Everyone wants to paint the oil company as some big evil corporation. It's not true in this case. The company has gone out of their way to make a safe pipeline that doesn't disturb any historical sites.

"The ruling said Dakota Access hired professional archaeologists to survey the entire route through the Dakotas and much of Iowa and Illinois for cultural resources. When the surveys revealed previously unidentified resources, the company changed the route on its own 140 times in North Dakota alone to avoid them, the judge said, and the corps ordered the company to change the route where it crossed the James River to avoid burial sites there."
