means of

These are generally being facilitated by groups like 350.0RG, which 350.0RG
Chicago is a key contributor of both volunteers and fund raising. Most recently
350.0RG Chicago participated in a nationwide strategy and planning teleconference
that included alliance partners; Rosebud Sioux Tribal Council, Sierra Club, BOLD
Alliance, Indigenous Climate Action, and Rainforest Action Network, to lay out their
strategic efforts primarily against KXL but also covering continuing efforts against the
DAPL line.
(Based on the ?security culture? practices of these organizations this meeting was
prefaced by a closed meeting to develop the public message, anticipating that the
public meeting would be monitored.)

ultimately a late harvest. Continued delays will offer activists more opportunity to
gain sympathy for their cause with what had been supportive of the pipeline project.
Garbage, tires and matting remain strewn along the ROW creating additional anger
with the local population that it remains in such a bad state across the entirety of
the ROW. Illinois activists are beginning to seize on the lack of reclamation and
measuring it against the Standing Rock camps after eviction. ETP should begin some
strategic messaging within the state in order to restore confidence that the company
is concerned about the ecosystem and that the cleanup effort has begun to restore
the land in the fastest means available. Without any type of strategic message effort
on the part of ETP locals who had been supportive, will associate themselves with
the activists and provide a means for continued grassroots activism against DAPL
and future efforts.
