I'm sorry to say that it is highly likely DAPL will dig through anyway and
pay a fine
<http://wearethemedia.tv/opinion/2016/today-is-not-a-victory-for-water-protectors/>
.

What I think we can do is write to our state representatives, the Champaign
county and IL chapters of the ACLU, Sierra Club, etc. about using the legal
agency of 415 ILCS 55 Illinois Groundwater Protection Act
<http://www.ilga.gov/legislation/ilcs/ilcs3.asp?ActID=1595&ChapterID=36>
to *close
down the section of DAPL that runs through Illinois*.

If we can succeed here, then it would be fruitless for DAPL to dig under
the Missouri river. Does anyone know of any other measures we could use?
