• The Bad River Band of Lake Superior Chippewa is fighting to remove a 71-year-old oil pipeline from their reservation in Wisconsin.
• The pipeline, owned by Enbridge, is seen as a threat to the tribe’s natural resources, particularly the wild rice beds they depend on.
• The Band’s fight began in 2017 when they refused to renew easements granted to the pipeline company.
• In 2022, a federal judge ruled in favor of the tribe, ordering Enbridge to remove the pipeline within three years.
• Enbridge is appealing the court order and continues to fight to keep the pipeline operational.
