Background

Recent growth of domestic crude oil production has resulted in an unprecedented expansion of the United States' oil
pipeline network. One of the largest domestic oil pipelines currently in development is the Dakota Acces Pipeline, a
30-inch diameter, 1,172-mile project that would carry crude oil produced in northwest North Dakota to southern Illinois
(Figure 1). The Dakota Access Pipeline is projected to carry 470,000 barrels per day, although its capacity could reach
570,000 barrels per day.
