The correct answer is: nonviolent protest.

Explanation:

In 1988, The California Department of Health Services proposed a low level radioactive waste dump Ward Valley in California, in order to attempt to site new nuclear waste facilities. The proposed site would be situated 18 miles from the Colorado River, near the Nevada border in California. This location was chosen because it was considered that the dry soil will keep the waste from the groundwater and the Colorado River.  

Native American tribes prepared a mass nonviolent protests to prevent further destruction of Ward Valley, as this area was home to an endangered species of desert tortoise, considered sacred to some Native American tribes. There were over 200 protesters gathered in the Valley, singing and celebrating the Native American tribes' culture. The activists remained on the territory for a total of 113 days, and later, they continued to pressure the government officials to protect the Valley from the dump.
