Busted pipeline poured more than 50,000 gallons of crude into Montana's Yellowstone River.

A survey of Bridger’s pipeline on the company’s behalf in 2011 included a note that the pipe was buried only 1.5 feet beneath the ever-shifting river bottom. That would have put it at heightened risk of breaking.

“This raises questions — which Bridger has yet to answer — about whether Bridger concealed material facts about the condition of the crossing before the Yellowstone spill,” assistant U.S. Attorney Mark Elmer wrote in court documents.Attorneys for Bridger rejected the allegations about conflicting surveys as “conspiracy theories.”“There was adequate depth of cover across the entire crossing,” Salvin said. “We think the government is trying to find something that’s just not there.

Both pipeline businesses are part of Casper, Wyoming-based True Companies, which operates 1,800 miles of line in Montana, North Dakota and Wyoming.

Good article but can Americans please learn to spell litres correctly please?

Damn

I. Am. So. Shocked! But let's get that keystone pipeline back on track so Canadian dirty shale oil can pollute even more of our land and waterways on its way to being shipped iverseas

😡

We should have 1000s more pipelines in critical watersheds. Even if just for fun. They don't leak. 🙄

John Dutton gonna be pissed.

Ffs

I bet its Hunter Biden's fault.

All these oil companies just f’in up shit.

We’re not worthy of this planet. I swear.

The fines are not enough to stop the corrupt polluters ; these paltry fines are just the cost of doing business. Wall Street vultures who destroyed the US/world economy in 2008 will do it again. Until CEOs are held criminally responsible with hefty fines, they will ever stop !!
