Theyve had a few spills ... more than you would hope to have on a line thats still fairly new, said Carl Weimer, executive director of the Pipeline Safety Trust in Bellingham, Washington, a nonprofit promoting pipeline safety. Keystone has leaked substantially more oil, and more often, in the United States than the company indicated to regulators in risk assessments before operations began in 2010, according to a Reuters review in 2017. Huh, imagine that.... A pipeline that leveraged sheer political partisan football to ram through its approval without adequately studying its environmental concerns first ended up being less reliable than claimed. But why? Why would the industry that stood to massively financially benefit from it opening as soon as possible and who knows that executives are never held accountable for their criminal decisions by the government....lie to us? It...it just doesn't make any sense! <cite>streamofthesky posted [p:929516596] in Keystone p...
