emergency rescues. and so this city is aware of the problem that s for sure. and they are right now preparing for it. they ever these large rescue vehicles that can be brought in. they have helicopters that can come in. they even have in some of the roads they ll have signs that are activated for the floods should they come. you know, we spoke with the army core of engineers, and they are out at two rez vors west of the city that are of particular concern. and the reason that they are is back in 2009 they were rated as needing urgent repairs. and those repairs still haven t happened. there s a $75 million repair project that only just got under way last year. the army corps of engineers is going to man that area 24 hours a day, which is not what they normally do. they are going to watch it very closely. the concern, of course, is that the water rises and either tops those dams or it causes some kind of structural damage. if that were to occur, it would
pipeline. give us the five ws on this. the who, the what, the where, the when, the why. you can see that connects canadian oil with existing pipelines to the gulf of mexico and do refineries. and this is the dakota pipeline and i want to show you that s 1100 miles. 470,000 barrels a day. getting into refineries down there. army core of engineers looking into alternative routes. you saw all of those people protesting day after day after day. they re also worried about water and you can see other of this. look how carefully it were to go around water and the reservation here. they don t like the location of this. is that the only positive
