on Monday said it was too early to speculate on the cost of cleaning up a 14,000-barrel spill from its Keystone pipeline, as the Canadian company entered into a clean-up agreement with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency .
Keystone is a major export pipeline carrying 622,000 barrels a day of crude from Alberta to U.S. refineries and was temporarily shut down in December after rupturing on Dec. 7 and leaking oil into a creek in Kansas. The pipeline resumed service in late December."We share the EPA's prioritization of safety and mitigating risk to the environment, and we are committed to complying with the agreement as we progress our response, recovery, and remediation," TC said in a statement.
The order said TC must recover oil and oil-contaminated soil and vegetation and contain the further spread of oil the creek. All work must be completed under EPA oversight. "The federal government and the state of Kansas are committed to a thorough cleanup and restoration of the impacted area," EPA Region 7 Administrator Meg McCollister said in a statement.
Why is there no talk of this ?
TC Energy has no plan to clean-up the Keystone pipeline spill anyway
TCEnergy only cares about their profits… Nothing more
Great, another one
Go figure.
