Opponents quickly outlined plans for lawsuits, political pressure and street action.
President Trump breathed new life into the project with one of his first executive actions.
A heavily redacted report mentions "coordinated physical attacks" against the disputed project.

A Native American tribe had argued that an oil-filled pipeline would violate their freedom of religion.
The Dakota Access Pipeline is being installed now, after Trump signed an executive order last month.
